Question / Help OBS was working fine yesterday, now my mouse is screwed when I try to stream

So yesterday I finished my stream and went to sleep after upgrading my NVIDIA drivers. I come back on today to find that streaming Black Ops 2 is impossible because for some reason when I move the mouse it will randomly slide (in the game) across the screen thus making it IMPOSSIBLE to play the game. I figured it was a problem with the NVIDIA driver so I did a rollback and still had the issue. So then I upgraded my NVIDIA driver again as well as my AMD driver because I have a secondary AMD GPU I use for my two secondary screens.

I played around with the options in OBS to the fullest, reducing the stream from 720p to 480p to even 360p with very little results (less dragging, but still lagging) setting my CPU preset to the fastest setting possible, EVERYTHING I could do to reduce the amount of resources that OBS needed to encode my stream. This was to no avail. I tried everything I possibly could, even found out that Raptr causes an issue similar to this, uninstalled it, and still have the same problem. I have restarted my computer multiple times.

I know this problem is specific to OBS because I was lagging extremely bad in Dead Rising 3 when I tried to test that game in OBS earlier today, as well as the same mouse sliding problem (in the game) that I had in Black Ops 2. I have absolutely no clue why this is going on or why OBS is behaving like this or what has changed on my system to make it behave like this. I've included logs from today, yesterday, and the day before that when everything was working fine and my stream and game were both smooth and playable.

I really hope that there is a simple fix to this because this is the first time something like this has ever happened and it's really starting to seem like I'm going to have to get a more reliable livestreaming software. I'm completely confused to what the problem could be.

No answer? This has made it impossible for me to stream so this is kind of an emergency. Tell me how to fix this please!

What are you trying to capture in that latest log? There are some problems there, like using window capture with Aero disabled and running your webcam at 1920x1080. You're also getting frequent Warning -- GraphicsCaptureSource::AttemptCapture: Failed to inject library, error code = 5 messages, which means "access denied" for game capture - are you using any other programs that also hook into your game? If that's an error from trying to capture ArcheAge you need to enable the anti-cheat compatibility box for your game capture source.

I actually found the issue, for some reason a program I use to moderate my stream is causing these issues. Thanks for the reply though.
