Text appears unsharp and fuzzy when playback window is resized

I'm on Catalina and everything is running smoothly and got no issues with quality when I play back a full screen recording in VCL, but I do notice that when I resize the VCL window any text, such as that which is in the application I'm recording, will look poor and almost pixelated. I uploaded a clip to YT and despite the overall quality being good, the text again looks bad.

I noticed other people on YT using OBS to record their screens, and even though text maybe be smaller, it still looks more crispier than mine.

My settings are:

Mkv, x264, VBR @ 60,000 (also tried CRF), CRF @ 20, CPU usage super fast (also tried slow), and profile is set to high. I've also tried main and baseline.

Base canvas and output are set to my best option which is 1080x1920, no downscaling.

Any suggestions?

Have you had a look at the suggestions YT makes for streaming?

Other than that: My MBP 2019 with 2,6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7, AMD Radeon Pro 5300M 4 GB and 16 GB RAM does indeed huff and puff when I stream or record 1080p using YTs suggestions.
