[FFmpeg-user] Which videoc codec gives best compression for screen recording?

[Kuban Altan]

Hi
I suppose that, x264 has a lossless mode when the quantizer scale is set to
0. If that is also applicable to libx264rgb, then it is worth to look at.
So your pixels will still stay rgb, and you will have x264 efficiency in
lossless mode.
