9070xt records gameplay by default in av1

RDNA3 cards also have AV1 encode. RDNA 2 only has decode.

With the bitrate set to 100MB/s it happily encodes 2160p or even 3240p, the maximum resolution available when using Virtual Super Resolution (which renders at >native res and downsamples, is awesome for titles without resolution scaling when you don't want to use TAA)

Isn't that expected? 4K Blurays only encode up to like 128Mbps, which is 16MB/s. 100MB/s seems like complete overkill.

I think op just didn’t type Mbps properly. 100MB/s or ~800Mbps is way higher than the GPU can even encode at a HW level even I would think

100,000kbps. It will more than double that for 3240p.

Right. That’s 223642 kilobits/s (kbps) in your picture or ~200MBit/s whereas you wrote (intentionally or otherwise) 200Mbyte/s a nearly 10 fold difference (100Mbit/s =~ 12Mbyte/s). 100MByte/s is 800Mbit/s or ~800000 kbps which is an order of magnitude more insanity than already choosing 100Mbit/s for live streaming (and not physically possible on consumer GPUs I believe).

It isn't for the amount of motion involved. Third person views in rally simulators and continuous fast flicks in shooters require it

Is the encoder any better than previous AMD offerings?
