Question / Help Im having some problems....

[ariapepsi]

So, i recently got a new computer, (Asus, 16 gb ram, 2 gb graphics) and there are some problems I'm having while recording.

The main problem is my Mic quality, im using turtle beach X12's and on my old laptop, the quality seemed fine, now, it picks up what I think is the laptops fan, and in video it seems a lot louder than how loud it actually is. Also, the quality of my voice isnt as good as before.

The second not so severe problem is resolution, when i put the moniter setting (1536 x 864) it doesnt show the whole game (minecraft) in the log u will see that I have 1920 by 1080, but when i use that setting there are giant black bars.

The third (minor) problem is that my the game seems to pretty laggy, more than it should, correct me if im wrong but shouldn't 16 gigs of ram be able to record minecraft with good fps, im not sure how this works, i will try putting the CPU preset to ultrafast

your first problem, try your built in mic and see if you have the same issue. Its probably an internal issue with the mic plug or gain is up to high
second issue press ctrl-f while previewing the stream. It will stretch and fill the stream window.
third you are on a laptop, it might not be able to encode that fast. Make sure you dont preview while recording. And if you dont have any thing else running (just game and obs) and it still laggs, downscale to 720p.
lastly set key frame interval to 2.

thanks for the reply man, i think im going to start recording my commentary in audacity and using the noise removal feature, that seems to work, ur lag fix works pretty well, ive seen a positive change, howvever about the ctrl f thing, it doesnt seem to be working.
