Single compression applies one compression level, while double compression uses two levels for enhanced quality.

Hello, this was a question I posted on the forum but wanted another perspective. I understand USB 2.0 cards include built-in encoders, while some USB 3.0 models skip that and rely on uncompressed data. I’m aware that Obs encodes the stream using formats like .264, Quicksync, or NVENC. I’m curious—would you get a higher quality stream from just the uncompressed capture, compressed once by Obs, versus one compressed both ways (by the capture card and Obs)?
