If you are using a variable refresh rate monitor, then choose to record "screen-direct". This will allow variable refresh rate to work when recording fullscreen applications. Note that some applications such as mpv will not work in fullscreen mode. A fix is being developed for this.
# Performance
-When recording a 4k game, fps drops from 30 to 7 when using OBS Studio, however when using this screen recorder the fps remains at 30.\
+When recording Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild at 4k, fps drops from 30 to 7 when using OBS Studio + nvenc, however when using this screen recorder the fps remains at 30.\
+When recording GTA V at 4k on highest settings, fps drops from 60 to 23 when using obs-nvfbc + nvenc, however when using this screen recorder the fps only drops to 55.\
It is recommended to save the video to a SSD because of the large file size, which a slow HDD might not be fast enough to handle.
# Installation
If you are running an Arch Linux based distro, then you can find gpu screen recorder on aur under the name gpu-screen-recorder-git (`yay -S gpu-screen-recorder-git`).\

* Dynamically change bitrate/resolution to match desired fps. This would be helpful when streaming for example, where the encode output speed also depends on upload speed to the streaming service.
* Show cursor when recording. Currently the cursor is not visible when recording a window and it's disabled when recording screen-direct to allow direct nvfbc capture for fullscreen windows, which allows for better performance and variable refresh rate monitors to work.
* Implement opengl injection to capture texture. This fixes composition issues and (VRR) without having to use NvFBC direct capture.
