It does however need to keep up, so if you set it to Placebo and have ANY CPU bought at the time of writing this, you will drop frames because it’s too hard to encode Placebo at 25 or 30 fps. It determines how much work can go into making your recording lossless. The CPU preset however will do something. Those last 2 probably also do nothing, but I can’t confirm that yet, so leave them off. Tune you want set to “None” and variable framerate NOT ticked. Profile could possibly decrease file size if set to “high” but will probably do nothing. OBS will now ignore all other interfering parameters for the disk recording and encode lossless video. The only option here that matters is the one labelled x264 Options (separated by space) where you insert “qp=0” in there and that means LOSSLESS. If you’re just recording to disk but not streaming, then this is definitely the way to go. You will be exposed to more dropped frames though, so you need to test this and find your optimal preset for the Streaming tab. If however you don’t have NVENC or Quick Sync but you want to stream AND record, then you can set your CPU preset in the recording tab to UltraFast, so that as much power as possible can be used in the streaming tab. If you are doing so, then maybe use Quick Sync or NVENC to record to your disk so that as much of your CPU can be put into streaming as possible. If you are streaming, then you should be using your CPU to encode the video stream. Don’t’ stress, neither version will give you that kind of absurd data rate for hours of footage. They are just caps, for those tiny fractions of time where the encoding needs huge data rates during things like high-motion. Both numbers are very high, and you will most likely never see your actual final video using that kind of data rate.

The truth is that later versions of NVENC support lossless which is great, but for versions that don’t, their lossy encoding is not as good as Quick Sync. The recording to disk should be done in the game’s resolution and not modified.įor lossy versions, you’ll notice that I recommend 160000kbps for NVENC but only 100000kbps for Quick Sync.
#CQP RECORDING QUICKSYNC OBS 720P#
This disk recording can be a completely different resolution too, so while you’re streaming in 720p you can still save to your disk in 1080p for upload to YouTube later.Īlso note that I recommend MKV files (which you can read about in section 3) and that you do NOT tick the Rescale Output box in this tab. The other thing you can do is record to disk WHILE YOU ARE STREAMING!!! The idea being that you stream live, but because the quality isn’t the best due to bitrate limitations, or you want to do some editing, you can simultaneously record to disk. It’s not as perfect, but it’s so good I believe most people would really struggle to notice any differences. Sometimes this isn’t possible however, so I’ve provided recommendations on what to do if you can’t manage lossless. Ideally you will record lossless video with transparent audio, so that you can use Handbrake later to encode your video into a more manageable size and passthrough the audio. You no longer have the bitrate concerns of Streaming.

This is all about recording to your HDD for keeping or maybe sharing later.
