Question / Help Video Recording Is Terrible

[jabchile]

So I'm somewhat new to OBS, I've used it a good bit before but i dont really know a lot about how it works.. Recently i tried to record some gameplay of CSGO with it, and when i opened up the video file on my desktop the video had something like 0.25fps. For example, it freezes on one frame for a few seconds, even though the audio for some reason continues and has no issues. To recap, i can hear the game audio no problem continuously, but the video freezes on one frame at a time for a few seconds in a row. I dont really know if it's an issue with my settings, cuz the settings i have are just the ones that made sense to me, idk if theyre right or not.
My specs are as follows:
Ryzen 3-2200G
RX 570 8GB OC
8GB DDR4 @ 2666
480GB SSD

13:41:00.565: ==== Recording Stop ================================================
13:41:00.566: Video stopped, number of skipped frames due to encoding lag: 2580/3175 (81.3%)

turn down your encoder setting.

Oh okay thanks very much i figured out how to do that. While I'm here though, can you tell me what to do to fix the fact that a lot of the time my recording is blurry in a cubic manner, like especially when i move its sorta pixelated?

Right click the video source and check its Scale Filtering. Also under Settings > Video see the Downscale filter option.

Make sure that what you're capturing is in frame. You can force it to be by right clicking the source, and then transform > fit to screen. You could also try stretch to screen.
