Hello,
I have an issue where the mouse I use (Steelseries Rival 300) seems to stutter for no valid reason when I stream PC games, in particular Destiny 2. I haven't experimented with a bunch of other games, but the issue doesn't occur if I don't have a game running. It's also intermittent, meaning it will be fine for a while, then all of a sudden I'll get some responsiveness spikes and the movements I do somewhat freeze up for a split second then happen all at once. Overall, mouse movement also feels a little jaggier.
I don't need to explain how frustrating it is while streaming an FPS. As a short term alternative, I can use a controller but it's not the same experience.
Things I've tried/extra information:
- I've tried using a different USB hub (I have two on this motherboard), the issue persists
- I've tried using a different mouse (Zowie FK2) and it persisted
- I run the game in Windowed Fullscreen and do a window capture in OBS
- This issue does not occur at all off stream. I don't have significant performance issues otherwise
- I've lowered the mouse polling rate from 1000 Hz to 500 Hz in the Steelseries app, didn't seem to change much
At this point I'm not too sure how to approach this situation, but I'll take whatever suggestions I can get. It's also a little hard to test because I need to be streaming and it seems to pick up after I've been going for a while.
I appreciate all help and ideas.
