Hello, all! For the last couple of days I've been trying to record some game footage, more specifically from F.E.A.R., a first-person shooter from 2005, using the recording program Dxtory. I bought it largely because of its customisability, which would allow me to troubleshoot stuff and allow me to record stuff in a way that strikes a balance between quality and efficiency. Now, there has been a weird problem I've been having. I'm currently aiming to record at 1920x1080 at 60fps, and I have been recording to my SSD since my other hard drives are either too full or too slow. With Dxtory enabled but not recording, it manages 1080/60 no problem. It runs perfectly smoothly, no issues, no dips. With Dxtory recording, I get through the intro just fine, but the moment you take some semblance of control is when the frame rate drops to 30fps, and even lower as I progress further to 20, perhaps 15fps. And even more bizarre, after stopping recording, the gameplay would be equally slow. Now, I've used a small array of codecs, those being (in order of use): Lagarith Lossless Codec UtVideo YUV420 BT.709 VCM MagicYUV Lossless v1.2 and x264vfw H.264/MPEG-4 AVC I've tried changing the number of threads being used by Dxtory, changing the settings in each of the codecs according to the recommendations to those who have recommended by individuals doing this on newer games, and despite making no changes to the graphics settings (since my hardware far exceeds the standards of what the game was expected to run on at the time), it's becoming very confusing to me. Upon request I will provide the settings I have been using on an individual basis to see if that helps, but as it stands, I'm at a loss. And it seems to be specific to F.E.A.R., as I'm not experiencing the same issues with any other game. I've tested this in Half-Life 2 and it has no issue with it. And if you wish to find what my setup is, check the sig. -
Hello System Specs: Intel i7-3770k 3,40 Ghz, 4 cores, 8 logical processors (?) BIOS Version: 5/28/2012 Motherboard: ASUSTeK: Model: P8H77-M LE GPU: NVIDIA Geforce GTX 970 - 4GB Memory: 16GB - DDR3 - Dual Slot Depends how I run it, but let's take the usual: When game is being run in 1080p full screen, then the games crash while running Dxtory (Recording Software that I favor over any other), game does not crash like so when the recording software does not crash, and it does not crash during the modes of Windowed 720p or full screen 720p - this has been happening with BF4 and FIFA 18 thus far, I don't know any other game at the moment, none of the steam games do this, only game that the program doesn't record is The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ (Technically its Rebirth)

I got a dell SG s2716dg, and I can no longer record.. I can only record in dirt trash quality. I have a i7- 4790k, z87m GAMING Motherboard GTX1080 TI, 18gig vengance ram, 2 850 EVO ssds, one 500g, one 1tb. All recording software and recording is ONLY on the tb ssd. NOTHING ELSE. Its only reason for existence is to record. Action lags my games, all games. Obs doesnt record in high quality no matter the settings, Dxtory lags game and video. Before getting this monitor I did not have a single issue recording and did 1080i 60p Videos.( I have all my drivers updated, monitor, gpu, anything.)

hi everyone, So for the past week I have been getting a lot of mouse lagg when recording csgo with dxtory. I don't know why it happens, from the mouse and screen being smooth my mouse starts to lagg a ton. This is everytime I record on csgo. I got a good spec pc for recording csgo (i3 4170, gtx 960, 8gb, 2tb hdd) So i dont know what is causing my mouse to lagg so much whenever I record.

So I got a pretty cool PotG in Overwatch and recorded it with Dxtory (I'm pretty new to video format stuff and I don't really know what everything means) and I set it to save as an AVI file. I figured I could convert it to an MP4 so that I could sent it to a friend without trying to send him a 22 second, 5.6gb file. So I downloaded miro video converter and it wouldn't convert the AVI file. I'm wondering if there's anything weird. These are my settings: https://snag.gy/n7SdI3.jpg

So I'm trying to figure out how to record on my PC (specs below) using DXTory at 720P, I know on certain games I'm just not going to be able to because I have a shotty computer. I would however like to record league and other low impact games without my footage being choppy and me having at least 30 FPS. Fraps is just too intensive for me, so please don't tell me to use fraps. I'm looking for DXTory settings, and anything else that could help me get better footage.

So the other day I got dxtory and tried it out for a while. For the first day, it worked out fine and was recording the video and both my mic and in-game sound. About a day ago I experienced some problems with the video cause when I view it, I could only hear sounds but I could not see the acctual video itself. I tried to change my video codec from Matrox to Lagarith lossless codec and it fixed the video but screwed up with the audio. Now I am stuck with the video but no audio. When I try to put the recording to sony vegas pro, the audio track just has a flat line on it. Any tips on how to fix? *Sorry for bad english* -
Hello people of the forum! I have recently bought a new laptop, The Dell Inspiron i7559 Full HD i7 Model. I downloaded Dxtory to record games with. I have tried this out on Minecraft only so far but I am having an issue where I am recording the game, it is running decently but in the folder I am saving the files to there are two video files. The first one has the gameplay content. The second file however has the identical gameplay content with the frame rate values showing in the top left. I would really like some help with this issue because it is picking up a lot of Hard Drive space if it continues.

I opened up DXTORY to change the settings and my FPS went from 60 to 15, I turned on my monitors FPS counter to understand, I have no idea why it does that. I have 16GB of RAM and quite a beefy PC.

Hey, trying to follow this video by jackfrags to record some new gameplay but once I have everything set up correctly I get a message under the fps sign saying "INIT" No clue what this is, I followed the video to the step and it still shows this. Also please don't suggest shadow play, wasted me like 3 hours and I don't care about performance loss, I didn't buy a 980 6700K combo for no reason. UPDATE: FOUND OUT WHAT WAS CAUSING THIS! The matrox codec was not working changed it to lagarith and now it works perfectly fine but I still want to know how to use the matrox codec

Got a quick question. I have not used Dxtory + OBS for a while now to stream, but i want to get back into it for casual game streaming. I used to use VCE with dxtory and just then send it to OBS for my streaming (this was back on CCC). Now that i installed AMD Crimson driver, i no longer get the codec to show in dxtory as an option. I installed it like I did back then using the following: 1) installed AMD crimson 2) Install AMD Media SDK, 3) Install the openencodevfw codec as admin (screen says 3 files successful, i hit key, it exits the CMD installer) 4) Restart 5) run dxtory 6) check to see if it shows up as a select able codex (it does not). Anyone have it working with amd Crimson? Or is the VCE support not available on crimson drivers, and only the old CCC sets? Would be nice if AMD picked up the support for their H.264 coder on their GPU's.... My setup: Mb - Asus something... Ram - 16gb CPU - Fx 8320e GPU - R9 280 3gb EDIT: SOLVED Issue MYSELF AFTER A FEW HOURS OF RESEARCH. AMD dropped support for OVE starting with CCC 15.7 and later and instead uses AMF. The guy who wrote the OVE codec for dxtory has a test codec now using AMF. So I got it working.

Hey guys, just having a little trouble recording PC games. I've tried DxTory but the recording ALWAYS lags whenever I try it. I've not really gone with fraps because of the huge file sizes and I don't want to deal with that. I'm just wondering why I'm having such a hard time recording PC games. If anyone can give me some advice or tips on what I should do. Here are my specs: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/vCmWqs I also have an HDD that wasn't added in that list.

On DXTORY (A screen recorder for gamers) there is an option that says 'Processing Threads', you have to put the amount of cores your computer has (pretty self-explanatory), a review I saw said the 4790K has hyper-threading, so the 4 cores it actually has turns into 8 logical cores that helps with multi tasking, should I put 4 or 8 cores? A YouTuber has a hyper-threading 4 core CPU and they put 8 cores, I just wanted LTT Forum's tech tips and know how to come to the rescue

Hey Guys!! So I really need your help.. I need a program to record multiply outputs from my computer. Much like the same way Dxtory can, where you can select multiple things to record. As I have a Astro Mixamp, I have game audio streaming through the optical cable and a separate USB sound card for VOIP audio that I have used with a 3.5mm plug into my Mixamp. Which then mixes both audio singles into my headset. So in Dxtory I am able to select the optical game audio as one track, my USB sound card as VOIP chat on another track and finally my blue Yeti for my own audio. Allowing to adjust all three tracks separately. But my issue is that Dxtory takes up to much computing power and I rather record with Shadowplay.. But it can only record the mic audio and system audio.. Not allowing my to separate the VIOP audio.. So I was wondering if there is an application that allows me to record all three separate audio streams but not video? As I will be using Shadowplay.. Thanks so much in advance!

Like the title says, i am looking for a hard drive configuration, (no RAID) that is fast enough to record games (my MB has SATA III) and stores some of my data at the same time, with a minimum of another 2TB. My OS, games and programmes are on a Samsung 840 Evo 250GB SSD. Photos, music, recordings etc. are stored on a 1TB WD Blue and there isn't really something to complain about, except for the capacity. The games are recorded via dxtory, using the UtVideo Codec, which has a bitrate of about 74 MB/s (if i did the math correctly; filesize: 293GB , video length: 1 hour, 6 minutes and 27 seconds) and my WD Blue has a write speed of about 150-160 MB/s in the dxtory benchmark. According to that, a WD Blue should be fast enough for recording, right? So my question is: should i go with a 2/3TB Seagate Barracuda or 2x WD Blue 1TB? Now you might be asking: why 2x WD Blue 1TB? The answer is: I had no problems with my WD Blue for 14 months at all, with 2 more drives, the speed problem would be out of the way, because dxtory can use more than 1 drive for recording (if you didn't know already) and a 2TB WD Black is more expensive, than 2x WD Blue 1TB. I am also not sure about the reliability and noise with the Barracuda series, because i read that they would have some issues with rattling and fail often. Is that true? Are WD Drives more reliable and quieter than Seagate Drives? And which configuration would you choose? Sorry, if i misspelled something or did anything grammatically wrong. I am used to write and speak german

I've just started to record gameplay with dxtory for Youtube. The problem is when I record, no matter what game I play, it lags. I have used multiple codecs, all with the same results. I mean I should be able to atleast be able to record at 1080p 60fps on dxtory video codec on its lowest qaulity. But no. Here are my specs: i5-2500k 4ghz 8 GB RAM (2x4GB DD3@1333) GTX 970 2x Seagate Barracuda 1TB (1 for os,files etc the other for recording to) -
Hey all, My friends and I want to start recording when we play games together for fun. Currently I have my game/desktop audio going through my computer speakers and my teamspeak audio going through the headphone jack on my Blue Yeti. Obviously, I'm using the Blue Yeti to capture my voice. We want to be able to capture all the game audio and teamspeak comms in one file on a different track. I read and found DXtory was the best way to do this and watched some tutorials: [3] [3] Unfortunately, none of this has worked for me. I can record the gameplay and game audio no problem but it seems nothing I do will capture teamspeaks audio. What are the recommended settings you guys would suggest for recording in a similar situation? Thanks!

Hey Guys, I like to record some games I play and do the general youtube thing but I want to maximize the quality I can post. My System Specs are: i7 3770 8 GB DDR3 R9 270 2TB Western Digital Green I know this isn't a detailed description but I imagine it's all the important stuff. Fraps obviously doesn't like 60 and will hover around 56-60 which can result in choppy video. Dxtory is great but my drive which is singular obviously can't support 60 Fps and the game. OBS is great but seems to have off days producing choppy video some days then perfect video other days. Bandicam seems the only one able to keep up most of the time while maintaining decent quality. I don't know if there is better software or ways I can setup current software to work better with my system. I want to achieve 60 FPS at 1080p. I hear windows 10 has one built in does it record 60 FPS? Leave any suggestions you have below

Hey all, I started wanting to record some of my gameplay in BF4, but for some reason none of my screen recorders are able to capture footage. I've tried the free DxTory trial, XSplit free and AMD Raptr but none of these applications work with it. When I launch these programs and go in game, the HUD in the top left corner doesn't appear like it should. XSplit told me to disable Origin in game, but after doing that still nothing works. I thought the Raptr might at least because BF4's an AMD title but nope. I am running the mantle API in the game, could this be the reason why? Thanks in Advance.

So I usually use dxtroy because it is the program i am use to but every time I launch it with the game the game crashes. I tried using shadowplay but shadowplay does not show the recorder for GTA V. I know there is a ingame recorder thingy but I rather have a set recorder for all my games. Any alternatives or fixes for dxtory?

Hey all So I got Dxtory a while ago and everything recorded fine. I then upgraded several things, including my graphics card (from a 6670 to a R9 270), PSU and case etc. Everything now runs perfectly at 60fps on ultra (especially Battlefield 4, which I use to have to run on medium at 15fps). However, whenever I have Dxtory open, it causes a large amount of lag spike, even when I'm not actually recording. I have only ever noticed it with Battlefield 4, as it's the most demanding game I play (with the exception of Alien Isolation), and it keeps dropping my frames from 60fps to 1fps, and then back to 60fps again. It does this every 2-3 seconds, and makes the game near unplayable as it is quite fast paced and if I can't shoot/move/aim, I can't win in a firefight. If anyone has any tips or ideas on how to prevent me having to close Dxtory everytime I want to play Battlefield, it'd be much appreciated. According to Dxtory the write speed to my harddrive is 75mb/s (Which may be a problem, as it use to be 109mb/s) (I'll include screenshots of my settings for Dxtory and Battlefield 4, as well as my computer specs) Thanks all!

Hey Guys, I've been having alot of issues with some game recording software such as Fraps, Dxtory which I bought but what I'm here for is to find out what software is out there for recording games. Don't suggest shadowplay either I know its amazing but I'm running an AMD GPU Do leave your suggestions below share what you record with or think people should record with Thanks for your time have a great day -Biscuit

Hello all. I'm going to need to be able to capture 1080p 60fps video in a few weeks from now, and as such am upgrading my current build so that it all goes smoothly. Before I go any further: yes, it needs to be 60fps, and yes, it needs to be 1080p. I want this footage to look pristine. Here's what I have right now: i7 2600k @ 4GHz GTX 560Ti Direct CUII 8GB 1600 RAM 650W PSU Asus P8Z68V-Pro Mobo Two Seagate 7200rpm 1TB Internal HDDs Fractal Define R4 I'm going to be getting a 250GB Samsung 840 EVO to plop my OS and some games onto, and an MSI GTX 970 to replace my 560Ti. I'll be recording with Dxtory (lagarith codec). Obviously I'm going to need somewhere to store the files, as lossless 60fps 1080p video is going to eat through storage like crazy. I'll be doing recording sessions of an hour or two at a time probably. For my requirements, do I need to get another SSD specifically for video, or should I get some specific HDD? Maybe RAID is the answer (though I doubt it)? Or do you think I'd be fine using one of my current Seagate 7200rpm 1TB HDDs? I think that the Seagate I have now would cope with fine 30fps, but I'm not so sure about 60fps. Some insight would be greatly appreciated - I just want to make sure I won't have any problems with write speeds and whatnot when I finally sit down and start recording. Thanks.
