<p>I exported my settings and got a file like this:</p>

<pre><code>[General]

[Output]

[AdvOut]
VBitrate=4000

FFRescaleRes=1680x1050
</code></pre>

<p>I know I had to add <code>[SimpleOutput]</code> myself, to ensure 4K bitrate for people using advanced or simple UI. I am wondering how I might be able to add a specific setting for Keyframe Interval. I want people to download my settings to have keyframe interval of 2, rather than auto (which is 8.3).</p>

Can I export keyframe settings in OBS?
