Hi,

 

So I've been searching far and wide for some fairly decent computer screen recording software that can record gaming audio as well as external microphone voice-overs. My budget isn't strictly limited to free, but I don't want some $400 complete editing and recording software 2 in 1 or whatever. I've been using NVidia's Shadowplay but it won't record ingame audio with an external mic active. It also needs to have no super small limit on recording time. I'd need something with at least a 20 minute max. If it isn't free thats ok but I can't go over ~$25-$30ish. Anything helps.

 

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot. Will try OBS. Problem is with the FLV format. How do I turn that into an MP4 or MP3?

 

EDIT: I just got a converter. Thanks for your help though!

You just need to change extension to .mp4 instead of .flv.
