    "Best Recording Settings" = Use all max values. I never imagined those settings. I'm amazed.

    My gameplay recording looks beautiful! The game itself was running smoothly but, for some reason, the OBS recording was lagging. I tried and tried and nothing worked. I thought I'd have to settle with it because of my PC. Now my gameplay recording matches the same fps as the actual game. Thank you!

    I have friends that stream to their channel using this, and it was recommended to me after I got my Alienware Area51m Gaming Laoptio. And after I installed this I just jumped right into it, and it would record my video. But going back to look at it in my files it wouldn't pop up. Glad I found this video and hopefully it will help me out with that issue.

    Any reason why I can't choose my monitor's display resolution for my canvas size? Under Video settings, my only options are 1080p or 720p, no 4K. I'm using a 4K 60hz monitor and have been recording in 4K on OBS no problem for years, but after switching to Streamlabs, it won't allow anything other than 1080 or 720. What gives? Any ideas?

  • @LilChar69
    @LilChar69 3 роки тому +2

    Already did. And the res at the properties on my record video was 1080x1920
    But when i uploaded my record games to facebook, it just detect max at 720p
    That files contain 5,2 GB on 4 minutes .

  • @machkage1254
    @machkage1254 3 роки тому

    I got everything else to work, but I can't seem to get my microphone to work while recording. It works when I test it in streamlabs, because the bar is moving when I speak, but I can't hear my voice at all when I go back and listen to the recording despite having my mic all the way up to max volume. For my mic I am using a Logitech g332 headsets mic, if that helps.

    On my macbook pro the max canvas and output resolution is 1920x1080p i can achieve the 4k 30 or 60 fps quality in recording video? I need to buy an external video capture card?

  • @Snake75055
    @Snake75055 Рік тому

    question my 3080 is always close to max usage and my 5900x is not even close to that most of the time would it be better for me to set it to software x264 if so would i lose any quality.

  • @MattyHills
    @MattyHills 2 роки тому

    Thanks for the vid, I have a 4k 60hz monitor, and recording in 1080p since the game isn't a 4k game, recording in 4k wont matter will it so I might aswell change the base and output setting to 1080p, I dont want to be wasting time and waiting for the 4k vid to upload on UA-cam but you can't see a difference in 1080p or 4k since the actual game is maxed out at 1080p 60, (game is Nathan Drake collection)??

    @johnnygarcia7652 2 роки тому

    So my streaming bitrate is around 5k, is the recording bitrate the same or higher? Someone else video said his recording bitrate is at 50k since he uses streamlabs to make reaction UA-cam vids, does that make sense?

    Hi I have a problem and hope someone can help like quickly. I set this up twice and achieved great results then came back a few days later, record again and the result is shite, skipping frames, audio out of sync, when a few days before it was perfect. Why is it different result? All the settings are the same. Cheers

  • @spectralcanvasimages
    @spectralcanvasimages 3 роки тому

    Anyone else having issues with Streamlabs giving them a rather blurred and washed out recording despite having all of the quality settings really cranked up?
    I found a bit of a ix for that issue but it requires me to use the I444 color format and that makes all of the recorded videos unplayable in anything besides VLC media player.
    If anyone has a solution to this I would greatly appreciate! I want to get back into doing more art videos but the recording looks like absolute trash so far in Streamlabs OBS and vanilla OBS.

      Your rig is good for either. It just depends on quality as CPU encoding is focused on quality where GPU encoding is focused on performance.
