Question / Help Stream in 720 local record at 1080, is this posible?

[pacholol]

Now i have my stram runing 720p@60fps and im happy with that, but i want to record the games in my hdd at 1080p@60fps. Is that possible? Or i have to run 2*obs to do it? Like 1 for twitch other for local?

Not currently, however it will be possible in the rewrite (though it'll require two encoder instances, and one 1080 and one 720 at high FPS rates would be a hell of a load, you'd probably want a dual xeon system for something that intensive)

Or QuickSync!

Guess you could use OBS for streaming and something like Bandicam for recording :x expect 5 fps on heavy games or less xD

Nah, just have an Intel Sandy Bridge or later and use QuickSync at a high bitrate for the 1080p60fps local recording. No extra load added that way.

Dxtory configured for both DirectShow output to OBS and recording to disk would also work.

Edit: Or two DirectShow outputs to two copies of OBS, one streaming with x264 and the other writing with QuickSync.

One encoder instance running x264 and run one running quicksync would probably be best in the rewrite. Also I just realized you'll be able to use other encoders for file output so you might be able to use a less-CPU intensive encoder (in exchange for file size)

I do this already, but I have a dedicated streaming PC with a video capture card. Using the -multi switch, I have one streaming at a decent preset to Twitch, 720p, and another at SuperFast preset using a high bitrate, 1080p. The high bitrate makes up for the crappy preset. And my 2600k can handle it, granted it doesn't have to run a game at the same time. So yes, its very possible, even without using Quicksync (I would use Quicksync, but my motherboard is a P67 chipset that doesn't support it).
