ShadowPlay has many unresolved issues and may be difficult to completely fix.

No webcam input
This GFE feature was removed in the update to NVIDIA App.

Corrupted video
If you're on an old graphics driver, update it first to the latest. If it still is, DDU.

Overly bright/blown out video
Turn off HDR in Windows, NVIDIA App (RTX HDR), and in-game. HDR video can display incorrectly outside of its original environment and is not recommended for sharing.

Video becomes washed out after editing/trimming in a Microsoft app
There's a bad interaction with ShadowPlay videos and Microsoft apps when editing/trimming them. Please use a non-Microsoft app to edit videos.

Game crashes instantly when Instant Replay is enabled or manual recording starts
The game may not be compatible with ShadowPlay. Use another software to record.

Bit rate is extremely high/mismatched
Set an explicit resolution instead of using "in-game", then set the correct quality.

For ultrawide resolutions, use the larger width. The video will always be at the final output resolution or lower. Examples (all result in a video of the display resolution in the first half):
21:9 1080p 2560x1080 = uses 1440p (2560x1440)
21:9 1440p 3440x1440 = uses 4K (3840x2160)
21:9 4K 5120x2160 = consider using "in-game" as 8K (7680x4320) caps your FPS to 30

Dropped frames at high GPU load situations
Please keep in mind that very high resolutions and frame rates may cause dropped encoder frames (e.g. 4K120 or 8K). Unless absolutely necessary, either use a lower resolution (e.g. 1080p120) or a lower frame rate (e.g. 4K60). This also affects other real-time encoding software such as OBS.

Poor video smoothness
Try recording at 120FPS, and/or limit the game's frame rate to any of the following: 30, 60, 120, integer multiples of 60. This also affects other real-time encoding software such as OBS.

If none of the above are relevant and DDU/reinstalling the NVIDIA doesn't help, please try OBS instead.

You can download OBS Studio here, and read the following guides to configure it:
