How to fix windows capture sound/fullscreen issues

[CartonBoxGuy]

I am trying to record some game play from R6, but when I do i can't do full-screen, and I think it's okay, but when I watch the video i recorded after. I find the audio in game sometimes just breaks, but that doesn't happen in other games, is my potato laptop part of it. Or is there any other apps that you can recommend.

What are you using to record?

I have literally zero experience with the Xbox Game bar (or anything that it brings - quite frankly, I actively disable it every time I reinstall windows), so I can't speak to issue with it.

What are the specs of your laptop?

If you're able to use Shadowplay (Nvidia), give that a shot. Otherwise, try and use something like OBS.

When you say that OBS "broke", what exactly does this mean? The software stopped working, recordings weren't recorded properly, something else?

Your system isn't exactly ideal for recording and playing at the same time, so what you're able to do is going to be limited by a dual core system.

You might also be able to try something like DXTory, though I have no personal experience with it. It should be a lightweight process, but the files that it creates do tend to be quite large.

like I followed the insturction online but still the recording is still black, only if I set things to window the window shows up but if i change it to display, its just black.

I will try DXTory

Sadly DXTroy is not free, and Im broke. :(((

Unfortunately, I'm running short on recommendations for you. Screen capture, specifically of games, isn't my strong point. I record videos so infrequently, that I basically went from the days of unregistered Hypercam to Shadowplay having not known any of the technological advancements, or alternative options that evolved during that time frame.

You might actually be better off going directly to the OBS support forums, unless someone more versed than I in screen recordings is able to come along and help you here.
