OBS Reporting 0% Dropped Frames, Still Dropping Frames

[Crowes]

I'll try to explain this as best I can for what information I have.

 

I ran an old game today, Planetary Annihilation. This is something my PC can max out at a solid 1920x1080 and 60FPS. I also tried recording it at that resolution and framerate through OBS, and even though the "Dropped Frames" counter constantly sits at 0%, I can see the actual "FPS: " counter making jumps to 1-2FPS, 27FPS, or some other obscure number.

 

I have no idea why this is. I've tried lowering the bitrate from 5,000kb/s to 3,500kb/s, I've tried downscaling to 720p 60fps. I've even checked my hardware usage at the same time, and my CPU doesn't even hit 100%.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

Poorly optimized game. Hardware would need to be more powerful to handle it.

I have the same problem but with Gta 5. Freezes every two second.
