So basically, if you capture 1080p 60 Hz, with CRF 5-8 you will probably average around 80-150 mbps bitrate, or around 2-4 GB per minute, so one hour of recording would probably be around 200-300 GB. Then you can add specific parameters in the x264 options there's no point to it here, it would help when you're recompressing this to a specific bitrate, to retain as much quality as possible. But, you don't care about disk space because you'll recompress the video with high quality settings when you're done. So the more you increase this, the more cpu would be used, and you'd get less disk space used on your computer. The higher we raise this preset, it just means the encoder spends more time figuring out what can be compressed more while still retaining that 95-98% jpg equivalent quality. In CRF mode, the encoder stops as soon as that level of quality is reached, so this cpu usage preset doesn't matter.

You tell the encoder that as soon as it finds some stuff that can be removed without dropping the quality level lower than 95-98% jpg equivalent, the encoder should stop and be happy about it and move on to next frame, so you get very low cpu usage but disk space is higher.

You don't want to set it as 0 as that's lossless and some video editors don't support lossless h264 (4:4:4 Predictive), but you can set it at around 5-8, any lower you wouldn't notice quality difference.īasically, that 5-8 range is like when you save a picture to JPG at quality 95-98%, practically almost lossless. The default for 8-12 GB 1080 videos would be around 18-22 * set it in CRF (constant rate factor ) - think of it like picture quality level, where 0 is lossless and something like 50 is worst. So in OBS, you can go and set it x264 as encoder and then go in configuration and you basically you tell the encoder you don't care about disk space, you don't want it to be 'smart' and use a lot of cpu time to find things in the frames that can be compressed so that you end up with a low bitrate, you just want to work like a near lossless compressor.

You want to configure the encoder into a mode where it sort of works like saving a series of PNG pictures.

If you have a lot of disk space, your best option would be to skip Relive and use OBS with x264 software encoder configured when capturing stuff - but the trick is in what configuration options you use with the encoder. If you want to reduce the video size to upload to Youtube then it's not a good idea, because Youtube will take your video and recompress it again, so basically your content will go through 3 recompressions, each time losing some quality. You already lose some quality by capturing stuff with Relive, which uses the hardware encoder.Ĭompressing the video again using the hardware encoder will simply result in further quality loss, it's like opening a JPG picture with your favorite picture viewer and saving the picture again as another JPG file. The hardware encoder on the video card is optimized for speed (real time encoding) within the constraints of the hardware chip.
