Question / Help Not as good quality

[xXDanXx]

My computer is very good and can run anything at 1440p. OBS is a very good recording software so I hear. I watched some settings online and its working great smooth and everything apart from one thing. My bitrate is on 60000 but the quality is still fuzzy. Any help?

Don't use CBR for recordings.

Those settings guides you watched are NOT recommended.
Please re-read that warning in the settings screen until it sinks in that saving directly to mp4 is NOT A GOOD IDEA.

Use CQP rate control, CQP value of 15 and save to FLV or MKV.

MKV pls. FLV is rather meh too.

 

[Harold]

FLV is fine if you don't need multitrack audio.

The log you linked previously didn't have that.
That one does.

You need to turn game mode OFF in windows' settings.

Do you mean game capture?

 

[Harold]

No. Game mode in window's settings.

Still bad quality and HUGE file sizes

 

[Harold]

And if you use a good media player like VLC to watch the recordings?
