[Lolszakjak]

Hello.
I need help with optymalization in OBS studio. My laptop model is msi gt60 0ng-294us. Btw when i was using obs classic i didnt have a problem with optymalization. I want optymalize it for recording in 1080p eventually 720p. What options should i use?

btw should i use 264x or nvenc? and i am using obs studio 2.0.1, and i like to record gameplays of tf2, overwatch, roblox, and payday 2 with maybe the lowest graphs set on those games

Simple output mode
Indistinguishable recording quality
FLV recording format.
Software low cpu use encoder

No you don't. You think you do, but the reliability of mp4 as a recording format says you REALLY don't.

If you absolutely need mp4 for editing, use file - remux recordings

 

[Lolszakjak]

but i am using hitfilm, what other file types do you think i should use?

 

[Harold]

Please re-read what I posted.

 

[Lolszakjak]

oh ok
BTW should i use converter to convert ready .flv video to .mp4 bcuz hitfilm doesnt supports .flv?

 

[Lolszakjak]

what is Indistinguishable recording quality and Software low cpu use encoder?

 

[Harold]

What converter? if you're talking about one that isn't the remux recordings function in obs, NO.

It's the EXACT settings you should be using in settings - output. Your output mode should be in SIMPLE mode.

i did everything like that and even do the think in the github link and my obs crashes i hav an access to the crash log

 

[Harold]

Crash in the nvidia drivers.

 

[Lolszakjak]

????

 

[Lolszakjak]

ok i updated the drivers and set everything like you said IM NOT USING .flv IM USING .mp4 cuz i cant edit .flv in hitfilm :(

 

[Harold]

USE FLV.

To PROPERLY convert from flv to mp4, use File - Remux Recordings in obs.

DO NOT SAVE DIRECTLY TO MP4.

Record to FLV or MKV. If you record to MP4 and the recording is interrupted, the file will be corrupted and unrecoverable. If you require MP4 files for some other purpose like editing, remux them afterwards by selecting File > Remux Recordings in the main OBS Studio window.
