So, I'm recording Minecraft, and you'll see what happens in the vid here I made specifically for this.

Also, here's the log:
21:24:47.193: ==== Recording Start ===============================================
21:24:47.193: [ffmpeg muxer: 'simple_file_output'] Writing file 'C:/Users/Broken/Videos/2017-01-04 21-24-47.mp4'...

If you want more of log, tell me


When I was playing, though, everything seemed fine

Please go ahead and post the full log. Here's how.

Without it, my guess is that you could change the encoder to "Software (x264 low CPU usage preset, increases file size)", because the issue is most likely that your CPU cannot handle the load.

Alright, yeah, go with the low CPU usage setting I mentioned and see what that's like :)

base resolution: 1366x768
output resolution: 1364x768

Why is it like that, did you do that? You're missing 2 pixel width, hehe. Change output back to 1366x768 :)

If it's still not enough to use the "low CPU usage"-setting, try changing output resolution to 1280x720.

I tried all of your suggestions, didn't work, so I changed the FPS values down to 20 along with the other suggestions, and It worked! Here's a demonstration if you care:

It's not uploaded yet, but when it is, you'll see it when you go to link.
Edit: It's uploaded now

Limit FPS ingame
In this old laptop I´m using now, I had to limit FPS in Minecraft to 25 FPS to record.
