Hello,

I just recorded a game with OBS, using HEVC encoder with mp4 container..
If I open the file with VLC or PotPlayer or avidemux I get all of my 3 audio tracks, while if I open the file in DR all I get is a video track with "embedded" audio, no separated audio tracks.

Today I bought the "HEVC Video Extension" App from Microsoft Store to have HEVC working with DR, but I have this issue now.

Can you help?
Thanks

Nevermind, I saved and closed the project and when I opened it again, all of my audio tracks were there.

Still weird..

You may have to expect some problems when working with OBS files if they are variable frame rate (check with MediaInfo).

I'm recording in CBR.

That's what OBS says. I've seen it lying to me at times.

I just checked and found out that for H.264, CBR is observed quite well. I have my stream set to 25Mbit/s and it goes up and down by a couple Mbits, depending on what I'm doing while playing games.

On the other hand, H.265 is totally VBR, going from as low as 900Kbit/s up to the value I've set (same 25Mbit/s as H.264).

I have to say though, that I haven't had any particular issue editing and delivering HEVC footage so far.
