Stuttering visual #5

Open SkippTekk opened 9 years ago

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

Hey man, im a tester for your Encoder, Freaking LOVE it. but the only thing that i really have an issue is trying to figure it out, i have knoweldge in this base area but for some reason i can't find any decent settings. i have a R9 390 8gb GPU from AMD (hence why im using this) and my video just stutters and goes into big squares. any idea on a default setting to try out?

jackun commented 9 years ago

Try out "Constrained QP" and set slider to 20. For stutter, for some reason it doesn't want to go much above 30 fps at 1080p so try lower fps for a test. Otherwise, I had weird 5-6 fps-only capture issue with Batman: Arkham Knight and Dxtory where enabling "Multi device processing" fixed it more or less. But also good to try if stutter is fixed when using another codec altogether.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

ok man, i have the settings set. does this work for it? https://i.gyazo.com/196a668ce167901e9430641ebce69d24.png

jackun commented 9 years ago

It should. Set preset to Balanced for better quality, should be fast enough still.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

ok new settings been changed.

https://i.gyazo.com/4143397ddccf4acd5231487bbc4ae9c4.png doing a testing video now.

Em i your test subject now :3

jackun commented 9 years ago

60 FPS is probably too much (for now anyway). Try 48 (if dxtory even allowed that) or even 30 :P

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

but i wanna have 60fps video's on youtube xD

jackun commented 9 years ago

720p is probably doable, but there's some weird "lag" with the AMF library that encoding overhead time gets too long for 1080p@60 :( Something is not inited correctly maybe, eh.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

yeah man that really sucks. i turned it down from 60 to 30. the footage looked WAY better. photo1 that photo was at 60fps

and now the video of the 30fps.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

oh and here is the config of your and dxtory. https://i.gyazo.com/ec0f3c84f9ed41ac8cba596efd37a827.png

jackun commented 9 years ago

There's still some weird corruption going on. I've seen it when I OCed my GPU a bit. If you have factory OCed card, try downclocking it to ~1000MHz core / 1200MHz mem.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

it's at 1100mz and im using the MSI Gaming App https://i.gyazo.com/20ce69815cba23c7dbf9f70b090d2dac.png it might be outdated though. ill see if it's needed to be updated

jackun commented 9 years ago

Yeah, downclock it a little. Memory clock should have bigger effect though probably and memory corruption probably manifests better as H264 bitstream corruption than pink textures.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

recorded new session, rendering now with Sony Vegas

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

ok so my third recording would be set for Gamine Mode, would be 1080 mhz

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

oh, do you want me to put "logging" checked and upload the files?

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

jackun commented 9 years ago

Pretty blocky. For now, all I can suggest is to try with even lower GPU clocks as just yesterday i did some FO4 caps on R9 290 and seemed fine to me. I'll check if there's some wierd corner cases later.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

alright man, but i still wanna know if you want me to look into the Log check, should i start logging for you?

jackun commented 9 years ago

Should have no need, for now atleast.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

alright man, i have the 1080 video recorded and rendered, just uploading the video now. by the way. em i keeping you up with this? cause i hope im not. it's currently turning 4 am my time right now :v

jackun commented 9 years ago

No 1PM here, go to sleep ;P

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

nah man, i work late shifts. so it's normal for me to be up this late :)

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

Test 3 video uploaded https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NK5D50mU8QM&feature=youtu.be

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

i just realised. would being in the GPU beta have a huge effect to this?

jackun commented 9 years ago

MSI gaming app? Dunno, it shouldn't unless it does some automatic background clocking. Or set clocks from AMD Catalyst control panel.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

well no, i was on the BETA 15.11 and i just installed 15.7.1 back onto my machine. that could help the thing cause it's more stable?

jackun commented 9 years ago

Oh right, well, never say never, but I'm on 15.11 too and seemed fine.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

alright....that worked? the video looks WAY smoother now with this recent recording. im rendering it now.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

Test 5? https://youtu.be/RWEFdWz8OH8

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

would it be better if i would to set the Profile to High, and the Quality at about 15 instead of 20? like this setting?

jackun commented 9 years ago

You recorded at 60 fps? Set the FPS override in codec config to 60 / 1 and check Enabled. Unless mplayer plays frame-by-frame wrong, the YT 60 fps video seems to be 30 instead.

CQP value is kind of a matter of taste and for what purpose you record. The usual quality/file size trade-off. If going by default settings AMF limits QP to 18..51. But high profile is probably preferable.

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

alright man! thanks for all the help, but it's time for me to take off and head to bed. Your help is very much appreaciated and here is the latest video i recorded and it went smooth to my understanding!

SkippTekk commented 9 years ago

alright, just did some more tests. and i noticed that the audio isn't in sync.
