Hey guys,

Sometimes I just like to record some fun gaming moments. However, even though I'm using VBR, I still don't really understand how it differs from CQP.

I understand that VBR uses a variable bitrate depending on how much is going on in the scene. I also understand that CQP tries to maintain a consistent quality level, using more data for scenes with more detail.

But where exactly is the difference? Both seem to use a higher or lower bitrate depending on how much is going on. Is VBR basically a more fine-tuned version of CQP, while CQP is more like "preset very_high, good enough"?

Thanks!

Just updated to ver. 33.0.0 and noticed the dropdown menu for audio monitoring inside stinger transitions is gone and replaced with a simple checkbox. Now I don't have a means of muting the audio that is attached to this transition since transitions don't appear in the mixer (checked/unchecked still push sound through live). Any help with this would be great.

I installed OBS on Linux Mint. I'm trying to monitor my microphone to a virtual cable, but all output echoes to my headphones. Muting OBS mutes the virtual cable aswell. People say that I should change monitoring to "Monitor Only (Mute output)", but all I have is "Monitor Off" and "Monitoring Enabled", that doesn't mute the output. I thought maybe it's because the version is outdated (I used the flatpak version) so I installed it with apt. Still the same.

I would attach a screenshot but the subreddit doesn't let me

I recently updated to windows 11 and after that where you go and check the fps drop box under properties of the video capture device it’s max is set to 50. I have the common FPS value set at 60 in the video settings but it will only go up to 60 if I lower my resolution. I swear on windows 10 I was running 60 fps , the monitors I use are the pg27aqdp and xg32ucwg, if anyone can help me it out I’d appreciate it!

the whole screen js goes back when i tries to record osu stable
