How to make SUPER SMOOTH Gameplay Videos for YouTube Montages / Edits! (TURN 60FPS INTO 240FPS)

[@modernmanueee_]

tell people that to avoid the blurry crosshair they can use RSMB and mask the crosshair out with a blurry mask so that the blur fades away insthead of cutting off c-c

[@Rocklan]

Thanks for pointing this out!

[@modernmanueee_]

@@Rocklan thank you for pinning, I would make a video myself only for that but your channel is well known in the community so it is better if you spread the word about this thing that, at least for me, is one of the most annoying in montages I don't want credits just please tell people xD

Do u have any suggestion video on that bro?

[@xandygameryt]

Another good tipo for people with good or recent GPUs is to record on OBS at higher FPS like 120 and have the same results while having less work to do. I noticed if you render 9 min gameplay with the frame sampling and h264 the render time is just 2 minutes, frame blending 4 or 5 and optical flow over 9, which is still a good render time. (i'm using rtx 4060 which is a entry gpu). I don't think its worth uploading higher FPS videos to youtube unless using for those awesome fragmovie edits, sometimes I upload tutorials at 90fps and its smooth too but I don't think people will notice haha

ik im really late but when i finished my interpolation it made the file into a folder with a bunch of frames in it, so i have all the frames but it didn't make a video just a folder with images in it?. i just noticed i made it png by following what you said was better in the video, i do get it'll make it better but how do i make the image sequence into a video?

Why do each frame interpolated comes in separate folders?

[@jura142]

when in the flowframes software i've encountered a problem when i go to interpoliate my video it says: "Cancelled, frame extraction falied! your video might be incompatible."

Why does your base recording look so good? It looks fluid and proper 60 fps. No matter what I do, my footage looks choppy or juddery compared to yours.

[@keppycs]

sounds like your hardware can't keep up. have you tried lowering the recording settings?

[@FOGoticus]

@@keppycs A 13700KF @ 5.5Ghz + a 3080 12GB is more than capable to keep up even encoding AV1 off the CPU. Turns out my problem was kinda hidden all along. I got a 280hz monitor. 280hz is great for gaming but bad for anything video production today. Once I limited it to 240hz and my second monitor to 60hz, footage started looking just as smooth as everyone else's.

[@keppycs]

@@FOGoticus huh that's a strange limitation. does your second monitor really have to be at 60hz? I can record 240fps just fine with my second monitor at 144hz. i'd find it really sucky if i had to deal with 60hz again :p. and glad to hear you got it working ^^

[@theonlyocho]

@@duffylmao I'm not 100% but I think that if you enable "optical flow" in the retime settings that it will have the same effect. Then export normally

[@Reverae]

I wonder what happens if you you use RSMB after interpolating it? Would it be more smoother?

[@Rocklan]

I didnt even think of this. I would imagine it would either be excessively blurry or the rsmb would be the most noticable. Not sure about smoother necessarily just a bit messier

[@Abdullah______]

Recording high fps doesnt put that much strain on your pc and if it can record 60 fps without your fps dropping by a lot or fluctuating in game, you can most likely go for 120 or even 144 fps.

[@Rocklan]

You can remove the crosshair using something like content aware fill then run it through flowframes and add the crosshair back afterwards. I cover it in this video if you are interested kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHrSdqp5ptCaqMU

[@Funay31]

Hey, im a bit late for the upload date of this video, but actually you can put a higher value on rsmb for "motion sensivity" and it will give more of that "240hz" feeling, but the downside is that the hud will be blurry all the time so you need to either dont care or mask it out.

[@imapotatoyay]

hey rocklan, i have a little obscure question- when you’re exporting and it gives you the 3 options to export with frame sampling, blending, or optical flow, what is the scenario when you use optical flow as an export option? i know you can change clips in your timeline to have optical flow and often I will do that if I have a slower motion clip within a bunch of regular paced clips. but whats the move for exporting in that situation (having multiple regular time/pace clips but maybe one or a few clips that are set to optical flow)? is that a situation where you would want to set your export to optical flow or does it not matter? i usually have rsmb added onto my clips as well but i think this is a separate question from the motion blur tutorial almost

[@Rocklan]

Yes in a situaltion where you have duplicate frames on your timeline due to slowing the clips down you will want to use optical flow to essentially generate frames between to make motion look smoother, I believe if you set the clips to optical flow on the timeline and set the render to frame sampling the optical flow should override it on those clips but don't quote me on that. What I would do is not change anything on the timeline itself and then when I render set it to optical flow if I know im dropping frames as it wont affect anywhere that is running at full pace and only those areas where there would otherwise be duplicate frames. I would only really ever use frame blending if im trying to compress multiple frames into one (like in this video) and frame sampling for everything else. Hope that answers the question!

i need help, i put exacly the same settings as u but when i export it to frame blending the clip is very laggy help me pls

[@Salohcin_Semaj]

I have a program called SVP (smooth video project) and the paid version has a full GUI for what flowframes does and also lets you use it for realtime frame interpolation which I use religiously for movies/anime since I can't stand how choppy 24fps looks. Never even thought of using it like this - but I'll give it a try. I already record all my gameplay at 120fps. I'm going to try pushing it to 600 and frame blending from that

[@audaxu374]

how would you do the frame blending on davinci resolve?

[@CBF2006]

You have to use the Frame Average effect in Fusion, and set the frames to 1 or greater. Your computer may lag but I'd just look up videos on how to alleviate it. I switched my Render Cache under Playback to Smart and eventually the clip just played back fine lol. You don't need to touch anything in the output settings, just do what you'd normally do.

[@YoSint]

method one looks wayyy better imo

[@0N2cK0]

is there a way to do this in vegas or after effects (option 1) cuz idk how to do it in vegas and after effects

[@Rocklan]

Yes in vegas you can set the frames to blend in the render settings. It might be called something slightly different though but still very similar i cant remember. In after effects if you use media encoder to render you can set the render to use frame blending much the same as you would in premiere pro.

[@deluxyest5888]

the free option is the better one. RSMB just ruins the image when theres a big movement going on. its only good for animations but not for fps gaming videos like these.

[@Aktif.Yaşam]

What is the price of RSMB?

[@udayshirgaonkar4046]

I have a question.. I use capcut for my edits so their is NO FRAME BLENDING. will this still work? or thier will be no change? Plzz reply I am stuck🥲

[@DeimosTbatz]

How does this make any difference when your 60 fps clips are going up to 120/240, then back to 60fps in youtube? It seems like all it does is add blur and messup the crosshair if not done right.

[@tblais1041]

Lots of people just like how motion blur looks.

[@Rocklan]

Essentially yes, all it does is add motion blur however it’s one of the best ways of doing so as by using flowframes to interpolate frames in between the original ones creating a genuine 120/240fps clip and then blending 2 or 4 frames back together to make a 60fps clip again creates a very accurate and natural looking motion blur giving the illusion of a higher fps video. Typical methods of motion blur just uses the speed and direction of the clip to try and fake it.

[@DeimosTbatz]

​@@Rocklan ooh ok so it is for that, makes sense. cool!

[@DeimosTbatz]

​@@Rocklan Just wanted to say I appreciate your vids! You got me on the road to making better videos a year ago, huge early stepping stone from going to low quality vids to the very high quality (I like to think) stuff I make now. So thank you!

[@scyro2679]

Btw is it possible to do a whole video instead of just one clip at a time or can the software not handle it?

[@Rocklan]

Yes you can do a whole video at a time however sometimes if they were very effect heavy the AI can get confused and created bugged frames with heavy artifacting which can affect the motion blurs look.

BRO TYSM!!! This helped me more than you can imagine!!!!

[@Gobbonn]

is there any editing software that is free and will let me do this? ive only seen them go up to 60 fps

[@sashomedia]

RSMB is more natural looking motion blur than flowframes. I would rather record the gameplay in higher bit rate, but export in KZbin recommended bit rate. Otherwise the compression will take longer and may reduce the quality even more.

[@xaikgupt]

Yooo please help if you can. So everything works perfect! the video is smooth 240 and perfect.

[@Foil_aep]

and whats ur reason for upscaling frames if yt only catches 60

[@Rocklan]

Because you combine the interpolated frames back into a 60fps clip using frame blending which creates a kind of motion blur

[@Foil_aep]

@@Rocklan so it saves you the time of making motion blur aspects along with the base 60fps if you were to not use flowframes

[@Rocklan]

Yes then the clip already has it so you don’t need to use something like RSMB which is a paid plugin. The main benefit I find with it though is when time remapping you often slow the clip down by more than half resulting in a choppy clip at 60fps. Slowing down a 240fps clip by over half still leaves you with over 100fps so way over 60 of the final clip meaning no choppiness.
