HQ/HD Recording Bitrate (Test Video Incuuded)

[teol]

Any chance of upgrading the .webx bitrate in MAMEHub? I love the feature because it records footage without losing much CPU but the 300k bitrate makes it look rough and the colours are not as vibrant as they should be in fact they look pixelated and kinda crappy and dulled down a lot from the colours I see on the screen whilst playing to be honest.

Sound seems fine on the other hand and the video seems to record at the right size and ratio for the game as said in game descriptions which is also a great thing.

Once the bitrate is corrected I think this is going to be the best recording method in any emulator using up less Quad Core CPU than any other emulator.

The bitrates I usually find in my high quality internet videos of stuff not shown in the UK normally range between 1000-4000 and nothing really over 4000k so far.

So in theory upping the bitrates of the recording to something half way between them would be a fair comprise of a new MAMEHub recording bitrate for a decent quality without adding too much more size to the video at the same time.



A completely optional improvement feature after doing the really necessary bitrate improvements which I don't think would be possible is the option of using stereo mix for voice overs in a mic whilst you play.

ok first of all. bucky ohare on hardest setting=batshit crazy
secondly i like this idea.

I use variable bit rate based on how much your CPU can handle, so that wasn't the problem.

But I had a bunch of ugly ugly bugs and they have been fixed =)

Thanks for bringing the video quality to my attention, and check out the new version for improvements.

Will do.

I don't think this video recorded on the older update yesterday was in VBR. I don't remember media info saying VBR yesterday only that it was the dire old school quality 300k CBR that you used to find on web videos until they started the 1000-4000 CBR bitrates off.
