@@FictionChannelIN I record in 2k res with bitrate between 50-70mbs for racing games and 30-40mb for fps game, also in editing sharpen your footage a little bit
@@ShantanuSonawale Why the difference between racing and shooters, can you explain please? :) Cuz the racing video always has constant movement or why?
Nice and quick to the point! Although one thing that I'd like to critique is that you should've made a side-comparison WHILE running/shooting/walking around. That movement motion will definitely be visible as bit-rate goes higher (theoretically).
Finally someone who sees reason; I saw a lot of posts of people making a simple question: "What is the RECOMMENDED bitrate to use for RU-vid videos?" Cranking it up to the max isn't an answer. I don't have a full container of hard drives. Also, simply saying to put it at 130 isn't helping. What if the max was 150? 200? 550? Are they getting free SSDs somewhere?! You here just gave the answer I was looking for. Thanks.
what is this BS man Good short videos like these get small views while 10 min ones get more and i actually made the mistake of having high bitrate making my storage being full, thank you for making such a Helpful video
I have to agree with this....I find when I set it to 140 my 4k output videos show stuttering that's not visible in the gameplay ... that's on an RTX3090.... but when I set it to 50 (where I've had my settings the last few years) it's flawless with a smaller file size and exact same picture clarity even at 4k.
Appreciate the video, while I knew that I didn't need to max the bitrate already I didn't realise I could lower it down with so little difference.. Thanks for this 😉
Thanks a lot, I had my slider at the maximum bitrate (4k) for the longest time and I'm thinking that could be partially a reason for as to why they are taking so long to process.
I like that the video is short and tell you a lot of info just that bitrate really matters when you do something fast-paced, for example playing an FPS and moving a ton with your screen or when a lot of objects are moving on the screen you can then see the actual difference with the bitrate. That's why I find this video not very accurate as it could been made. Maybe you can make a video of comparing 130 bitrate and 50 bitrate but you will be moving your screen and showing moving objects(for example players) in the video? That would be pretty useful.
After a lot of trial and error i can def tell 1080p on 50, 1440p on 30 and 4k on 50 (1440p on 50 and 4k on 50 makes no difference in file size btw) On 1440p if you go higher than 30 you wont notice a difference only in file size. You also either need to record with a res of 1440p or upscale it to 1440p in rendering/post if you wanna upload the video with 1440p quality. Overall a nice in between is 1440p. Recording in 4k also makes no sense quality wise only if you upload the video in either 1440p or 4k which most people wont or cant do since not everyone has a 4k monitor (only doable for most in post edit where they upscale the video, so i recommend 1440p) Still a nice quick short tutorial which for your case should be updated since there was no movement shown in the comparisson, don't forget its easier to see while having movement in the video.
Thank you for the explanation of the 4k problem i've been having, I never knew I had to upscale the video ffs. I've always been doing 4k 60fps with like 50mb hahaha ill start using 1080p 20 now
I record in 1080p 60fps( native resolution ) at 30mbps . Then upscale and render to 4k at 30mbps ..the uploaded RU-vid videos seem good so far... Should I try recording at 50mbps ?does it make a huge change ?
@@danischannel The best ideal way would be to use OBS tbh, but since you upscale to 4k it would be smarter to use 50. You could try it out and check if there is a noticable difference. What you also could try is to record in 1440p to get RU-vid to use the different codec and then Upscale to 4k via rendering. You also need to render the video in 1440p or 4k and upload it with that resolution otherwise RU-vid won't use the better codec.
@@exan6970 thank you! Yes my aim is to get that better RU-vid codec lol ...I will try both methods you said ...1)the same native resolution recording at 50mbps .2) record at 2k or 4k . Don't know if my budget graphics card will allow this second method though let's see
I just recorded 80 minutes of 4K at 130 Mbps & the video is going to finish uploading to youtube in 20 hours. The file is 72 GB lol. I probably wont use 130 next time.
He is right mostly, you don't need 130mbps for 4k, I use 80mbps at 60fps and there are MINIMAL artifacts. The 50 he recommends is also fine, it will look wonderful.
Had to come back to this video a whole 2 years later to say- I tested it yet again. I uploaded a 4K exported video from Fortnite Lego mode through sony Vegas at a 50 Mbps bit rate and at its originally recorded bit rate of 135 Mbps, jumped to the same time stamps in each video and they look exactly the same.
@@TechTyrial I disagree with results being the same, it really depends on the game. Recording Escape from Tarkov the quality is absolute garbage without a very highly increased bitrate.
correct movement is different also i did confirm Higher bit rate is better for 4k movement since its processing more detail to store@@dallasuprichard7302
What settings do you recommend then? Also I use Handbrake for the encoding. My monitor resolution is 1920x1080p same as In-game resolution but I have my Shadowplay settings set to 4K - 130 Bitrate
@@williamr1088 4k u can stream in 30-55 br but u also have to notice how many FPS u stream 30? 60? more? if u stream more fps or videocapture with more fps, then u need high bitrate... if the screen is moveing fast then u will see arifacts if the bitrate is not high enough... u can try it easy by urself.. just record a race game with very low bitrate and high bitrate.. u will see the differents at the side where the track is fast moving
I currently play black ops Cold War and get a screenshot every time I die. I don’t want to completely turn off shadow play, but is there a way for it to actually record video? Not just screen shot? I have over 3000 screenshots of me dying

@@jazz96765 well because a 130 bitrate 4k video compressed looks better then a 1080p 50 bitrate compressed. Any time you take a larger picture and make it smaller you'll see more detail
I’m going to have to test this in a slightly more methodical version of this video. I’d love to have 2 or 3 4K videos running side by side at the same time for a good 5 minutes in fast paced games like maybe the crew 2 or the finals and have them all exported at different bit rates to see if you can see the difference. Main base video recording settings in shadowplay can be 130 Mbps, 60 FPS, 1440P cause that’s my native monitors settings but then I’ll export the footage in 4K so that we can take advantage of that higher 4K bit rate. Video 1 exported at 130 Mbps Video 2 exported at 80 Mbps Video 3 exported at 50 Mbps And then just combine them all and export at 130 Mbps so you can see the maximum to minimum difference of bit rates in action with the same exact footage going at the same time and you can be the real judges. Got the idea cause I see many people saying TEST IT IN A FAST PACED ENVIRONMENT!! Personally I believe a 50 Mbps bit rate is crispy ASF and I personally can’t tell the difference between the 4K 60 FPS footage I uploaded to RU-vid at 50 Mbps and 130 Mbps. It definitely looks professional if that’s what you’re worried about, that’s all I know.
1:18 I record my videos in 1080p (monitor resolution). But if I upload it like that (no matter the bitrate), the video looks trash ngl. *So I always upscale to 4k, that looks WAY better on YT.* Currently I record with 50Mbps@1080p 60fps. Would my 4k upscaled video look worse on YT if I recorded all footage with 15Mbps@1080p 60fps instead of my 50Mbps? Will try now but maybe someone has experience with this exact workflow 😅
TY for the video however your cheat sheet is completely covered by the next two suggested videos. I can only see the very bottom line of it for 4k. I was wondering if you could post it in the description or here in the comments if that's not possible. TY!
Are you asking about knowing SDR/ HDR in RU-vid ? In RU-vid if your video is hd then when you select the video quality settings at bottom right of the video it would show the words " 1080p HD " . Instead If it was not high definition then it just mentions 1080p over there
I mean... RU-vid has a guideline that's; 2160p 60fps = 53mb 1440p 60fps = 24mb 1080p 60fps = 12mb Probably because they compress your videos to roughly those bitrates anyway.
i dont think so:) am recording in 40 mbps 1080p and then you see more details not like everything is smudged, blurred, have 1tb separate mechanical hdd for it and its nice
Of course. I would keep footage of gameplay or whatever else on a HDD at this point since they’re super cheap and stick to having your games and apps on your SSDs
Geforce experience record 1080p 60fps(in game) video upload youtube after down quality,youtube option is 1080p but quality still low then source youtube video like 720p :) how fix this?
Meanwhile I have accumulated over 1TB worth of clips over the years because I was using the max bitrate just for a 1080p video. Thanks for the video, I'm glad Ill be saving so much space now.
For existing videos, I recomend compressing them with ffmpeg to cut out the unused bitrate (ffmpeg -i VOriginal.mp4 Compressed.mp4). I hope this helps with your space problem.
