Question / Help Video very choppy/laggy

[Nahvus]

So I have a problem (basically what the title says) where my video is very laggy when I record. It is not laggy in-game, but rather in the file OBS makes.

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-nkuQplOww&t=3s
You can see that on the title screen the game is not lagging but in the actual game there is lag.

After looking around the forums for some help, I adjusted some settings such as:
60 -> 30 fps
veryfast -> ultrafast
H264 (AMD) -> x264

and I get even worse framerates.

In OBS, it says I am using only ~14% of my CPU, so I don't think that CPU usage is a problem.

Here is my log files:

Spoiler: Logs

My logs were too long so I posted them to pastebin

Update to current (20.0.1 as of this post)
Switch your renderer back to Direct3d
Turn OFF multi-adapter compatibility hooking in your game capture source

Still stuttering.

Skip to 0:42 for the smooth title screen, 1:38 for stuttering gameplay in-game.

Thank you for the suggestion though

Your system can't handle 1080p60 with the "faster" x264 preset while also playing your game.

 

[Nahvus]

Do you think veryfast would work?

 

[Nahvus]

It does work, but now everything is super blurry/low resolitution. Is there anyway i can fix this while keeping it running at 1080p 60FPS?

 

[Harold]

Simple output mode
Indistinguishable recording quality
FLV format (there are precisely ZERO good reasons to save directly to mp4)
Software low cpu use encoder

 

[Nahvus]

I would use .flv, but my editing software (Adobe Premiere) doesn't support it as far as I know.

 

[Harold]

Solution to that: File-> Remux recordings.

Like I said, ZERO good reasons to save directly to mp4.

I had the same problem, but when i used the windows 10 xbox recording mechanic, the game recorded 60fps with no lag and good quality XDD
