OBS only recording 1-30 seconds and is the stopping recording supposed to take a long time to stop?

I've never used OBS or any specific-esque recording system so, things like lagging in the game recordings can be fixed by trial and erro, however, for some reason, OBS only seems to record from 1-6 seconds to 30-40 seconds (46 is the highest it every recorded), despite the video being supposed to be 40-50 seconds or 1-2 minutes long (respectively).

I thought that lowering the output resolution would solve but, it didn't. I also got the encoding overload warning, I don't know if that plays a part to this problem.

The other problem is more of a doubt: I noticed that after stop recording, there's a "stopping recording" which, often times, takes a long time to actually stop and there's time where I swear OBS is recoding the time between Stopping Recording and Start Recording and slapping it on the actual recording time.

Am I doing something wrong/do I have the wrong settings? And, what should be the settings I'm supposed to have?
