Need help with stuttering media sources

Hi everyone,

I'm sure they are countless versions of these threads atm but I really cannot wrap my head around what is going on with my media sources. So basically I am learning how to use OBS as part of my desire to become a content creator on Youtube. I am making videos based on video games, so I am using gameplay footage as my sources. These have been recored using the recording app on my PS5 as well as being taken from the internet. My problem is that my sources go from running smooth to becoming laggy without any apparent reason why. I have adjusted my fps settings a few times but it doesn't seem to solve this problem. Would anyone be able to help me in this enquiry? I have attached my log file below to give a clearer picture of what I have done.
