So I needed to be able to record some WordPress tutorials. As someone who always goes the open source route, I opted for OBS. This was yesterday and is my first experience with the software. I started by running it on an AMD Ryzen 7 5700 with 40GB of GB DDR4. This is connected to a 1440p monitor and a 1080P monitor. Out of the box, the picture was pretty bad. Washed out with the appearance of too high contrast and low brightness with the color looking off. Kinda like 8-bit color. Since I'm using a browser I set that up as a source along with Display Capture as a second source for troubleshooting. I read every troubleshooting post and watched every OBS configuration software video out there. I dug in deep, and things only got worse. I reached a point where I uninstalled and re-installed the software. On a whim, I set it up on my old ThinkPad with a Ryzen Pro 3500U with half the clock speed and a whopping 5.89GB of available ram. Yes, under six-gigs. It uses Vega 8 Graphics. And that poor laptop is pushing a 4k display along with it's native 1080p screen. Everything looks a thousand times better on it with zero configuration. The beefier Ryzen is also a quad-core but with twice the clock speed with Vega 10 graphics. I would rather use it on the faster machine. Any ideas on what to look at based on the log file? Okay, I'm not 100% Open Source, this is all on Windows 11.
