So I've been having problems when I play back my recorded video on OBS. It's all laggy and choppy despite everything being perfectly fine and playable while it's recording.


And here's a log file, as I saw in a few other threads it's important to show.

Something I've noticed, upon watching an older video recorded with an older version of OBS which was absolutely not laggy when I made the video, it is now laggy when viewing it on a different sized monitor (i have a 1080p) as opposed the the 768p monitor it was recorded on. I'm not lagging in game at all while playing even when recording, but for some reason while watching the video it's all choppy. Please help me with this. I need to get to the bottom.

Not sure what your issue might be but for me with obs 18.0.1 I would start streaming and like 10-15min into it my preview would start to get choppy/laggy for no reason and then my recordings/stream would be choppy as well. I had no idea what caused it.. i went back to 17.0.2 just to test it and it works fine so thats what im using now. Maybe try and previous version of obs.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the issue could be either.. :/ no one here seems to be very helpful either, so I don't see myself fixing this anytime soon. I have no idea how to do any of this stuff.

yeah you just gotta test stuff out for yourself. I had my own issues with avermedia lgx and running 144hz took me like a week but i think i finally figured it out will write a thread on it sometime soon. Best of luck to you, hopefully you get it figured out. Just gotta do lots of researching and try stuff out and see if anything helps.

It seems it might have been my source of playback. Windows media player doesn't seem to like my MP4 videos. I tried VLC as per the advice from someone on a different forum and the videos are playing perfectly fine. I also tried playing an .avi file recorded from camtasia on windows media player and it played just fine as well.
