#upscaler downsizes file

yeah
its pretty normal
reencoding + compressing
seems like I will just render it in a higher res right away
whats the point of doing that
thats normal
the upscaler retains the same quality but at a smaller file size
rendering at a higher resolution provides no net benefit
I thought a higher bitrate may also help with the yt compressor being shit
check if the video quality is actually visually degraded in a video player
is there a way to get avc1 or whatever it was called again?
upscale video to 4k
at best vp9
its purely rng for av1
Oki
doesnt really matter
^
I have my encoder settings maxed out in obs (except cqp, its at 11) so yeah
I am kinda confused what makes thr videos look like shit
on youtube?
In obs
why is ur cq at 11
bro
What else should it be?
And bc I try to fix my quality since months xD
show ur videos
@silver grotto is anything wrong with them?
everything besides the h265 and cq 11
Why?
h264 is better
cq 11 is making your files too big for no reason
its pointless
cq 16 is the lowest you should ever n eed
more compatibility
and its just not worth it to use h265
i mean u can rec in obs with h265 and reenccode in smoothie/blur to h264
Ok
will reencoding it with blur make the quality worse?
naturally yes
not particularly noticeable tho
you can just make it upscale in blur using ffmpeg args yk
oki
what should I change in here?
profile baseline b frame 0

just rec in 420

what does that change?
its a long explanation
I have time :D
if you have enough time then read through obs documentations
:(
where can I find the part with profile and b-frames
do research of your own
theres a lot of documents
idk which ones exactly
its probably in encoding or soemthing
ok i found it
b frames are bi directional predicted frames
essentially - they reference both past and future frames to compress bits more efficiently
as for its influence with cqp, bframes would dramatically improve compression efficiency (comes at a cost of performance) because they reduce the need for more frequent keyframes, they smooth motion predict across time but because the bitrate is unconstrained in cqp, the encoder can use bframes aggressively where they make sense
complex motion still gets enough bits and simple motion gets extremely impact bframes
high bframes basically means, better motion continuity, fewer visible compression artifacts, and more stable quality across frames
in cal, increasing max bframes almost always improves quality per file size rather than harming anything (except in-game performance)
the main take away from this stuff is that it's for compression and optimizing bitrate allocation efficiency, the same applies for preset, profile etc...
wrote this a while ago
my brain blew up while reading this
ok
like this?
yea
why should I use the baseline profile tho?
according to my high quality research high would be the best
- my games performance feels way worse (so when using h264 instead of 265)
less performance impact with no change in quality except for extremely minimal change in very random and insignificant moments
When I use 265 and then reencode in 264 (using blur), how much worse would it look? (In cqp "levels")
it really won't look worse
as I said
there is visually very minimal change
you can try it if you want
How much worse should my performance with 264 be?
recording in h264 or what
bro if you just tried it yourself, you would have all thede questions answered already
I did
But Idk if the server I was on just spammed entities
how is this relevant
