thanks mate, the only thing different to mine are the keybinds. Will change them around a little and see if it then works.

edit: the turn on/off replay key, do I have to press that each time I start a game to turn it on, or is it on all the time if it states its on, on the home screen?

Maybe best reporting your issue on there forum? You must remember it is a beta still and this happens when a program is in its early days of testing.
Shadow play also had its own set of problems, out of us four me, humbug you and Matt I see the difference is the GPUs maybe this is a bug with 7000 series? You tried turning off Crossfire and see?
They no need to get so hurt over it, can fully understand if the program was released and out of beta, but it's not the case.

Like I said above you best bet is to report the issue and help get it fixed.

Great pics

Right, BF4 is working in DX, but i'm getting sound sync probs...

What speed hard drive you have? And is it also same drive the game is installed onto?

This sounds like a performance issue, if game and recording is on same drive it can put a lot stress on your system, system can't keep up and you end up with sync error's.

I have BF4 installed on a Samsung 830 SSD, my Boot Drive, recording is done on a WD 7200 RPM Mechanical Drive, BF4 is the only game i have sync problems with, even recording at just 10MB\s, i have a mini Locker Sniper Montage that i'm editing, i'm looking for sync programs if you know of any?

Your setup is done correctly for recording that's for sure. Only Sony Vegas 12 that I know of

This be the first to support Mantle thats for sure.

Better than Shadowplay?

QuickShot thinks so
Using AMD's VCE you can stream/record with almost no performance loss, at better low bitrate quality then Shadowplay. I have seen a few posts asking about VCE options. So I talk a bit about that here. I have found VCE to be a better quality option then shadowplay. It only needs a bit more support. Watch the video to see what I think or just head to the respective forums for the programs themselves Enjoy and good recording

Whats even better? is to use AMD's superb VCE you dont after just use the Gaming Evolved app you can use Dxtory, so not only do you get the stunning feature from what I would say THE best recording software out there, you also get the stunning 2% performance hit

[shankly1985]

Better because it means more to me, shows games I play. Grid Haaa really? Who cares about grid because I don't. Reason I said this better.

 

[shankly1985]

Well think I did make that clear. If you have any better site comparing the two and showing proper games feel free to post.

Am not sure why my Max was higher when was recording, something makes me think RadeonPro. RP crashed when I tried to record.

DVR Off - Min 40.7 - Max - 66.0 - AVG - 53.3

DVR On - Min - 40.0 - Max - 70.0 - AVG - 54.9

Tip!
If you have trouble recording to another hard drive, make sure the folder you writing to has full write control for your windows user account.

Would be nice for some you guys with fast fibre connection to maybe record and upload to sites like Onedrive or Googledrive Etc this way we will get past the Youtube compression and get to see the files in there one to one.

 

[shankly1985]

Nice, Shanks. should make a thread out of it where others can submit all sorts of games

Not bad idea, or maybe Mod can change the thread tile to something like AMD and Nvidia benchmarks for Shadowplay and DVR.

After figure out some rules to follow. and the uploading of recorded footage not good for Youtube. So for time being that will be me out of uploading my poor internet speeds. Fibre very soon though

LOL like tomb raider and thief are must have games, That link was there to show how much of a performance hit 3 recording programs have in some games, not to make one look better, it was a recent review and more in depth than anything else i could find.

If all amd users want is amd to look better in everything ever made, then of course i will stay out of all amd threads untill i buy an amd card.

Lol I posted them two because it's what I have available with benchmarks built in.

 

[shankly1985]

Here is some direct footage from Planetside 2, hopefully the link works.

This was with max settings in Raptr DVR and felt no performance hit in Planetside 2. This program is amazing to be honest, I have it on all the time. I was so jealous of Nvidia users over Shadow play now I don't have any reason to go green again

Thanks for that the quality is really, really good.

On this Bench the min is very random one, when the bench changes scene the min FPS really takes a hit.

 

[shankly1985]

So a 6% performance hit. That is pretty good in truth. I noticed you also only got a 9% performance hit with Thief. Neither of those are bad. Not sure what is going on with sound though, as both Matt and Humbugs recordings have dodgy sound (Humbugs is a stutter and Matts is out of sync). It isn't quite the 1%-2% performance hit that was being hammered home to me but still a manageable performance hit.

For the record, ShadowPlay gave me a 3.5% performance hit in Batman AO and GVR gave me a 12% performance hit, which again is manageable but getting in the realms of quite high.

9‰?? We're you getting that from? The avg fps one that means the most was only 4fps difference.

And has I said to you the other day, you can not compare raptr on nvidia vs shadowplay raptr on nvidia isn't using VCE

I'll run a batman AO later

 

[shankly1985]

So a 4fps difference on thief = 7%?

Mind post some your results? Any game with benchmarks built in? Highest settings etc highest recording settings etc.

 

[shankly1985]

And you wasn't comparing mine with yours.
You said on my system GVR give you 12% hit I wounder why? Lol

 

[shankly1985]

I posted my results in the "Shots fired" thread and in the Batman AO bench, With ShadowPlay recording and Shadowplay being off, it was a 3.5% performance hit.

So what about that 7% hit you speak off? 4fps to. Me is much less than 7% no idea how you get 7%
