Performance issues but only after 5 or so minutes of recording.

[RVRocks]

Hey everyone, I have been scouring the forums looking for a solution to my issues but no dice, I have been trying to get some recording done for a video I am working on. Everytime I start recording it works fine for the first while, typically I will stop eagle-eye watching my preview and then I come back after I die in my game and I see that things have slowed down to dropped frames left and right. BUT! OBS still tells me its recording in 60fps, and I am not sure if I am crazy but it appears my camera feed still runs at 60fps. HERE is my log file, let me know if I did that wrong.

My recording setup is basically baby's first livestream at the moment, a simple PNG border, a camera feed fed through an Elgato, and my game capture, any help would be appreciated, because my head hurts..

update you windows its outdated


17:02:11.858: Game Mode: Off
enable


dont use MP4 it not an save format use MKV with mp4 then you become an interuppt Bsod or Something else the file is corrupt


17:02:14.595: WASAPI: Device 'Headphones (E7 Stereo)' [44100 Hz] initialized
17:02:14.595: [Loaded global audio device]: 'Desktop Audio'
17:02:14.634: WASAPI: Device 'Focusrite USB (Focusrite USB Audio)' [48000 Hz] initialized
look that all audio devices have the same samplerate !

Would any of these things cause issues in OBS? I was told to turn game mode off and the game itself isnt performing badly, just the capture, I record in MP4 because losing the footage doesnt matter to me and I need it to be edit ready.
