i need obs settings that wont make the video look like 480p but will also be low file size,

i need settings that for a 20-30 min video it will be maximum 9 or 10 gb

That’s not realistic if you want high fps videos

#

Performance, quality, or filesize. You can only have two

#

Try recording 1080p 60 FPS with VBR at around 50000 kbps, and enable psycho visual tuning and look ahead

#

Play with the settings and it should help

why vbr

#

just use x264

my 15 mins 720p240 fps 13cqp p4 video is 13gb

#

it can be 10gb or less with higher cqp

#

and it’s only 240

#

which may suite some people fine

#

you dont need more

#

having more fps is more important so

#

Recording 300 fps vs 600 fps doesn’t have a huge change in performance for me

#

probably different with smth like bw or hcf

#

i get like 1600-1700 while recording 240

and 1000-1100 while reocrding 960

500-600 is good enough but when you get 1k above its a lot smoother

Or you can record H265 and get twice as good quality at half the size of H264. It's even easier to record, atleast on AMD cards

#

but you are most probably going to have to re-encode video if you are going to do some heavy editing to it. Vegas Pro does not play well with H265

#

not sure how new ones do

#

DaVinci Resolve on the other hand works perfectly with H265 content

#

And last time i used premiere it also worked fine

brittle trench
#

yes it is

@left bobcat is this solved?
