Screen Recording Software

[zane1214]

Ok first off I appologies if this post already existes.

 

I want to start recording some of my gameplay but I am not sure what soffware there is to do this. I have a R9 290oc.I know "Geforce Eperiance" has this feture but I know longer have a GTX card. What is the best software for this that is not only free but uses next to nothing in regards to performance?

I know the "Whats best" question is quite often subjective but what dose everyone use?

 

Oh and can we post links to please. And sorry for any spelling mistakes

Best Free one is OBS

Best paid one is Dxtory (IMO)

And in some cases FRAPS but not many use it anymore

Best one is OBS, just overall. AMD DVR exists, but last time I checked it was quite buggy.

AMD DVR is such a pain in the ass to use, i recommend never using it

I was just suggesting it as a secondary option

After installing OBS, you need to set it to record to file instead of streaming to twitch or what-have-you. IIRC it records to .mp4

And im just giving my biased opinion on it

I mean if you can get it to even run, congratz

Takes a few minuets to set the settings, but after that just a few clicks and your good to go

Little bit of a learning curve, but once you get past that, it's easy to use. I love using it and I spend like half an hour exploring the ins and outs of it.

From my experience, OBS is a pain in the ass to setup the first time but once you get it configured correctly it's easy to use every time you want to record.

Ok then that was easier than I thought. OBS it is then. I dont mind a challenge so should be good. Thanks again.

I have tried multiple screen recording programs and I settled on the VSDC Free Screen Recorder, it is by far the best free screen recorder I have ever used.

Well here is my first ever OBS video. And my god was that a pain in the a### and even then I was forced to play the game in "windowed" though I didnt actually play the game but still.

For thoughs of you that want a laugh at my expense (I dont mind on this occasion) then follow the link.
