Bug Report Video is 'sped up'?

It seems like OBS is somehow capturing my streaming at an increased pace. The audio is noticeably sped up and seems like it drops in and out frequently. The video also seems slightly sped up. I've played with all the settings but advanced so far; I was hoping someone could give me some guidance.

Sorry for the delay in answering!

@micechal: that's probably not the correct way to describe it, it was just the only way I could think of.

Here's the log of what I tried today.

you're getting both frame drops and cpu frame lags.. you should enable aero since you're doing window capture and also go 720p@30 fps ..

the audio bitrate should never go above 128 kbps aac unless you're streaming like a stand still picture with pure music..

lower the bitrate to 75% of your upload speed and leave the buffer as is right now.. if you still have frame lags after all of this put obs on a high priority on advanced settings and also obs.exe process on task manager

I'm afraid I have a silly question: how do I enable Aero? The only option I see for it is 'disable at startup,' which isn't checked.

I changed all the other settings, but this time my log says Aero disabled. I'm not sure why....
