Thanks for the tutorial, the whole time i was using the Nvidia NVENC H264 but when using Nvidia NVENC HEVC, it became more crispier and even setting it to P7 i didn't lose any FPS. What i didn't follow though is the Audio as i only set it to 44.1KHz as when i set it to 48KHz it sounded like I was in a cave and everything sounded so weird. Thanks again for the tutorial!
Finally somebody with 2560x1440p settings (what's up with 2K users being discriminated?). No screaming/loud noises during the video, very thorough tutorial and quite helpful video overall. Much appreciated, thanks a lot! I've got loads of footage that I'm not willing to toss into trash just yet, and the issue is encoding which I had no idea would be such a pain in the neck. Had x264 encoding preset (along with some other bad settings, but this probably was the major issue), so it made all my footage incredibly laggy after it had been recorded successfully. Literally, the frames went missing once I checked the saved videos, which gives the impression I was recording on a toaster (lmao). Had relatively stable fps in-game (85-100) throughout the recording process. If there is a way to fix this, I would really appreciate your help. Thank you for this video once again!

I hope you answer my comment because I'm really a new OBS user :D
I have a question. When I go to see my gameplay recording, there’s like a small FPS lag and the video looks choppy in some areas. I did some testing but can’t find the fix. Any tips?
Your explanation is great, but I have a doubt: if 1440p at CQP 20 results in a high bitrate of around 150,000, and TH-cam's maximum is only 60,000, what does that mean? Any ideas? I edited the video and rendered it at 60,000 bitrate before uploading to TH-cam, and it looks good. However, when watching the video in 1080p, it seems like some details are missing. I've seen a lot of TH-camrs' 1440p videos that still look super good when viewed in 1080p.
@@theTPGKing Did you upload to TH-cam in 1440P? Uploading any resolution above 1080p forces TH-cam to encode the video on their end to VP9 codec, which is a much better codec than H.264 that TH-cam uses for 1080p or lower-resolution uploads. You can also upload in 4K to TH-cam which will force VP9 and also downsamples the 4K to 1440p 1080p, 720p etc... This will make the 1080p video on TH-cam appear much more detailed.
@@ExtremelySimplified Yes I uploaded a 1440p video, but when I compared it, the quality still seems low. I’ll give you the link so you can watch this video, I even watched 720p still more detailed, th-cam.com/video/VpKwD5XCXg8/w-d-xo.html I record usually in simple mode, it choose auto, so original video lossless quality but 1440p video bitrate come like 100k, but for youtube only 60,000, more that this we upload in 1440p i think it will be pixelated no use more than that bitrate so help me
in encoder i cant find gpus on cpus it only show AOM AV1 , SVT AV1 , x264 . Also in Encoder settings in rate control when i select CQP half of the settings are missing
HEVC is just h265 and even older cards capable of recording if they can encode in that AV1 is new but most old tech is not supported and you can try but it wont last long and as if at all and dont use CBR cause its consistant meaning if you do nothing the bit rate would pile on anyways thats what VBR or CQP is for they both variable bit rathe but CQP is simplified and would use more then maximum depends on the level cause the lower the CQ level the more bit rate to the point you can have 350mbps bit rate and thats way too much where even 80mbps for 1080p should be enough for 1080p 25mbps is acceptable 50mbps is balanced between ultra and not too much storage space demand but bit rate scales with resolution so keep that in mind if youre not sure it can depend on the game and whats happening on the screen so thats what experimenting and checking stats is for and that includes video editor parameters if its even capable of reading the file cause not all editing software has variaty of encoder and format support and im looking at davinci resolve and i like and hate that software at the same time
Multipass mode is just a way to make use of less bitrate but at the same quality as the Single Pass mode. It's not something I'd recommend turning on for gameplays if you're recording and playing with the same GPU. Use Multi Pass mode for less heavy applications like tutorials or less intensive games. And use Single Pass mode for gameplay videos but keep in mind that the final video will be a little larger than a video encoded with Multi Pass mode.
Thanks for the super informative video! It's got me thinking about NVENC HEVC. When I'm uploading to platforms like TH-cam or TikTok, does the upload get converted to H.264? Appreciate your input on this!
No problem. Actually TH-cam accepts a lot of codecs: MPEG-4, H.264, H.265, VP9 and AV1. (Maybe even other codecs but I don't know for sure). After uploading to TH-cam, TH-cam will convert the video into multiple resolutions (from 8K all the way to 144p). Now, the codec that TH-cam uses depends on multiple factors: 1. The resolution of the video; if the video has a resolution of 1440p or higher, it will get converted to VP9 automatically. Otherwise it will get converted to H.264. 2. the views on the video; if the video got a lot of attraction after publishing, it will likely be converted to VP9 even if the video resolution is lower than 1440p. 3. if the video gets really viral in the first 24 hours, it will get converted to AV1 codec. it doesn't necessarily need to be in the first 24 hours but I've seen a lot of videos that get AV1 very early. AV1 is the best codec out there and it's using less bandwidth while providing higher image quality. As for TikTok, as far as I know, it's converting videos to H.264.
Hi bro nice video, very informative.ihave a question though,i dont have graphics card and i use AMD ryzen 5600g 39hz what settings in encoder you recommend?
@Παυλος Μεταξουλης I don't know for sure about Ryzen encoders, but I think there will be an option called AMD VCE or AMD VCN. If you happened to see it, choose H.264 or HEVC. As for the rest of the settings, try to copy what I showed in the video and experiment with it. Hope this helps.
It's not true that CQ(P) gives you smallest filesize, it's the exact opposite. It's very inefficient, but it gives highest quality out of VBR and CBR. Unfortunately, VBR does not work well on Nvidia nvenc, 2-pass is broken, it does not take entire source in to consideration, only previous frame... that's why VBR most likely will be same as CBR (except no motion will be smaller, but barely will deviate from target VBR bitrate, which is actually performing like ABR...), so yeah, than you only have CQP in OBS, but for recording, I'd use rigaya's nvenc encoder and use QVBR for smallest filesize with highest quality. CQP can easily take 2-3x more bitrate for fast moving while VMAF is not even 1% better than QVBR... ICQ is 2x more efficient/smaller filesize than CQP for a bit better quality, but that's Intel's proprietary solution... For obs streaming and recording, I'd stick with VBR. Max bitrate doesn't do much with this broken implementation anyway, then use QVBR to re-encode in smaller size, but only if you have set it > 25MB/s to get as close as source as possible... That scientific study that is done concluded the same regarding CQP and masses still cheer for CQP, but you already know, the masses are always wrong. Just pissing away 3x storage space for same image quality GG. For streaming, end point has max bitrate, so you can not use CQP anyway, because you have zero control over bitrate.
And to add to that, for recording, you want 0 bframes, no lookahead, no psycho visual tuning, profile main10, single pass, p7 (highest quality), keyframe each second and VBR 25MB/s (which is 200000 kbps). This way, you get highest quality recording. Cut in LosslesCut (notice the 1 second keyframe, this is important when editing video). Then re-encode with rigaya's nvenc encoder with qvbr. Job done. Personally, I use advanced options with ffmpeg additional args with strict_gop=true and b_ref_mode=disabled, the rest of options have been added by OBS, which I used in args as well in the past, so seems like OBS knows about quality. I can only vouch for CQP for high grain recordings, otherwise NEVER use this option. You might as well encode on x264 with cpu for highest settings, there is a reason why avc is not used anymore (too high cost), only for purists it's still used... Personally, I'd go with compression efficiency foremost, followed by quality and lastly encoding speed. A good balance is key, you get highest quality with smallest filesize. Good luck.
@@MrNans Hey Hans. In OBS use VBR, always (unless they add more rate controls, like QVBR). Bitrate to be used is very use case specific, following things must be taken in to consideration: resolution, fps, fast motion, lots of details/grain, etc. I give example what I use to episodically record non-copyrighted iptv broadcast (it outputs 1080p 25fps -> cap card -> obs). Obs settings for this: Output -> Recording [Advanced]: Type = custom output (ffmpeg) | container format = matroska | video bitrate = 25000 kbps | keyframe interval = 5 | video encoder = hevc_nvenc | video encoder settings = gpu=1 preset=p7 tune=hq profile=main10 rc=vbr rc-lookahead=0 b_ref_mode=disabled 2pass=false multipass=disabled strict_gop=true bf=0 refs=16 | audio bitrate = 320 kbps | audio encoder = libopus As you can see, the most important thing is having NO bframes, they detoriate image quality A LOT, but gives better compression, but this is not necessary when streaming or recording to re-encode later on. You can also see I have 2 gpus in my system, I use nvenc chip on second gpu to encode, but if you only got one gpu, remove "gpu = 1". Keyframe each 0.2 second (25 fps / 5 frames => 0.2s), so can easily cut in LosslessCut app parts I need (as name implies is lossless, so no quality loss, i.e. it does not re-encode). Despite main10 profile, it still uses 8-bit, but will convert to 10-bit later on, even when no 10 bits are used, it has access to more address space, thus better compression. 16 reference frames to get best quality, it's compatible with almost any playback device during decoding. Opus codec for audio, it's proven much better than aac. Always use matroska format, it won't corrupt file when intermediately stopped, unlike mp4, which also suffers from index needing to be fixed to start in order to get seek working. EDIT: Typo fixed.
Hey it's me again, just found out earlier i came across the Nvidia Nvenc AV1(656MB) and produces less file size than the Nvenc Hevc(5.60GB). For me it has a slight crispier output also. I have the RTX 4060. What do you think? should i start using the Nvidia Nvenc AV1?
Well, AV1 is the newest codec out there and your GPU can definitely handle it well. But if you're editing your videos on Premiere Pro, just stick with HEVC. Davinci Resolve can work with AV1 videos very effectively if you're using it.
Hey brother i'm currently recording rise of tomb raider but corrupts or lag on about 18 min of recording. i'm using mp4 and cbr bitrate of 60k, does these all settings are good for seamless recording with good quality? i have 4060 i7 13gen hx laptop i guess max setting on obs will be handled perfectly
First off, try to change it to MKV to make the videos not prone to corruption. I'd really suggest changing the quality or CQP to try to choose something like 25 or a higher number to get lower bitrates that can match 60K CBR. Then make sure to choose (P1 Fastest) to lower the encoding pressure on the GPU for a slightly bigger file. It's worth it in my opinion. Then for the Multipass mode just use single pass. Try these settings and see if it's gonna work for you.
The quality is defined by the CQP level. The higher the number, the worse the quality and the lower the file size. The lower the number, the better the quality and the higher the file size. Example: CQP level 20 is higher quality than cqp level 25.
You really helped me thanks 🔥 I have rtx3060ti and i512400F ..16ram I am recording on cqp =1 and keyframe interval = 0 s Encoder H.264 Preset..better quality Is this too crazy😮?
Yes! there's no need for the settings that you have! CQP 1 will give you unnecessarily huge file sizes while you don't benefit from them! Just use the settings I mentioned in the video with HEVC NVENC and CQP 20-17 if you want High quality videos with good file sizes. As for keyframe interval, make it 2 seconds. don't make it 0 because it means that it will put keyframe intervals automatically.
@@ExtremelySimplified thanks i did like you said in the video already👏by the way i watched alot of vids on TH-cam about that subject before but your video was the perfect one and your presentation just straight to the point clearly 👍 Another question ⁉️ are you from alyaman?
Your videos are so underrated mate, wow finally found some good info! What encoder do you advise me ? I stream from a mac mini M2 Pro chipset so my options are x264 and all other software encoder, and for hardware encoder the options are H.264 , HEVC (h265) , and ProRes.. which would you advise as the best for streaming , and which as the best for recording? Thanks mate!!
Thank you. I didn't try Mac encoders myself but from what I've seen online, they are pretty good and quick. I'd suggest you use hardware encoders like h.264/h.265 for both streaming and recording.
@@O_Q2shorts1 I'm not quite sure about this problem but here's a possible fix: Try using multiple variations of 60 FPS from the drop-down menu which they are: 1. Common FPS Values 2. Integer FPS Value 3. Fractional FPS Value
Hi, thanks for the video tutorial. Just a question... And if i have the encoders like NVIDIA NVENC HEVC and NVIDIA NVENC AV1, so what i need to chose, which is better for my RTX 4090?, the HEVC or the AV1?
AV1 is a newer codec and it's better than H.265 (HEVC) in terms of quality while having smaller file sizes. However, since it's new, not many devices can play it back. Since you have an RTX 4090 which supports encoding and decoding with AV1 without issues you can use NVENC AV1 if you're planning on editing the videos ONLY with Davinci Resolve! If you're planning on editing with Premiere Pro, I'd advise you to stick with HEVC.
@@ExtremelySimplified Thank you very much, so for now i will use the HEVC one, and maybe in the future when the AV1 will be supported by more editing programs so i will start use it then
im have an RTX 4070.. i use av1 encoder in obs and my editing app shotcut which supports it. hope itll help you save some file size. while maintaining quality.
I have a gt 730, and the Nvidia option isn't there in encoding settings. What do I do? My CPU is an Intel i3 10th gen, and that gets me really blurry recordings.
Thanks for watching. To be honest, I don't stream and never did. If you mean that you want the settings for streaming online, I'd suggest you use the same settings in the video and changing some settings, First make the preset "P4 Medium Quality". second make the audio bitrate 128 kbps. Again, I've never tried to stream, so I really don't know for sure.

I record usually in simple mode, it choose auto, so original video lossless quality but 1440p video bitrate come like 100k, but for youtube only 60,000, more that this we upload in 1440p i think it will be pixelated no use more than that bitrate so help me
Thanks bro 😎
I recorded a video gameplay it’s 2 hours and the size 16 GB , i hope there way to make the size under 8 GB 😅❤
in encoder i cant find gpus on cpus it only show AOM AV1 , SVT AV1 , x264 . Also in Encoder settings in rate control when i select CQP half of the settings are missing
Thanks, it's working
OH MY GOD THANK YOU YOU ARE A WIZARD YOU SAVED ME
thanks man very helpful
You're welcome 💙
Amazing tutorial buddy!
Thank you💙
Thank you very much ❤
perfect my friend thank you so much :)
No problem my friend 🙏🏻
how can i make it smoother
@@Receptvv what do you exactly mean?
Oh bro you very good man thanks 👍❤
HEVC is just h265 and even older cards capable of recording if they can encode in that
AV1 is new but most old tech is not supported and you can try but it wont last long and as if at all
and dont use CBR cause its consistant meaning if you do nothing the bit rate would pile on anyways
thats what VBR or CQP is for they both variable bit rathe but CQP is simplified and would use more then maximum depends on the level cause the lower the CQ level the more bit rate to the point you can have 350mbps bit rate and thats way too much where even 80mbps for 1080p should be enough
for 1080p 25mbps is acceptable
50mbps is balanced between ultra and not too much storage space demand
but bit rate scales with resolution so keep that in mind
if youre not sure it can depend on the game and whats happening on the screen so thats what experimenting and checking stats is for
and that includes video editor parameters if its even capable of reading the file cause not all editing software has variaty of encoder and format support and im looking at davinci resolve and i like and hate that software at the same time
What is multipass mode use for?
My game fps drop significantly if use two passes (RTX 3070 on RE 7)
Thanks
Multipass mode is just a way to make use of less bitrate but at the same quality as the Single Pass mode. It's not something I'd recommend turning on for gameplays if you're recording and playing with the same GPU.
Use Multi Pass mode for less heavy applications like tutorials or less intensive games. And use Single Pass mode for gameplay videos but keep in mind that the final video will be a little larger than a video encoded with Multi Pass mode.
nice video, thanyou so much

How did you manage to make a 20-minute video weight less than 2GB?
I recorded a one-minute video, and it was almost 400MB
great tuto!!
My one videos keep coming out blurry and I’m not sure why. Any help with this?
idk which stream encoder since i have a microsoft surface go 2 laptop nt really a gaming computer but its one that works for me??
Thanks 😊 😊
Welcome 😊
And when it comes to streaming, can we use the same settings and get good results? Or are these exclusive for recording?
You can also use these settings for streaming.
Great video ima have to try
thanks sooo much!
Thanks for the super informative video! It's got me thinking about NVENC HEVC. When I'm uploading to platforms like TH-cam or TikTok, does the upload get converted to H.264? Appreciate your input on this!
No problem.
Actually TH-cam accepts a lot of codecs: MPEG-4, H.264, H.265, VP9 and AV1. (Maybe even other codecs but I don't know for sure).
After uploading to TH-cam, TH-cam will convert the video into multiple resolutions (from 8K all the way to 144p).
Now, the codec that TH-cam uses depends on multiple factors:
1. The resolution of the video; if the video has a resolution of 1440p or higher, it will get converted to VP9 automatically. Otherwise it will get converted to H.264.
2. the views on the video; if the video got a lot of attraction after publishing, it will likely be converted to VP9 even if the video resolution is lower than 1440p.
3. if the video gets really viral in the first 24 hours, it will get converted to AV1 codec. it doesn't necessarily need to be in the first 24 hours but I've seen a lot of videos that get AV1 very early. AV1 is the best codec out there and it's using less bandwidth while providing higher image quality.
As for TikTok, as far as I know, it's converting videos to H.264.
@@ExtremelySimplified Big thanks for this. Explains a lot. Good luck and keep up the amazing work!
@@grindgame Good luck to you too.
Hi bro nice video, very informative.ihave a question though,i dont have graphics card and i use AMD ryzen 5600g 39hz what settings in encoder you recommend?
@Παυλος Μεταξουλης I don't know for sure about Ryzen encoders, but I think there will be an option called AMD VCE or AMD VCN.
If you happened to see it, choose H.264 or HEVC.
As for the rest of the settings, try to copy what I showed in the video and experiment with it.
Hope this helps.
It's not true that CQ(P) gives you smallest filesize, it's the exact opposite. It's very inefficient, but it gives highest quality out of VBR and CBR. Unfortunately, VBR does not work well on Nvidia nvenc, 2-pass is broken, it does not take entire source in to consideration, only previous frame... that's why VBR most likely will be same as CBR (except no motion will be smaller, but barely will deviate from target VBR bitrate, which is actually performing like ABR...), so yeah, than you only have CQP in OBS, but for recording, I'd use rigaya's nvenc encoder and use QVBR for smallest filesize with highest quality. CQP can easily take 2-3x more bitrate for fast moving while VMAF is not even 1% better than QVBR... ICQ is 2x more efficient/smaller filesize than CQP for a bit better quality, but that's Intel's proprietary solution... For obs streaming and recording, I'd stick with VBR. Max bitrate doesn't do much with this broken implementation anyway, then use QVBR to re-encode in smaller size, but only if you have set it > 25MB/s to get as close as source as possible... That scientific study that is done concluded the same regarding CQP and masses still cheer for CQP, but you already know, the masses are always wrong. Just pissing away 3x storage space for same image quality GG. For streaming, end point has max bitrate, so you can not use CQP anyway, because you have zero control over bitrate.
And to add to that, for recording, you want 0 bframes, no lookahead, no psycho visual tuning, profile main10, single pass, p7 (highest quality), keyframe each second and VBR 25MB/s (which is 200000 kbps). This way, you get highest quality recording. Cut in LosslesCut (notice the 1 second keyframe, this is important when editing video). Then re-encode with rigaya's nvenc encoder with qvbr. Job done. Personally, I use advanced options with ffmpeg additional args with strict_gop=true and b_ref_mode=disabled, the rest of options have been added by OBS, which I used in args as well in the past, so seems like OBS knows about quality. I can only vouch for CQP for high grain recordings, otherwise NEVER use this option. You might as well encode on x264 with cpu for highest settings, there is a reason why avc is not used anymore (too high cost), only for purists it's still used... Personally, I'd go with compression efficiency foremost, followed by quality and lastly encoding speed. A good balance is key, you get highest quality with smallest filesize. Good luck.
@@mrzeus9411 are u using VBR or CQP sir?? and then how many bitrate u use?
@@MrNans Hey Hans. In OBS use VBR, always (unless they add more rate controls, like QVBR). Bitrate to be used is very use case specific, following things must be taken in to consideration: resolution, fps, fast motion, lots of details/grain, etc. I give example what I use to episodically record non-copyrighted iptv broadcast (it outputs 1080p 25fps -> cap card -> obs). Obs settings for this: Output -> Recording [Advanced]: Type = custom output (ffmpeg) | container format = matroska | video bitrate = 25000 kbps | keyframe interval = 5 | video encoder = hevc_nvenc | video encoder settings = gpu=1 preset=p7 tune=hq profile=main10 rc=vbr rc-lookahead=0 b_ref_mode=disabled 2pass=false multipass=disabled strict_gop=true bf=0 refs=16 | audio bitrate = 320 kbps | audio encoder = libopus
As you can see, the most important thing is having NO bframes, they detoriate image quality A LOT, but gives better compression, but this is not necessary when streaming or recording to re-encode later on. You can also see I have 2 gpus in my system, I use nvenc chip on second gpu to encode, but if you only got one gpu, remove "gpu = 1". Keyframe each 0.2 second (25 fps / 5 frames => 0.2s), so can easily cut in LosslessCut app parts I need (as name implies is lossless, so no quality loss, i.e. it does not re-encode). Despite main10 profile, it still uses 8-bit, but will convert to 10-bit later on, even when no 10 bits are used, it has access to more address space, thus better compression. 16 reference frames to get best quality, it's compatible with almost any playback device during decoding. Opus codec for audio, it's proven much better than aac. Always use matroska format, it won't corrupt file when intermediately stopped, unlike mp4, which also suffers from index needing to be fixed to start in order to get seek working.
EDIT: Typo fixed.

Hey, i have one question, can it help me reocrd video from ps3?
Thanks!
No problem!
Hey it's me again, just found out earlier i came across the Nvidia Nvenc AV1(656MB) and produces less file size than the Nvenc Hevc(5.60GB). For me it has a slight crispier output also. I have the RTX 4060. What do you think? should i start using the Nvidia Nvenc AV1?
Well, AV1 is the newest codec out there and your GPU can definitely handle it well. But if you're editing your videos on Premiere Pro, just stick with HEVC.
Davinci Resolve can work with AV1 videos very effectively if you're using it.
@isotechnica yes I am editing my videos on Adobe premiere pro. Haven't tried the DaVinci Resolve but will try it. You earn a sub! Thanks again!
Thanks for turning in 🔥
Thank u so much my graphics card rtx 3060 can i use ur settings
32gb ram processor i7 12 generation
Sure you can!
Mine and yours have the same encoders, you definitely can use the same settings I did in the video.
Hey brother i'm currently recording rise of tomb raider but corrupts or lag on about 18 min of recording. i'm using mp4 and cbr bitrate of 60k, does these all settings are good for seamless recording with good quality? i have 4060 i7 13gen hx laptop i guess max setting on obs will be handled perfectly
First off, try to change it to MKV to make the videos not prone to corruption.
I'd really suggest changing the quality or CQP to try to choose something like 25 or a higher number to get lower bitrates that can match 60K CBR.
Then make sure to choose (P1 Fastest) to lower the encoding pressure on the GPU for a slightly bigger file. It's worth it in my opinion.
Then for the Multipass mode just use single pass.
Try these settings and see if it's gonna work for you.
@@ExtremelySimplified thanks a lot brother but does it loose the quality as well? I want the best results without lag
The quality is defined by the CQP level.
The higher the number, the worse the quality and the lower the file size.
The lower the number, the better the quality and the higher the file size.
Example: CQP level 20 is higher quality than cqp level 25.
I've got a ryzen 7 5700x 32gb ram rtx 4060ti. Is this enough for high or even epic gameplay recording at Full HD with 60 fps?
Of course!
You really helped me thanks 🔥
I have rtx3060ti and i512400F ..16ram
I am recording on cqp =1 and keyframe interval = 0 s
Encoder H.264
Preset..better quality
Is this too crazy😮?
Yes! there's no need for the settings that you have!
CQP 1 will give you unnecessarily huge file sizes while you don't benefit from them!
Just use the settings I mentioned in the video with HEVC NVENC and CQP 20-17 if you want High quality videos with good file sizes.
As for keyframe interval, make it 2 seconds. don't make it 0 because it means that it will put keyframe intervals automatically.

Your videos are so underrated mate, wow finally found some good info! What encoder do you advise me ? I stream from a mac mini M2 Pro chipset so my options are x264 and all other software encoder, and for hardware encoder the options are H.264 , HEVC (h265) , and ProRes.. which would you advise as the best for streaming , and which as the best for recording? Thanks mate!!
Thank you.
I didn't try Mac encoders myself but from what I've seen online, they are pretty good and quick.
I'd suggest you use hardware encoders like h.264/h.265 for both streaming and recording.
good video but im getting 2 times speed on my clips and im using CQP as you told us in the video do you know how to fix it?
That's a weird behaviour! Did you check that it was your playback speed on your video player?
@@ExtremelySimplified ye playback speed is 1x
@@O_Q2shorts1
I'm not quite sure about this problem but here's a possible fix:
Try using multiple variations of 60 FPS from the drop-down menu which they are:
1. Common FPS Values
2. Integer FPS Value
3. Fractional FPS Value
@@ExtremelySimplified it worked thank you!
@@O_Q2shorts1 I'm glad it did! Enjoy creating :)
Hi, thanks for the video tutorial. Just a question... And if i have the encoders like NVIDIA NVENC HEVC and NVIDIA NVENC AV1, so what i need to chose, which is better for my RTX 4090?, the HEVC or the AV1?
AV1 is a newer codec and it's better than H.265 (HEVC) in terms of quality while having smaller file sizes. However, since it's new, not many devices can play it back.
Since you have an RTX 4090 which supports encoding and decoding with AV1 without issues you can use NVENC AV1 if you're planning on editing the videos ONLY with Davinci Resolve!
If you're planning on editing with Premiere Pro, I'd advise you to stick with HEVC.
@@ExtremelySimplified Thank you very much, so for now i will use the HEVC one, and maybe in the future when the AV1 will be supported by more editing programs so i will start use it then
You're welcome 💙
im have an RTX 4070.. i use av1 encoder in obs and my editing app shotcut which supports it. hope itll help you save some file size. while maintaining quality.
If your editing program can handle it, I see no issues in recording with AV1.
1:30 New Fragmented MP4 means that you dont have this issue anymore
Does this work for streaming as well?
Only for recording.
I have a gt 730, and the Nvidia option isn't there in encoding settings. What do I do? My CPU is an Intel i3 10th gen, and that gets me really blurry recordings.
Wooow😱 Thank you🙏
💙
Now obs has new nvec Av1 encorder i have rtx 40 series gpu so should i use Av1 or Hevc
Use AV1 as it's the newest codec.
@@ExtremelySimplified but i cant export AV1 in davinci so if i export AV1 footage to h265 will the quality drop..
TYSM Bro
hey friend, what about best recording settings for streamers? good video :)
Thanks for watching.
To be honest, I don't stream and never did.
If you mean that you want the settings for streaming online, I'd suggest you use the same settings in the video and changing some settings, First make the preset "P4 Medium Quality". second make the audio bitrate 128 kbps.
Again, I've never tried to stream, so I really don't know for sure.
thank you !!
