Title: OBS what kind of equipment i need to record at 1920x1080?
Post by: cat herders of linux on 22 May 2022, 17:49:08
As it is i have an i7 7700 with 32 gb ram.  I have never had a machine that optimized at better than 1280x720. 

Anyone uses this software knows the answer to this?

Can you provide what settings the automated setup landed on? File -> Settings. In the output tab, list the selected options for recording. Under the video tab, verify the base and output resolutions are the same.

Thanks for sticking with me on this.  I appreciate your help.  I'll check in again after Sabbath ends.

I would first recommend using 1280x720 for both, unless you have any specific need to use something else. That's one less operation to perform on the video feed.

Do you mind sharing what's in that output tab?

that defeats the purpose of the post to record at 1080p.  I'm not streaming also.

Hello,

Personally, I prefer simplescreenrecorder
Code: [Select]
pacman -Ss simplescreenrecorder
galaxy/simplescreenrecorder 0.4.4-1 [installé]
    A feature-rich screen recorder that supports X11 and OpenGL.
Sorry to answer a bit off topic.

OBS can use it as an input source

Ah, ok  8)

But why use OBS when SSR offers everything you need and is very easy to use?

I may be missing the point, as I often do, but why can't you just change the scaled resolution to 1920x1080 ?
Is it not there ?

I think you have restated my question in your own words.  The auto configure selects for me 1280x720 which is not the resolution i wish to use.  So my question was what equipment i need to do 1920x1280 since that was what EVERY computer i have used it on default to for autoconfigure.

Your question asks what equipment you need to record at 1920x1280.
My question is can you not simply change the setting to 1920x1280 ?
That seems to me to be a different question.

I'd still be interested in seeing the settings it chose on the output tab.
