Help - AMD ShadowPlay Equivalent?

I don't know enough about AMD GPUs but I can tell you that there is a way to record with your card and only cause minimal/no additional stress on your CPU. You can make a new topic titled "Help with Shadowplay AMD equivalent". People will very likely be able to tell you exactly how to use it ... or use the google method. Anyways i am out on this one. CPU power is limited so I think this is your only choice and I don't know AMD tools so ... Good luck from my side ;-)

Basically, what is the AMD equivalent of shadowplay, where do I get it from and how do I use it (the last one is not necessary actually)?

[Jacktastic-Mofo]

There isn't a real equivalent because Shadowplay is so damn good, but I believe it's called Gaming Evolved and it should be nestled inside the suite of AMD Apps you get when you install AMD Drivers.

[machooper9]

In the Gaming Evolved app there is something called plays.tv that works kind of well

[Kryptyx]

Yeah don't expect the same type of performance as shadow play.

It literally uses plays.tv, it's horrible.

 

I hate AMD's software side. Constant popups (ads) after games, not organised, no shadowplay and even their website gives insufficient info about their GPUs

Yup, it's annoying as fuck. That's one of the main reasons I can't get an AMD GPU, NVIDIA's software suite is just really fucking good and Shadowplay is a godsent.

3rd party apps like obs and xsplit are what you have to use with an AMD card.

That´s debatable.

Shadowplay, Gamestream (which works to all Android Devices), Auto Game Optimization (not that I use it), G-Sync (although FreeSync is better in a few ways, price being the main one) and not having to worry about whether or not I'm getting fucked over by Game Works being implemented into a game are all pretty good reasons.

Use OBS and under Output in Settings, click the recording tab, and change the encoder to AMD Video Coding Engine H.264 Encoder.

The closest thing would be the Gaming Evolved app, but I personally don't like it.

Yea, because geforce experience works flawlessly (not).

If you compare amd's control panel to nvidia's control panel. Nvidia has a lot of work to do.

If i open geforce experience my complete system just freezes for a couple of seconds, and the same happens when i'm applying settings.

Same stuff with amd works fine and doesn't freeze my pc for no reason. 

 

It's very common btw, even luke said on wan-show once geforce experience is a terrible piece of software.

 

So yes shadowplay might be nice, but getting there with geforce experience can be awful.

One might argue obs or xsplit is better than Shadowplay, Gamestream that´s only to shield devices, Auto Game Optimization is terrible, Free Sync and GSync are pretty neck in neck at this point, saying gameworks actually fucks over amd cards helps prove my point.

Game stream works to ALL Android devices using an application called MoonLight which tells your PC that your Android device is actually a Shield, Auto Game Optimization has worked excellently on systems I'm not sure what they can handle, and Game Works doesn't necessarily fuck over AMD GPU's but I don't have to worry about any bugs it may cause. While it's not necessarily a good thing, it's kinda a good thing if you know what I mean.

If I am not wrong the AMD recording software can be used on both AMD and Nvidia cards but on Nvidia cards the performance suffers more...

It may work on ALL Android devices, but that requires a 3rd party hand in it. Personally not counting it because of that, but to each there own. You literally just said in your previous post you don´t use auto game optimization, so saying it works well on system you aren´t sure what they can handle is contradictory, you can disable gameworks and disable bugs.

I don't use it on my system because I know what settings my system can handle, but when I'm messing with new hardware for the first time, like when my brother got his 950 I wasn't %100 sure what it could do in games so I used auto optimization to figure it out.

Then you saying not that I use it is inaccurate.

I don't understand what you're saying?

Just because I don't use it on my system because I know its limits, doesn't mean its not useful. I use it on systems that I don't know their limits / sweet spots to figure out what their limits / sweet spots are.

This implies that infact, you do use it. This makes your first statement inaccurate.

Okay, you're being really nit picky- I later clarified that I do not use it on my system, which is what I implied through that first statement. I later go on to further clarify that I have USED (the past tense version of use, which implies that i do not currently use it, which makes my first statement technically true) it to figure out what systems can handle what if I don't know the limits of the hardware.

(I apologize for being nitpicky right now, was listening to Phoenix Wright music, saw this, thought, this is going to be awesome.) Your statement was,¨Not that I use it.¨ This implies in fact that you have never used it before, not that you don´t currently use it, as time is    not specified in your previous statement. Additionally, if you have used it before, what´s not to say you just aren´t remembering things clearly about your past experience with it? You obviously don´t use it often.

Not that I use it does imply that I don't use it currently. Also I do remember it very clearly as the few times I have used it (like 5-10 times) it has worked beautifully, trust me- I always remember things that work well because it can always come in handy.

What´s not to say it´s gotten worse since the last time you´ve used it? Also, your personal preference is different from others. You might find it, but another might find it atrocious. One person saying it´s good isn´t enough.

The last time I used it was when I built my cousins rig two weeks ago with an i3-6100 and GTX 950 and since I've never used that combo it came in pretty handy when trying games like GTA 5. Also not everyone will like it but that doesn't matter- for what it needs to do it does it rather well, even Linus has said that.

Stop trying to continue an argument that you don't need to argue because you don't have a valid point to argue.
