Question / Help re-occurring mouse lag problem in Minecraft only when recording

[topothetop]

This is one of those issues that always manages to come back. Every time I fix it, it comes back. Basically. here is the deal, when i join the game and launch obs studio, it works fine. But when i hit the record button, the mouse lags like crazy. This is very unusual, because I have fixed the problem before, this hasn't happen between the time periods of 2017 to march of 2018, and only my mouse lags ( obs, minecraft and the keyboard doesn't lag) The mouse is a logitech G502, one of the best for games. Wish I could say the same for my laptop...... but either way I fit the settings for the laptop as best as I can. Here is the log ( the last two videos were the one with the mouse lags, ignore the other recordings)

As you can tell by the log files, the lag in the actual recording is not that much, so what is the problem? ( And trust me, the bitrate isn't the problem)

................................. well is anyone going to have a go at the question?

I may have found a solution by myself since I needed to keep my channel running. Basically, if you use a program like Logitech's gaming software or the Razor equivalent of this software, in which it gains full control of all Logitech devices connected to change LED colors and key bindings and such, it can cause a serious issue for people who doesn't have good computers. This is because the CPU usage when recording will take up most of the CPU and direct it towards the game and recording software, leaving the actual program with barely any CPU priority. However, there are two flaws in my theory. 1. I set my priority to high, yet it did not have any affect. 2. The keyboard is a G910, so I do not understand why this was not affected either. But other methods would also be to look for pointer.exe in your task manager and restart it, or just reinstall the driver through the device manager ( type device manager in the windows search bar). And if this does not work, then go to a restore point in your computer where this problem occured. Hope this helps
