Possible to do 4k screen recording on 2021 M1 MacBook Pro?

Hi OBS users,

I'd like to do 4k screen recording on OBS as it gives me more powerful audio settings, allowing me to avoid post-production work for digital telephony tutorials I shoot. On my first attempts to record 4k, the video comes out very choppy. However, it seems like Quicktime is able to do 4k screen recording with no choppiness.

Are there settings I can use in OBS to get smooth 30+ FPS 4k screen capture?

Attached are some screenshots of my current settings.

Thanks in advance!

Hi dude,

I also have a macbook pro. I do not think macbooks are capable of 4k screen recordings without degrading the quality.
