Question / Help Lag in Video when doing a Local Recording

Same here. Worked for me before. Changed nothing in Settings.
Before chopping:
Now, every Video, tried nearly everything, but it won't stop lagging/stuttering:

Hope you can help guys, i'm really new to OBS, but this Problem exists since 3 days.
If i capture in the menu, there is no stuttering, just ingame or capturing replays.
Have to test it with another game...

Edit: Oooops, forgot to write, that this is just an video problem with the capture, the game runs perfectly from ~55 - 100 FPS, no lag.
I'm recording on the same SATA II SeaGate Barracuda, that the game is installed. Worked before.

You guys are posting two different issues. Be careful to avoid possibly unintentionally hijacking the original poster's issue.

bigfoot796 - Use some downscale in video settings, 1080p is eating just a slight bit more CPU than your system likes.

FurbyC - Use game capture. Make a new thread first though if you still have issues.

Thank you very much, Jim.
Game capture sometimes doesn't recognize the game, but read about it, that it could be an anti-hack protection, like many mmo have.
I disabled aero yesterday and it's working now, but with slow fps.
Sorry for nearly hijacking this thread. I thought, it's the same kind of issue, because i read "local recording" and bigfoot's description of problems was the same as mine.
