I've been trying a few different things to get rid of the grainy video I get when streaming, but am at my wit's end. I have a pretty powerful PC, and a decent connection so my expectations are high, it seems that when things are moving quickly in-game, that's when I get that grainy video.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!
