The video discusses the optimization of video recording and streaming settings using AMD’s software suite.
- For video recording, a bitrate of around 25-30 Mbps is recommended for 4K and 1440p videos using the AV1 codec, while for 1080p and lower, a bitrate of 15-18 Mbps is suggested.
- If using the HEVC codec, the suggested bitrate is slightly higher at 20-25 Mbps for 1080p and lower, and 30-50 Mbps for 1440p and 4K.
When streaming, there are several quality profiles to choose from, including an adaptive one. The bitrate for streaming on Twitch should be around 6-7.5 Mbps. The software also has an “enhanced filtering” option, which uses AI to improve video quality at lower bitrates.
The AMD software also offers features like an instant replay buffer, with timings ranging from 15 seconds up to 20 minutes. The software allows for the buffer to be saved to memory or storage. A unique feature is the instant GIF function, which can create GIFs from your gameplay. It also offers an in-game replay feature, which can play back your instant replay over your screen for your livestream.
Hotkeys can be set up for various functions, including toggling recording and camera, and switching scenes. The reviewer hopes for API development to allow for more direct scene-switching capabilities.
