I am running at 1080p59.94. And my recordings look fine, but all my replays are not nearly as clear and I can see larger than normal pixels. Sometimes it almost looks like I am looking thru a screendoor at times.

i9-9900K
RTX2070
Win 10

I am not doing anything else on the machine and the drivers for the RTX is up to date.
I included a sample of my replay & my Recording in MP4 format. I have tried bitrates from 30 up to 200 on replay and they all produce the same look.

Any thoughts?

Hi,

You will need to select 200Mbps in a brand new replay session for 1080p59.94p to have reasonable quality.
Anything lower will cause varying degrees of low quality as you have shown.

Note that changing this bitrate will not apply to previous recordings or the current session
so make sure to create a new replay folder session with the new bitrate and things will be a lot better.

Regards,

Martin

First off... THANKS. That did eliminate the pixel look. Much appreciated.

2nd. WOW, that takes up a WHOLE ton of room. I have a 1 TB SSD HDD for replays and I can only get like 2 hours with it on my 4 cams. My normal broadcasts are around 6 hours. Gonna have to figure something out. Will version 24 take up as much space with the new Vmix codec? How bad is it if I use a standard HDD for replays?
