x264

Sharing a problem and solution for others who will be encountering the same. After updating from 24.0.3 to 25.0.8 (Windows 10/64, update 1909, Intel i5-4770k, GTX970, all SSD storage, 32gb mem) I began having severe problems with "Skipped frames due to encoding lag" ranging from 5% to 15%...

Добрый день, есть ли аргумент для запуска lookAhead для кодера x264? Я могу установить максимальное значение b-кадров, но я также хочу включить lookAhead.

Hi! I wanna record games like Left 4 Dead 2 and wanna edit the material after recording. I dont wanna upload it I just wanna haev some high quality videos of me playing. I wanna record in 1080p , 60fps. Now I have a ton of question :D 1. Which encoder is the best in terms of image quality to...

Hello, I've been using obs for a quite long time, and even longer at using x264, x265 command lines. It's a shame that I've never found out until today, I looked up mediainfo, which shows my custom command lines were never used. One important thing is that x264's profile and tune are from 20...

Hello, I got myself a ryzen 9 3950x for streaming however when i go to stream on the highest presets for cpu i get over 50% of my rendered frames skipped due to encoding lag. When using placebo, very slow or slower presets i get these issues however if i drop it down to the slow preset the issue...

Hey everyone, I'm having issues getting my recording to look as nice as I want it, and rather than making a huge post about all the potential problems, I want to eliminate anything that could potentially be causing the issue. I have Windows 10 running on an internal SSD (C drive), with my...

I can't stream with the x264 encoder. About 5 minutes in, my keyboard and mouse turn off, and my monitor loses signal. I have to restart my computer to regain control. Here is a log file. https://obsproject.com/logs/ha0rqlFV_TDELDcn I am able to stream and record with the AMF encoder without...

I'm using an HP ENVY dv6 Notebook PC and Steam for recording only, no streaming yet. No graphics card. I'd appreciate someone letting me know how to get a slightly sharper image. I don't know what most individual changes do yet but I've tried tweaking one at a time for a sharper image and...

In a nuthshell, I'm trying to bring out the best looking stream possible atm. Yeah you heard it right. My dedicated streaming PC: Ryzen 3900x (12c,24t) with stable (lets say all core) OC on 4400ghz (ccx0 4450, ccx1 4350) 16gb kingston hyperx ram on oc @ 3466mhz GTX 770 (Guess doesn't mean a...

I want to know the difference in image quality on the viewer’s screen between broadcasting using a video card through the NVENC codec and using a processor through the x264 codec. Can someone throw a link to such an experiment? I did not find anything on the Internet. Or maybe someone has the...

Hi All, I started streaming again for the first time in a year yesterday and could not be bothered to set up my streaming PC so decided to have a crack at streaming on 1 PC and considering I was only streaming Path of Exile, my computer handled it fine and my chat said that stream quality was...

Should I be using QuickSync as it nearly hits performance in-game or should I be still using x264? I have been searching around and I think I haven't found the answer yet. And I need another pair of eyes to give thoughts on both encoders Specs i9-9900K GTX 970 16GB 2666MHz Settings will be...

Why with these settings does my computer record unsmooth/stuttery videos? I have tested shadowplay and it works fine but i need OBS for the ability to split 3 different audio channels... Can someone provide me options? im at a loss here. Also i have tried NVENC/NVENC NEW and nothing helps or...

Hello, i checked many forums and topics about this and i am still a little bit confused, so i will try my luck to ask a question here about my stream quality. I am currently using double pc streaming setup with Elgato HD60 Pro and i am not very satisfied with the output video quality on my...

Hello, I noticed that when I cut OBS videos (directly, without re-encoding), the result becomes broken. I just get grey garbled images in VLC. I posted this problem in the Avidemux forum first, but the dev analyzed the original file and found that it has issues...

Since Mid-May streaming with x264 is causing rendering lag but not NVENC. Only happens to the Nvidia system with GTX1080 with 8700k but not the AMD system with R9 Fury with 4770. I was able to stream without any issue. I Know & Tried : Cap FPS Latest driver Scene related Change Encoder settings...

So, I did some tests using x264, and it seems that I can't achieve a good quality. I'm currently running a i9 9900k, I did some stream tests using this config: Preset: Fast and Medium - 10%-30% cpu usage Bitrate: 6k and 8k Keyframes: 2 Profile: High Tune: None/Film/Animation x264 parameters...

Hey peeps, Been at it again and wanted to share another video I posted a bit ago. I wanted to figure out, depending on the bitrate you're able to use, which encoder deals better and offers the better quality. I put the new NVENC encoder up against X264 Medium and set all settings to maximum...

I know there are quite a few of these out there, but the more info the merrier. I'll be doing more with additional benchmarks as well as various bitrates spanning from 3500 to 8000 for reference. Let me know if there's anything you guys would like to see, I've got the hardware and I'm always...

for some reason my x264 at 720p, 6000 bit-rate, fast, 60fps (ryzen 5 2nd gen) looks worse than my NEW NVENC at 720p, 6000 bit-rate, max quality 60fps (gt 730) like isn't that supposed to be the other way around, pls help. I've tried everything including (flashing the bios, driver updates...
