    Hey guys :p

    I installed replay mod on my laptop which has a maximum resolution of 1366x768.
    I was wondering if the clips i record with the mod with dimensions 1920x1080 are directly rendered as so or does ffmpeg records in 1366x768 and then zooms it to make a 1920x1080 scene ?
    It mays sound stupid but i can't figure out where does the uglyness of my records come from ...

    The resolution of your display does not affect how you render your replay, since it is rendering the environment itself rather than your display. As for your rendering issues, I suggest you screenshot your Video Settings so the Developers have a better idea of what settings did you render with (posting the Line Parameters may help as well, however it probably isn't too important).

    Thanks for the answer :)

    My Video Settings : http://prntscr.com/93c6ri
    This is the preset i use when it comes to render : http://prntscr.com/93c748
    And the line parameters : -y -f rawvideo -pix_fmt rgb24 -s %WIDTH%x%HEIGHT% -r %FPS% -i - -an -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -qp 1 -pix_fmt yuv420p "%FILENAME%.mp4"

    With your preset, why is there a weird green glow in the background? Is this one of the issues you are facing when rendering or is it just related to your screen capture software? I recommend you try to change the 120FPS to 60FPS. No need to use 120FPS unless if you plan to later slow down the footage more with an external video editor.

    When you get your rendered file, is it distorted or just blurry? Could you screenshot an image or two of the final video/outcome just to see what kind of "uglyness" it rendered as.

    I'm a minecraft editor so yeah...definitely need those 120 fps
    The green glow is normal i was just standing on a keyframe xD

    Here is an example of a rendered frame http://prntscr.com/93cuob It isnt bad-looking but i feel that it's not perfectly clear, it goes even worst when comes YouTube uploading : http://prntscr.com/935yvb

    What video format do you use when rendering out of the ReplayMod, and when rendering with your Video Editor (since we are discussing video editors, could you name which one you use?
    By the looks of it, your video file might not be best optimised on YouTube, so I want to know what file formats do you use for uploading footage with.

    As for this image, are you showing me a video pre-uploaded and post-uploaded?

    I use .mp4 diamond quality to render in ReplayMod
    After that I use SVP 13, rendering in .mp4 with the default internet 1080p.60fps preset

    And yeah the last image was the difference between the final rendering in svp and the upload on YouTube :p

    Last Question, does this kind of quality in videos happen to all the videos you export and upload?

    I have a few examples of the footage quality I took in while in the process of uploading, you can check it out here. For my exporting, I used Premiere Pro, and used the following Export Settings to get the best results:



    If you would like anymore help, I will be more than happy to meet up through skype or something to help you optimise your export settings to its best when uploaded to YouTube :)
