That is definitely a lot more information than I needed but alright haha . It looks like you ' re capturing at 1080 p 60 at a bitrate of 40 Mbps , does that sound right with how you have your capture setup ? If that ' s the case I would suggest lowering the bitrate and seeing if it helps . 40 Mb is MASSIVE overkill since sites like YouRube reencode it down to 16 anyway . I record at 20 Mbps and it looks perfectly fine so try 30 or 20 and see if that solves your problem . If not try dropping from 60 FPS to 30 . My estimation is that your CPU is getting overworked trying to encode that much data . In order to keep the record running its creating glitches . If you record at a lower quality it might be able to handle the workload better . You have to keep in mind that you are using a 5 year old dual core processor to do tasks that would push modern ones . Lowering your overall quality slightly could result in better quality overall .
