I wasn't having this bad of an issue before. I used to only miss around 5-7% of total frames, but I tried installing the vertical & casterlabs plugin. After installation I noticed frames were missing about 90%. Uninstalled both plugins, issue was still happening. Reinstalled obs completely and I am still missing around 70-90% of frames. No clue what I broke or how to fix it. Have read through a couple guides online and still am not able to fix it. Any help would be much appreciated.

Logs aren't very good. One of them had an auto config run & OBS was not restarted, bad move.
Rendering Lag is GPU overload. You need to reduce the load.

Sample rate mismatches need to be addressed
Remove the User Option from the 1080p encode
Run your main monitor @ 120HZ, all others @ 60HZ. This will help to reduce load, see link below for more info.
Crash Sentinel? This is the second time I'm seeing it in a log. I'm not sure what it does or what it may be doing in the background.
