Question / Help Bad Picture Quality when recording CS:GO

bern

New Member
Okay, so when i try to record some CS:GO, the picture quality is very bad in the video. When the picture is still (e.g. when standing still in game) the quality "settles" for 2-3 econds and the picture is very sharp. But as soon as movement resumes the quality drops again. The quality gets very grainy.

I have tried to record with lower and higher fps. Also tried setting the sources to gaming and window etc. but the quality remains very bad.

Weirdly enough, i can record Full-HD in an app like Google Chrome or generally anything that isn't a game.

Please help me and thank you!
 
I have the same problem, and here is my log

usually open your own thread but in this case... you try to record using nvenc and 1k bitrate theres no way it could in anyway look good.


use at least 10000 bitrate for 1080p30 nvenc recording maybe even with 15000 bitrate
