So, thanks to all the replies, I’ll be redoing a bunch of my work tomorrow using OBS.

So, in short: if you want to record screencasts and you care about the quality of your work: DO NOT USE THE BUILT-IN GNOME SCREEN RECORDER. It outputs low quality videos and you cannot change the qualiy.

Use OBS instead.

*le sigh*

G’night!

FFS, GNOME! Just wasted a day of editing video because the built-in screen recorder records screencasts at such a low quality that I ended up with keyframe artefacts / ghosting in my captures.

Bloody hell…

And is there any way to set the quality? Is there ever!

[Edit] Use OBS. (Thanks everyone in the replies.)

(Don’t use GNOME’s built-in screen recorder if you’re posting HD+ videos.)

The quality of the screen capture in GNOME’s screen recorder

Just wasted a day of editing thanks to this. See the ghosting in the latter part of the video and the low quality in general.
