Currently recording demos with OBS. Two problems: rendered recording is blurry and fps drop aswell. I had the same problem with DDNet demo renderer but I just get the same result now. Help?

Show Video of ddnet renderer here

11:26

It's quite possible ur PC is simply too bad to replay the video smooth

bruh

11:26

my pc is quite good

Bruh

11:27

Then ur media player

VLC

Simply share a video that was rendered ingame

11:27

Where is the problem

11:27

Not obs

Hmmm, this screen is pretty small but it doesn’t look especially blurry to me

And also no lags

You're right

11:30

Hold on

11:31

There's still a blur

I mean there will always be a bit of quality loss

mp4 ye

Else the video is 100gbyte

That's why I wanted OBS

11:32

But it's broken

What's better with obs?

you can render in mkv

11:32

no video compression

U can control quality setting in ddnet too. MKV doesn't mean no compression

less *

Also not true

ha

11:33

fuck me

Blu rays simply use a different bit rate

11:33

Resulting in less blur but being much bigger

tell me about control quality settings in ddnet

cl_video_crf

11:34

cl_video_preset

11:34

https://ddnet.org/settingscommands/

Yeah you can have a constant insanely high bitrate and render at 4k, if space is no concern you can create no loss videos

Use the commands at own risk xd

tysm

Jupstar ✪

Use the commands at own risk xd

why?

It can use lots of disk space

ha

(btw MKV and mp4 are what are called “container” types, they can contain the exact same video + audio)

1

And be very slow

how much should i add on

Think of it like a fancy zip file

Floral Strobe

how much should i add on

Play around until u happy. In the url u see default values

11:36

U can always reset them

what's exactly the difference between preset and crf

Best is u google that in context of h.264

ok

11:38

i've rendered clips with the highest settings

12:24

and my editor show no image lol

12:24

Image attachment

12:24

sound is good tho

Maybe it can't handle it

mmh

12:26

plenty of people out there making teeworlds videos with hd recordings and i just can't

12:30

ha

12:30

solution found

12:31

cl_video_crf being 1 instead of minimum value makes it work

12:31

for some reason

0 means lossless

12:44

Nobody uses such compression for tw video. BCS YouTube reacales it anyway

1

I wonder why 0 didn’t work tho, maybe an issue with how we pass flags to ffmpeg? Lossless video should be possible technically and I’d be very surprised if consumer video editing software couldn’t open it

I'd first try to play it in VLC or browser

13:17

I trust them more than video editing software

You just have laser out on your dummy, then double press the basic dummy hammer bind, the dummy will shoot you

Could u tell me in dms?

lauerviolence

does anybody know how to beat this part in sunny land? we tried for half an hour now

If I remember correctly It's just a throw. Make sure the tee that is being thrown is holding the direction key, right before the hammer to get most of the power out of the throw

VLC plays it no problem

But DaVinci Resolve doesn't

14:50

Maybe it just has to do with this editor

Then probably a bug in DaVinci Resolve? I have used 0 crf in ddnet and edited and uploaded the files without problems to youtube. Counter to what @Jupstar ✪ says I think it still makes sense to use lossless, especially if you keep the originals around

how much space do envelopes take up

very little

14:58

what do you have in mind? ^^

Just keep the demo instead of the video^^

was just curious, still upset that envelopes cant stretch quads though

every envelope point adds exactly 24 bytes (in the future with bezier curves it might rise up to 88 bytes per point iirc)

oh i love bezier curves

15:51

btw, is it gonna be possible to have x/y/r at different times/curves, instead of all having to be at the same time

no, that is not planned

checked everything i knew of and didn't find a bug. but i'm happy with the video quality so nw

you should be able to emulate that with bezier curves though, no? also @Patiga

I would guess yes, although I'm not familiar with the math yet. doing that by hand is probably tiring, would need to be implemented in the client

is it possible to add 3 sec to the timer if a tee is teleported with cfrm

there's a time add field

16:40

but its use is discouraged

however it is better than waiting 3 sec frozen (edited)

heinrich5991

there's a time add field

how does it look like

16:42

cant find it

https://ddnet.org/explain/switch/

16:43

on the right side

thx

for some reason you cant set seconds, just minutes wtf

heinrich5991

https://ddnet.org/explain/switch/

does it mention anywhere that spawn tiles in switch layer work normally (at least in LAN)

I have a question. If I want to become a professional player, does this mean that I have to activate the antiping option?

18:17

Or is this a personal matter

Personal matter

I have a question. If I want to become a professional player, does this mean that I have to activate the antiping option?

Way better to get used to antiping imo but there are good players who don’t use it

Try play with antiping on and off, see what works for you

Does anyone have Shorefire’s old plague mod? (edited)

Antiping probably better

Antiping makes things consistent

server owner?
