Preview looks nice, but seems blurry when recording?

I have been trying to solve my recording issues with no success, with preview I mean right click -> Full screen projectro (preview)

Here is an example of what I am talking about: https://imgur.com/a/WUYFPGw

My video settings are:



Base: 2560x1440

Output: 1920x1080

Filter: Lanczos (sharpened scaling, 36 samples).



Also encoder settings:

Encoder: AMD HW H.264

Rate control: CBR

Bitrate: 60000 Kbps

Preset: Quality

Profile: High

I have attached my logs.

Since you downscale your recording (from 2560x1440 to 1920x1080), some blurriness is added. This happens with every kind of rescaling, not only with upscaling. For this special kind of pixel graphics, you may try the "Area" rescale instead of Lanczos. It's especially made for this kind of graphics.

If you composite your video from multiple sources, "Area" might distort the other sources. In this case, choose 1920x1080 as base resolution as well as output resolution and use the "Scale Filtering" Area on the game source directly (it's on the right-click menu of the source), so only the game source is rescaled with this algorithm.

However, best results would be to record the same resolution as the canvas, so no rescaling taking place at all.

Unfortunately neither setting the "Area" or choosing 1920x1080 as base resolution worked.
