Question / Help OBS Local Recording Looking... Odd..

Mattdogking · Oct 2, 2016

So, even with the default settings, settings I have done, and the local recording guide stuff, the recording seems to be.. White and blurry to some degree. Maybe pixelization. Not sure.

My PC

Does same thing on my laptop too. I'll put the log here, and upload the file.

You did not follow the recording guide correctly.
Switch to OBS Studio and use the simple recording presets for no-brainer solution.

I have before. It doesn't work. Has same weird look.

Youtube is re-encoding your video to 720p, judge the actual video file.

I do. The files look even worse actually.

And also, I realise the settings are off. I have used the exact settings that stupid guide has and it makes the video look worse. Ever since I upgraded my GPU from a GT 610 to a GTX 750 TI, these problems have happened. I have a feeling it is because of the GPU, but I wouldn't think so, as x264 doesn't rely on the GPU, it relies on the CPU.

The simple recording presets will provide you with near lossless quality. Don't use advance mode or anything.

As you can see, I am using the same recording settings as that (except for the mkv file because I dunno) and yeah..

Youtube is NOT a good place to upload test recordings for us to look at. Picture quality is not retained.

Have you not read what I said? THE FILE QUALITY LOOKS THE SAME WAY!

Adn the file upload will not work for some reason so..

Use a site like dropbox to upload your sample videos.
