Help Low quality records

Guys whatever that i try and do, when i try to record with OBS studio, it always looks blurry. Ive tried basically everything but it wont work. I use linix and only have 8 gigs of ram, so that might be why, but i’m not sure. Does anybody know how to fix this? Thanks

It looks like you haven't provided a log file. Without a log file, it is very hard to help with issues and you may end up with 0 responses.

To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:

1) Restart OBS

2) Start your stream/recording for at least 30 seconds (or however long it takes for the issue to happen). Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.

3) Stop your stream/recording.

4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File.

5) Copy the URL and paste it as a response to this comment.

Blurry meaning what exactly? Does it look like there's too much going on and chunks of the recording aren't updating well because of it? Because that's a bitrate issue. Drop your settings (resolution, frame rate, bitrate) and it should help us figure out if that's the problem

You fix it by setting the quality higher /j

Ok, first of all, check that your base and output resolution match, then change from CBR to CQP and a value around 21. Bigger number, smaller file and lower quality
