yeah

Really? Since when? Never knew that, can't seem to find it anywhere.

mountaincow · 22 Mar 2011 at 12:55

Ahh brilliant, finally audio capture too! Time to test this out.

Yes and it can be tweaked nicely so it is less of a resource hog than fraps whilst still achieving a decent level of quality.

buchtis · 22 Mar 2011 at 12:59

God i'm retarded... just found it now, didn't even realise you could go more right on the top tabs, what a noob lol.

How's the sound working with the new version? Looks like I could get rid of FRAPS for this if the quality is good enough.

Stanners · 22 Mar 2011 at 13:16

Anyone know if this resolves the issue of BC2, PB and afterburner. The lock ups whilst playing i am refering too.

mountaincow · 22 Mar 2011 at 16:05

Uh I never had any problems like that, anyway I played for about an hour and a half and it worked very well, sound can be recorded multichannel or stereo.

The video quality can be tweaked far more than fraps allows, it is pretty damn good I would say.

gropingmantis · 22 Mar 2011 at 16:18

I'm liking the video capture AND more importantly has stopped crashing BFBC2 with punkbuster. YAY

One small issue. Had to set memory clocks to 1399MHz because anything 1400 or over sets the overclock back to stock :confused:

paradisiac · 22 Mar 2011 at 18:48

sorry, i know i aksed this before but cant find the thread anymore. what do i need to change in the config file again?
EDIT : saw it on the download site, sorry.

gropingmantis · 22 Mar 2011 at 19:07

oops IT DOESN'T FIX THE CRASHING ISSUE

pob9 · 22 Mar 2011 at 23:03

never had any issues with bfbc2 afterburner and pb thankfully.

Quicken · 22 Mar 2011 at 23:18

I am so impressed with this program!, Just an awesome app that once set up you can just forget about under or overclocking the card, when starting aps or games. :-)

I'd say this is on par with FRAPS quality but with way more stuff you can customize, it's amazing and I think i'll be using this over FRAPS more.

Updated to this version too, never had problems with previous tho...
Video capturing improvement, will give it a go later.

This is awesome for recording BC2 for me. I'm not joking when I say I get zero lag recording half size @ 30fps onto an external H/D! Problem is - My whole computer freezes up and I have to do a hard reboot.

(after about 10 mins of recording)

I'm guessing this is what people are on about when they say they get lock ups with MSI conflicting with punkbuster? Does anyone have a solution? I bought Playclaw few months back but haven't got round to getting a seperate H/D to record on - this MSI afterburner is ace so I won't be using playclaw again (unless I can't fix the freezing problem)

On a side note - my GPU is a 6850 and it's not even overclocked - temps are at about 60 degrees in BC2.

I couldnt get the video capture on 2.1 official to work

I'll try classic interface and see if it works.

Nice, it works now, better than fraps
