Using variable framerate mode (-fm vfr) which is the default is also recommended as this reduces encoding load. Ultra quality is also overkill most of the time, very high (the default) or lower quality is usually enough.\ Note that for best performance you should close other screen recorders such as OBS Studio when using GPU Screen Recorder even if they are not recording, since they can affect performance even when idle. This is the case with OBS Studio. @@ -187,4 +187,4 @@ To fix this you can either record the video in .mkv format or constant frame rat KDE Plasma version 6.2 broke HDR and ICC profiles for screen recorders. This was changed in KDE plasma version 6.3 and recording HDR works now, as long as you set HDR brightness to 100% (which means setting "Maximum SDR Brightness" in KDE plasma display settings to 203) and set color accuracy to "Prefer color accuracy". If you want to convert HDR to SDR then record with desktop portal option (`-w portal`) instead. I don't know how well recording HDR works in wayland compositors other than KDE plasma. ## GPU Screen Recorder starts lagging after 30-40 minutes when launching GPU Screen Recorder from steam command launcher -This is a [steam issue](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11446).
