Best Settings for video output?
Best Settings for video output?
So I just got my capture card from loopy and I am doing a test stream to see how it looks. It runs well, but it does look a bit pixely and blurry (playing new super mario bros 2 btw at 30 fps). I know loopy said to switch the codec, but I am not sure what effect it will produce. Any tips to getting the best image possible? Also I have an i7 cpu so should I change the codec to an intel one?
Re: Best Settings for video output?
Some tips capturing via the 3DS software would be;
- Experiment with your Codecs. Most people use the lossless logarith codec (downloadable) though it's typically for 60fps captures.
- Video settings > Quality = 100%
- Video settings > Configure... > Temporal quality = Max
- Ensure your 3DS software is being given High Priority on your Task Manager.
- If you have switchable graphics (a non-dedicated GPU), ensure your 3DS software is taking advantage of your more powerful graphics card.
Hope this helps.

Thank you much! Im trying the steps you have suggested! I am having some problems though with some of them. After I up the temporal quality up to full, I click on it again it shows that it is back at 75%.... so I dont know what is happening there. And the app is showing at the top of my task manager but I dont know if that means it is prioritized.

And about the codec you suggested....... https://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html this one?
Re: Best Settings for video output?
I downloaded that codec. But in the video setting it did not allow me to change the temporal quality. It just had checkboxes for: enabling null frames, using multi threads (which I checked), and a prevent unsampling when decoding box. There is also a list of modes including: RGBA, RGB, YUY2, and YV12. Is there a later/better version of the lagarith losless codec I can use? Or is this right and which video setting would be the best? I have an i7 6700 k and a gtx 1070 if specs help.

Right clack on the App in Task Manager then go to Details and set the priority to high.frogguy33 wrote:Thank you much! Im trying the steps you have suggested!

Don't worry too much about the temporal quality actually, my mistake.
I really don't know I'm afraid. I don't personally use that Codec as lossless quality isn't really what I go for. I'm happy with 30fps. All I can say is to experiment with the codecs or try searching in this forum.frogguy33 wrote:I downloaded that codec. But in the video setting it did not allow me to change the temporal quality.
