I recorded a video and with my settings, (I have 3500 bitrate and my quality is indistinguishable) halfway through the video I noticed that the quality was VERY bad, pixelated whenever anything moved, and then the framerate dropped to basically nothing. I have genuinely no idea what is happening or why, please help. Log file
Pixelated and choppy recording with good settings and bitrate.
