Question / Help Recording VRChat in VR results in Encoding Error

Hey guys, over the past few days when trying to record VRChat in VR has been somewhat a challenge.

Normally i can record every other game just fine without any hassle but when i just comes to VRChat it just doesn't seem to get a encoding error out of the blue, sometimes i can record for a hour or more, and sometimes it's not even 30 minutes.

I've attached a log which indicates that the new NVenc encoder gets a invalid parameter, but thats just what i've observed

Any help is greatly appreciated

Specs:
OS: Windows 10 64 bit - 1903
CPU: Intel Core i7 4790k
RAM: 16 GB DDR3 1600MHz
Graphic Card: Nvidia RTX 2080
Motherboard: MSI Z97 GAMING 7, Socket-1150
Storage: 250GB SSD + 2TB HDD

EDIT: Forgot to include specs

Unfortunately, this is a bug known to the developers but no cause, fix or workaround known.
But just a yesterday someone on the forum mentioned that he re-seated the GPU card (took out and put in again to make sure all contacts match properly) and the error did not reappear. So it might be some kind of hardware issue and you might also try re-seating the card. It would be nice if you tell what happened.
