Question / Help Facecam image gets all messed up after recording

[Joselito]

Hi !
I have a Logitech C920 and I'm trying to record a facecam with my gameplay now.
But the problem is, when I test my image with the lights it looks nice and clean, but when I try to watch it after finish recording, my face get all messed up it looks like 140p vídeo (or even worse), every movement I make with my head or mouth while I'm talking looks like a bunch of little squares.

Also, I set the camera to 1920x1080 and resized it to smaller size to fit on the corner of the screen.

What could it be ?


- Windows 7
- 8GM RAM 1330Mhz
- Core i5
- Gtx 960

Change your recording bitrate selection type to be CRF and use a crf value of 15

I think it worked. Thanks a bunch !


Could you explain it to me ? Why the game quality was good but only the facecam was terrible ?
Is there a way to keep it good with a smaller video size?
12GB for 29min is kind of heavy :O even for 60fps (only the game, the webcam is 30fps).

Now it's good on my computer but once I upload it to youtube, the facecam image gets all messed up :\

Not much you can do about youtube mangling things in re-encoding.

Does it worth a shot to try work around the CRF value ?

Even when I select 1080p60Fps the facecam image gets all messed up like 140p but only the facecam =(
