Question / Help need to record 3 screens res 5800x1080 is it possible?

[qiplayer]

Hello everybody is there a patch or something to be able to record in this size?

I configured the whole program to find out there is a resolution limit that isn't written anywere!!!

If you know a program that uses NVENC and can record with NVENC please tell me.




I have to say a critic, you don't even have a page with the spec, you say this is the best software on the net, the informations that you actually miss to provide about OBS make people waste way too many hours.

I highly suggest to make at least a page with the specs (not on pdf, directly on the page)

You know the NVIDIA encoder chip has a resolution limit of 1920x1080, right? If you really insist on recording something like that, you're going to have to use x264 encoding. Even then, it might not work because it's a completely nonstandard resolution. Look up h264 Levels sometime to see the sorts of limits you can run into with x264.

h264 video is generally limited to 4096x4096 across the board, so you won't be able to use any h264 encoder to record raw 5800x1080.

Only way you could do is is window capture if you need that full resolution.

Of course, you could downscale to fit within the 4096x4096 limit, which would at least let you record. It wouldn't be the original resolution, but it's better than nothing.

WOW!! I didn't see all those replies! Thanks much to everybody.

I answer to everybody:

No I didn't know that there it was a nvidia ancoder chip limitation. I thought that the limit of 1920x1080 (now 2560x1600) was only for shadowplay.

The main point of NVENC or dunno it's name, the nvidia encoder is that it runs on the graphiccards and not on the cpu, I have 3 gtx titan that cud do the job.

No I didn't know this limit. For now I did a recording, with the width of 4096, the problem is that the image is not centered. And if I'm understanding correctly it didn't use the nvidia encoder.

Rewatching this recording no it must not have beeing using nvidia encoder because it's very unfluid.

Only way you could do is is window capture if you need that full resolution.

Really? would this work? And would it work with NVENC? Or using the nvidia encoder?



Thanks everybody for the answers, I think I was wrong from the beginning, I came to this program because on a youtube vid comment I readed, said that it uses the nvidia encoder. I'm actually recording with fraps with a huge impact on fps> drop from 110 to 47, or with my cellphone.
Those are my actual results:

and I'm looking for the best combination to have a full frame 5760x1080 fluid recording with in the same time a playable game.

* I'm playing this game Crysis2, because it's better than driving my motorbike at 120mph and legale&safe ;).
Cheers

Generally you can multiply the horizontal by the vertical by the framerate and if that number is less than the "luma samples per second" on the left-most column here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Levels , then h.264 should be able to handle it, at the level indicated. 5800x1080@60fps is well within the limit for the 5.2 level. However, while I can't find any reference to a 4096 limit in dimensions, I can't find anyone successfully exceeding 4096 either. So even if its not a limit in the specs, in practice it appears to be.

I have only attempted window capture for 5780x1080 a couple times before NVENC was even available. I know little about this other than what other people say.

It is very niche as relatively few will be able to see the video or stream in the way you present it, if you can even present it in the first place.
