I'm pretty technical but I have no idea what's wrong here. This is only happening with Diablo 4. Troubleshooting attempts and specs are in youtube description.

Issue - Game runs completely stable above 200fps as well as every other game I play. The issue is specific to the streaming software. Whenever I move my mouse everything lags and buffers in the streaming software.

Note: I've tried 2 different streaming software. The game continues to run smooth while the streaming software display preview/recording lags and buffers. This does not happen in any other game or program and has never happened to me before. Leading me to believe this is specific to Diablo 4 but I can't find anything on google. Please help!

I'm not sure if I can assist with this- @veeg

15. PCHF can not and will not offer advice for business use or financial gain. This includes streaming services. PCHF only offers assistance for personal use.
 
I'm going to have to leave that call to my advisor, the forum rules might currently be undergoing some revisions I'm not positive though - I'll have to wait until @veeg gives us his decision.
 
And off we go!

Have you tried using just one monitor? Varying refresh rates can cause a myriad of issues.

Furthermore, does the issue occur in the actual recordings? Windows prioritizes the window/tab you're in IIRC, this can cause other parts to look choppy when sharing a screen or streaming.

Does the issue occur in the actual game? I can't tell from the video if the game has a stuttering mouse issue as well.

Great! Thanks jmarket! @Pyro - I will try one monitor asap and get back to you. This does occur in the recordings. This does NOT effect the game in any way, ONLY the recording/streaming software (both Streamlabs OBS & OBS standalone). Note again that this has NEVER happened to me before and doesn't occur with any other program other than Diablo 4.
 
I can't believe it... it ended up being something so simple. Forgot turn on Limit Capture Framerate in OBS 🙃.
