Question / Help OBS Low recording quality when rendered

[LeHerpDeeDerp]

I've been streaming with OBS on Twitch off and on for a while now with the best quality I can ask for. Even when I go back to my past broadcasts it looks just as good as when I recorded it; however, if I take said recording and try to render in a program after editing, it's terrible. The quality shrinks to about 360p or 480p. I've been using Sony Vegas Pro and Cyberlink to try and render, but both are bad.I also used Mirillis Action to test a recording and it was much better when rendered, the same goes for when downloaded directly from past broadcasts. So from this it seems to be an OBS problem, but it's odd. Does anybody have a solution? or is it something with the render? When I render I tried both 1080p and 720p but I stream and record in 720p. I know my PC can hold up because it works fine with other software.

OBS isn't the issue here. If the source video (your unedited video) has a good quality, then it's the issue of the Video editing software. You probably just need to fix your settings in those programs.
