ShadowPlay - Show off your video's and give some tips :)

Tip is to use high preset and ssd's where possible.

If anyone's interested I'll try do a demux remux guide if anyone is having problems with the mp4 container.

This could solve shankleys gripe too as you could use something else to record the teamspeak feed then remux it into the base file, giving not only 2 audio streams, but selectable streams too.


Anyone know if its possible to force a different encoder? Iirc coreavc allows cuda compute to assist with encoding, might make lower the performance impact.

Agreed on the SSD's. I used a mechanical before and it wasn't bad but freezes every so often where it couldn't keep up I guess. No problems at all since using an SSD (having a 480GB helps :D).

Also, there is an option for chatting, which I feel should be used when I record some footage Wednesday night, so mind your P's&Q's chaps :p

So your tip is use DXtory?

No and yes
No if you play alone or not interested in keeping audio separate.
And yes if you do care, not everyone knows you can separate game audio from team speak, it's a reason a video I did has a guide on doing this has a ton load off views on youtube.

So it's a recording tip for anyone interested. ;)

Maybe you are not aware but ShadowPlay allows recording of TS for example;)
 
You can record ingame audio with Shadowplay this includes any voice comms, you have to add an extra option to record your own voice as well. Regularly record the BRTD lot on mumble with shadowplay especially when someone gets on mumble hammered ;)

Also if you have a secondary ssd/hdd I would set up the temp and save files there, found it helped when saving the shadow files.

You in a game of say bf4 with group of friends in teamspeak. You recording away and right at the moment you pull of one class kill and you want it on youtube, a mate is talking away about something else.

How do you handle that? You put your shadow play into Sony Vegas only to see all the audio is mixed together.
:p

I have no idea what you are saying and it is hard trying to decipher your posts at times (no offence).

ShadowPlay allows you to record game play, it allows you to record the previous 20 minutes as well, you can capture voice, you can capture in-game audio, it records up to 1600P, it is free, I like it.
 
He means you get one big audio stream with game+voice rolled into one, not 2 streams, one for voice one for game, so if you wanted to remove the voice chat before publishing you would remove that audio stream.

I haven't looked into how the audio is compiled, but I doubt Sony Vegas will show every audio layer (or it didn't used to).

Could someone record say 30s of game footage for me and host up the mp4 file for me to download? Don't have a mic my self. Recorded with both in game and voice happening.

If it is one big audio stream I will gusrentee I can sort a real easy fix to make it multiple stream.

Shadow play will record all audio into a single stream. Everything game, skype/teamspeak
So see above post.

With dxtory you can have it record audio from game and teamspeak into different audio steams. Making it easy to cut and keep what audio you want.

And no offence taking :) am very bad at times getting my point across.

Sony Vegas does with dxtory footage anything else you need to remove the audio first by right clicking on it and extract the audio, then you can insert it into Vegas.

See here
Tutorial Dxtory How To Separate In-Game Audio Fro…: http://youtu.be/7pqyHaVY6TY
 
If someone sorts me out a clip with both recorded I'll have a play with it tonight and see what I come away with, I know many moons ago when I first started fiddling with HD layered packages, unless you demuxed the container, programs like Vegas would only see the primary audio layer.

If it is one big stream, set something else to record team speak only then remux it to the host container - job done.

Fair enough and I understand what you mean now. I am sure nVidia are working on it and something to look forward to. This recording game footage is new to me but something I can/want get into and hopefully they will support 4K soon as well.

@ Paul, I googled and apparently you just run a free program called "free sound recorder" and you can edit the video accordingly.
 
Nvidia have recently added the mic input option and I believe they are working on more audio options like you say. I've used Dxtory allot before shadowplay (and fraps for that matter) was released but won't be going back. Shadowplay is just brilliant at not have to keep the camera rolling in the hope something good happens, just hit the save key when it does happen, so much simpler and with pretty much no overhead.

Here comes the question why is it only dxtory that supports it?
Everything else out there don't have it. Even capture hardware. People been asking for ages for fraps to add it and nothing.
It's like dxtory have some sort of patients with this feature.

Maybe start another thread? This isn't the place :)

@ Jeffy

I am loving the back record (up to the last 20 minutes). The times I have had a good game on BF4 for example are few and far between but the beauty of ShadowPlay is the ability to capture that time we have a good game "after the event". I think that is a superb addition.

I looked at your vids and they are superb. Do you use Sony Vegas or something else?
 
I will give it a go tonight after the game at 17:00. I don't generally record and tend to just live stream so not used ShadowPlay.

My aim is to be admired... LOL.

It is allright for you, as you are decent but poor old me, I have a good game once in a blue moon, so ShadowPlay recording the previous 20 minutes is a must for me :D

You can record from the off and will be fine :D

Glad you liked them, makes playing even more enjoyable. I have just been using wmm, I need to learn vegas or premier as wmm will only output upto 1080p.
