I've started recording gameplay of Fire Emblem Engage from my switch, but my recording seems really blurry.At first they were even worse, but I have search around the internet for settings, and it's a bit better now, but still looks kinda blurry(I'm not sure if blurry is the correct word, you can see for yourself later on).
The setup I use is a pretty cheap capture card like this (The country where I'm from does not have Amazon, but it's pretty much this). A HDMI that goes from my switch to a splitter that then has 2 HDMI's into a monitor/PC via USB from the capture card). The thing is, I'm pretty sure the quality that I see in OBS while recording is better then the actual recording afterwards.
I've attached a log file, and I wanted to ask:
Logs : https://obsproject.com/logs/9Cne3ChCVgUcj5W2
Example short video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8Iwh2V2s4I (you can see the blurry characters, edges specifically)
Longer video if you wanna look closer and on actual gameplay(might contain spoilers if you wanna play the game): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsOM_oVn_4M (even in cinematics you can see some blur, so it's not only because of movement from the characters)
A random video, to give an example of one that has a better quality, I dont own it, hope the owner does not mind using him as an example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GL7fXKojIeE ( Go to around 2:30 mins when walking around)
I can provide any further information that might help anyone diagnose my problem, Thanks a lot!

I've attached a log file, and I wanted to ask:
- Might it be some settings or things that I've missed to do in OBS?
- Is it because that capture card(or mine specifically) might not be the best? If this is your answer, can you give me an idea of a more budget capture card(like ~50usd or less?, I know quality will come with higher price, but this one was less then 20, so to 50 might still be an upgrade, I hope)
- Can the fact that I use a splitter affect things? The splitter is powered, so I don't think it should be an issue, as the image I get to the monitor it's really smooth(From one of the HDMI's that get out of the splitter).
