OBS is Recording Blurry Screen

[imvijaygir]

It was working fine till yesterday night. But, as I recorded my screen today and checked the video, the recording is too blurry. See the screenshot below. None of the settings are changed. I have been using the same settings for a very long time now. I am also attaching the log file to get a fast resolution of this problem. I have the latest updated OBS studio 28.0.3 (64-bit).

That's normal. your recording at 2500kbps
Keep it simple. Run the Auto-configuration Wizard (tools menu) and apply the settigns. Restart OBS. Yes, don't do anything else but restart OBS.
Now please do a test as is, do not change anything. Try using a different quality from the presets in simple output mode.
With your computer you should be able to record at 1080p 60 fps and at a good quality.

Keep it simple.

Okay, I will try that. But I have been using the same settings for a very long time now. How does the OBS behaviour change over night without changing anything?

Just guessing, you probably deleted one 0 by mistake. Instead of the actual 2,500 kbps used to be 25,000 kbps.
Unless the issue is on the GPU drivers, which you solve it doing a clean install: https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/performing-a-clean-gpu-driver-installation.65/

I don't need the 4k. I have been using 2500 kbps since the start. Have tested different bitrates, and it goes laggy.

Wow I just opened OBS after a few hours and did not change a single thing, it got resolved all by itself. That is very weird. I did not even reboot the system.

Putting both "Base (Canvas) Resolution" and "Output (Scaled) Resolution" to the value of Display resolution (Full Screen) which is Recommended in Windows Display Settings worked for me. Now I can record full screen without any blurriness.
