Question / Help Video Stuttering

[Parember]

Hi, I'm using OBS Studio to record local videos and running into some issues with the output video stuttering in certain places. Everything in the game runs fine, and the issue shows up primarily on screens that show a large area.

Your log shows some lagged frames pretty consistently in each recording attempt. That's usually due to your GPU being completely maxed out by whatever you're trying to capture and/or not using vsync or some other type of frame limiter.

It'd be GPU then. I just tested something far less graphics intensive and there was absolutely no stutter. Would using QuickSync help with recording GPU taxing games?

 

[Sapiens]

No, Quick Sync would handle the video encoding (what your CPU is doing now) but your GPU still gets used for the same stuff.

Damn, wishful thinking. Alright, thanks for the help.

Try a lower bitrate. I got a vey similar thing when I was at 3500, I now use 1000.

@Legacy99_ Please stop suggesting that. Go read the high quality local recording guide.
