  • nvidia-patch

    This patch removes restriction on maximum number of simultaneous NVENC video encoding sessions imposed by Nvidia to consumer-grade GPUs.

  • I am assuming you are using OBS studio from flathub. Apply the nvfbc patch to Nvidia flatpak driver using this link. Then install nvfbc OBS plugin from flatpak. Now add nvfbc as a source in OBS studio. It will give you the best recording with Nvidia GPU in Linux. It only works in xorg. Sample gameplay video
