Hello everyone

So, I'm trying to stream at 720p but record at 1080p.
In the "Video" tab both res are set at 1080. In the output tab, I am rescaling the output to the stream, but I am not rescaling the output to the record.
But, every video I record ends up being 720p.
I even trying enable the rescale on the record and set it manually to 1080, but even so the record ended up being in 720p.

My game and my monitor are set to 1080. If I stream at 1080, it also records at 1080.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks already!

In the output settings for recording, for the encoder don't set "(use stream encoder)" but choose one of the available encoders. It can be the same encoder you use for streaming, but it must not be the setting "(use stream encoder)", which will simply write to disk what goes out to the stream, i. e. 720p if you stream 720p.
