Low Frame Rate While Recording.

OBS says that it's recording at a reasonable frame rate for what I do (50-60 fps) but when I go back to watch the video, its not playing back at the frame rate OBS says that it should be. I didn't have this problem on Windows 7, but now that I've upgraded to Windows 10, I started to have this issue. It only happens when I'm on certain sources (such as Display Capture, Game Capture, Video Capture Device, etc.) It had this problem while recording in a low resolution and a high resolution. I believe that my system can run OBS. My specs are Intel Pentium G630 2.70 GHz, 4.00 GBs RAM, Intel HD Graphics (I don't know what version because I forgot which app to use to see that). I'm using OBS Studio 27.0.1 64 Bit.

Post a logfile from a streaming or recording session where the issue occurred, and we'll be able to diagnose more accurately. There's a pinned thread at the top of the Support forum with instructions on how to provide a logfile.

1. One of your audio devices has a sample rate that doesn't match the rest. This can result in audio drift over time or sound distortion. Check your audio devices in Windows settings (both Playback and Recording) and ensure the Default Format (under Advanced) is consistent. 48000 Hz is recommended.
OBS Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Headphones (2- High Definition Audio Device): 48000 Hz
Microphone (5- TONOR TC-777 Audio Device): 48000 Hz
Microphone (2- High Definition Audio Device): 44100 Hz
2. Run OBS as Admin. Right click on the shortcut, properties, advanced, check box, ok, apply, ok.
3. Set your OBS FPS to 30.
4. Display and Game Capture Sources interfere with each other. Never put them in the same scene (Main Video). Just try to avoid using Display Capture if possible.

Post new log after making those changes.

Your log contains no recording session. Results of this log analysis are limited. Please post a link to a clean log file.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS.
2) Start your recording for at least 30 seconds. Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File. Send that link here.

1. Record to MKV or FLV. If you record to MP4 or MOV and the recording is interrupted, the file will be corrupted and unrecoverable.
If you require MP4 files for some other purpose like editing, remux them afterwards by selecting File > Remux Recordings in the main OBS Studio window or enable Auto Remux in the Advanced Settings.
2. Create a new Scene Collection with 1 Scene and just 1 Game Capture source. Restart OBS, do a recording and post new log.
