- The reason obs is not updated is because i run into more issues besides when its not this version.

I've been using 720p but im trying to fix why this happens so i can actually enjoy the quality of the game and record at the same time. Im kinda fed up and want a solution
If you have any ideas on how to reduce CPU and GPU rendering lag that would be appreciated.

Some More Info: PS5 Console. i want to play in a higher resolution than 720p and export at 1920 x 1080 60fps. Exporting is fine its just rendering lag
Im Using an Elgato HD60 S+
Ive been told by elgato that my computer specs are good enough. Just can't find the problem.

1. In Windows 10 versions 1809 and newer, we recommend that "Game Mode" be enabled for maximum gaming performance. Game Mode can be enabled via the Windows 10 "Settings" app, under Gaming > Game Mode.
2. Set your output FPS to 59.94
3. Create a new scene collection with one source (video capture device: Game Capture HD60 S+, no filters)

If you are still having this issue, post a new log.

Make sure the source record plugin is compatible with the (now old) version of OBS you're using. Even better, remove it until you have OBS working as intended.
Use standard fps. Meaning 60.
Watch the videos in a better player other than windows player, like VLC.
Remove filters. In another thread one guy found out that some filters cause issues on latests GPU drivers, being the febraury release the latest that actually works fine for him.
