Hello.

I am trying to record 2K+ footage with lawena, as then I can downscale it to have a better quality after YouTube's processing.

However if I choose the higher rez in lawena + avirecorder, the video still comes out 1920x1080.

Any ideas?

avirecorder is likely downscaling it. secret knowledge is to record in 1920x1080 and upscale it to 4k so that youtube allows higher bitrate.

this too, i don't know if you're on a 2k display or not but lawena cant upscale unless your monitor supports it afaik.

late edit (i don't even know if you're going to look at this thread again.): sourceres allows lawena to record at a higher resolution than your monitor supports. downscaling from 2k to 1080p won't really do you much good because youtube will still compress it to shit. that's why cyanic for example rendered a 1080p video upscaled to 4k so that youtube would allow him to use a much higher bitrate, and that's why that video looks fantastic in 1080p.
