Bug Report Recording Issue When I Tab Into A Game.

Whenever I tab into any game that I am recording the game itself will run fine, however the recording will drop in frames a significant amount. I never usually have issues with OBS Studio but have just recently been starting to have this one with it becoming progressively worse as time progresses and updates come out.

I have included two videos showcasing the issue using Overwatch which seems to be taking the most impact from this issue.

Testing this while watching the Task Manager to see how OBS and the game are effecting my PC, memory, disk and CPU never cap, sometimes one or another might reach about 70% but never cap.

I know this cannot be a problem with my specs as I used to be able to record BF4 on maximum settings with no issue and lossless quality, I changed my settings thinking ti might be an issue with my system as can be seen in the first video but yet this problem is just getting worse and worse.

Help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
