Stream not showing in full frame on Youtube

Good day. I just updated OBS to 31.1.2. When I stream FallOut it is not fully filling out the window in Youtube. My output to my monitor is 1440 16.9 ratio. I have matched the resolution to 1440 and even down graded it to 1080, but I am still not filling out the window in Youtube. My PC runs a 5800x3D and a 4080 video card. I have attached a screen shot of what my stream looks like. I will post a debug file later if needed.

Make sure OBS Settings > Video > Canvas resolution matches your game resolution. To reset any unintended source rescaling, right-click your game source in OBS > Transform > Reset transform.

I gave it a try, but it is still streaming the same way. Here is the log from OBS.

1. The Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling ("HAGS") feature in Windows is currently known to cause performance and capture issues with OBS, games and overlay tools. It's an experimental feature and we recommend disabling it via these instructions.
2. Set the OBS audio sample rate to to 48000 Hz.
3. Remove the Display Captures from your scenes and use Game Capture to capture your games. 1 Game Capture per scene.
