I use a *fairly* low-end laptop, with a Ryzen 3 3250U + integrated Radeon graphics. Using OBS to record footage, I noticed that the CPU usage is not only high, but that the game would stutter frequently. I double-checked by playing a low-graphics game and that game seemed to run smoothly with minimal CPU usage, so I was wondering if there's anything I could do to make BizHawk run smoother. I have already tried disabling the rewind feature, I have already installed BizHawk prerequisites, and I have also disabled OBS' preview function.

Please use BizHawk's internal AV capture instead. Thread #22681: [Guide] Creating a quick HD encode in BizHawk This will avoid the lagging when you're watching the footage back.
