This might also be an issue if the drive is partitioned with NTFS. +If you notice jitter in the video output then you could also switch to a lower quality setting. Ultra quality is usually overkill, very high (the default) is good enough most of the time. ## Note about optimal performance on NVIDIA NVIDIA driver has a "feature" (read: bug) where it will downclock memory transfer rate when a program uses cuda (or nvenc, which uses cuda), such as GPU Screen Recorder. To work around this bug, GPU Screen Recorder can overclock your GPU memory transfer rate to it's normal optimal level.\ To enable overclocking for optimal performance use the `-oc` option when running GPU Screen Recorder. You also need to have "Coolbits" NVIDIA X setting set to "12" to enable overclocking. You can automatically add this option if you run `sudo nvidia-xconfig --cool-bits=12` and then reboot your computer.\ -- cgit v1.2.3
