Does anyone know how to fix pixelated gameplay when recording PC games? I'm trying to record some Overwatch gameplay but the file ends up being very pixelated.

Studio is the new codebase. You can still use Classic, but Studio has more newbie-friendly settings templates available.

If you want or need to use Classic, follow ALL the steps in the Local HQ Recordings guide here (ONLY if you're recording, not streaming):
https://obsproject.com/forum/resources/obs-classic-how-to-make-high-quality-local-recordings.16/

If you've already done that, post a log from the Help menu from a session at least 5 minutes in length, and we can take a look. Pixelation usually means too low bitrate, which shouldn't be a problem when recording to local disk and not streaming.

The problem has been solved in Classic i believe. Now I want to begin using Studio but the problem is that I have the settings set to Simple on Studio but my game is lagging even before I record. I am playing Overwatch and my frames drop to really low numbers. Is there a way to fix this?
