Bitrate for OBS

Go to solution Solved by Electronics Wizardy,

Streaming or recording?

 

Streaming is max or service or network. 

 

Recording I'd go 50 mbit then re encode it later as a low bitrate higher quality. 

Not sure where to put this, but here it is. I need a good bitrate for 2560x1080@60fps, there is prob a way to figure this out, I just don't know about it.

For streaming some services have a cap (such as twitch.tv) so you wouldn't want to go above 3500. Also please don't stream at that resolution if that's your goal. Takes up too much CPU and you'd just be giving people a hard time to watch it.

Ah ok. For recording, a good rule to apply is to double the bitrate vs it's streaming counterpart. So for 1080P that would be 24000 instead of 12000. Things like that.
