Hi everyone ! I usually record my runs from Switch with OBS and an Avermedia capture card. I get a MKV file as an output, which produces about 1Go/hr of recording. However, when I go on youtube to download the video (after successfully uploading it) it tells me this is an MP4 file which is about 5-6 times lighter. I'm also almost certain that the time spent on the upload corresponds to the original weight of the video, so I would suppose youtube compress it. It tells me the video is on standard quality too. I found that the user can select the quality when uploading but I couldn't find where. Did I miss something ? This is especially the frame drop that affects the quality of the resulting video, rather than the pixels loss. Example here : https://www.speedrun.com/botw/run/y4ee1q3m Thanks !

Hi everyone ! I'm thinking about running my first hundo run whithin the next weeks (or months if I cannot find time for that). As I will certainly register it without streaming, how do you verify the sleep breaks rules ? Is it possible to upload 3-4 videos and let a second timer run during the breaks, or is it necessary to register the breaks (with all the failure risks when registering a 50h+ video in one go) ?

Hi everyone ! I've watched many speedruns for a while and I wanted to start speedrunning myself. My main interests are 100% categories without using much glitches (I know these categories are much harder to prepare because of the length of the run and sometimes the routing), but I really enjoy completing a game in an almost normal way. One of my goals would be running BotW. I'm currently preparing for it, but as it's so long to do so consistently, I would like to run shorter categories first (in Bug Limit, I really prefer). I'm not a streamer however, I just want to register some consistent (not perfect) runs and enjoy playing this way. PS : Sorry if my English is not excellent (I'm French) !
