Here are the settings pages that seemed relevant, set following a beginner's guide: http://imgur.com/a/N5r4Z
They work fine for every other game I have played, but it does not seem to work for Overwatch. The audio is fine in its entirety. The video is also fine when I'm on menus in-game. But as soon as a normal PvP match gets on the loading screen for the chosen map, the video freezes up.
It does seem to jump to another static frame now and then, mainly at the beginning and end of the match. In one test, the hero selection, and then after a time a frame of me leaving the spawn, and in the other, it eventually showed a still of the play of the game at the very end.
I then tried a practice match in the testing map, just me and some bots. This recording was greatly improved, but still froze up at times, for a few seconds. Very choppy.
I looked at another thread for streamers, so I am not sure if this carries over, but it seems a solution for a similar problem on their end was to turn down bit-rate. Is this something I should do? How much would you recommend, or should I just keep stepping down one level at a time until the problem is fixed? This, here, is my theory, but I know very little about this software and I don't want to go tinkering with settings I do not understand with unknown consequences, so I have not tested it yet.
