Hi, I've been really struggling with the video quality on my twitch stream through OBS. I've spent hours and hours tweaking different settings and just can't seem to get any real progress. Its not unwatchable by any means but the capture of my actual game play seems notably lower in quality to other streamers playing the same game and using the same twitch mandated bitrate as me. Does anyone have any ideas on this? Is it simply the restrictions on twitch side with the 6k max bitrate to non-partners? I'm playing in 1440p and outputting at 1080p 60fps for twitch.

If you look at the actual stream, the OBS generated elements (cam, overlays etc) look really crisp and nice but the actual screen capture loses a lot of crispness at times, especially during movement. I do get a little of the same effect even when I record at like 40k CBR. Any thoughts?
