Make high quality recording with OBS on Linux
On OBS advanced recording settings, you should have listed Navi 21 VAAPI
device (for 6900XT)
Rescaling should be off.
Don't forget to cut (with alt)!! the not recorded/streamed parts of the
screen when cropping the capture size to 1080.
For decent local recording and not to big file sizes, a good setting is:
Rate Control: CQP with QP at 30 (dynamic, avoids cornering stutters.)
0 impact on gaming.
(Decreasing this number increments quality but also file size)
