    Michael, once again I have to thank you a lot for your detailed-yet-easy-to-understand tutorials.
    Among other things, I especially like the fact you try to emphasize my favorite flavor, FREE.

    Thank you, again!

      Hello,
      If people are saying that your video gets blurry from time to time it can also come from their connection quality. I suggest to make sure that the recording is of a good quality, and record while streaming. Have a great day.

    This video came at the perfect time!!!
    I hit a wall the other day; I've been following your videos and others and have slowly been building an OBS library with all my scenes with all the nice flares, bells and whistles, yet when I pressed record to practice a few videos, I quickly realized that my videos turn out choppy, laggy, full of stutter, and overall just an unwatchable experience.
    When I checked my CPU usage I could see that when OBS and my Webcam are on, the CPU shoots up to 98-100% usage...
    That'll happen even if I'm "reacting" to a youtube video.
    I guess my crappy Gateway laptop ain't cutting it, but I'll try your tips!

    so... I was scepticle about trying this but i followed anything you said for this and i compared a video i made earlier today of overwatch. and a test recording of second extinction and the difference is night and day.
    i noticed a few frames were lost (for encoding) during both recordings but overall hardly noticable even with all my other stuff running so i feel the need to thank you for this video and helping me (and many others) fix up their recording and possibly even my streaming settings all in this one video.

  • @diaryofawimpycam
    @diaryofawimpycam Год назад +110

    Super simple solution: Open your OBS settings, go to output, select output mode and click 'advanced', in the preset drop down, select 'Near lossless recording'. If you're laggy or something, it most likely has to do with your computer. This worked best for me and took a few seconds rather than watching an 11 minute long video.

    • @Gunter_Severloh_RDR2
      @Gunter_Severloh_RDR2 Год назад +4

      For the laymen whom dont have any idea what "Near lossless recording" is
      What is lossless in OBS?
      “Lossless” or “Uncompressed” video footage refers to saving as much quality from the source as possible, typically at the cost of storage space. This is usually done by recording with an encoder or codec that minimizes the compression it does before saving to a file.

    Well that's a relief!!!!!!!!!!! Upgraded the hard drive to an SSD recently and the old OBS settings just didn't perform - terrible 'in game' recording quality. In desperation have been surfing RUclips for a solution without success until I stumbled upon this video. Changed to NVIDEA NVENC H.264 and bitrate 60000 and BAM!!!!!!! Houston we have cleared the tower😂😂😂 A brilliant fix! Needless to say I'm very pleased and super appreciative of your efforts in sharing the knowledge in a concise and easily understood manner. A BIG "thank you" from me.

    Hi Michael. Great, detailed video. I've been experimenting because my movie recordings look a bit choppy. Like a slight studder. It only happens when recording. CPU use averages 28% and my only dropped frames were a few due to lag from my satellite inet. Seemed a bit better when I changed from 5000 to 3000 bitrate. Changing from veryfast to medium didn't seem to affect much. Any guess as to which setting would affect it the most?
