What is a good for recording gameplay?

GothicGhost · 12 Feb 2017 at 08:58

I got a AMD card and was testing out playtv but it can only record for 10 minutes at a time?

Anything that is good for recording a hour or so?

Thanks for any help.

Check out some tutorials on YouTube.

If you have an NVidia card you can use the NVENC H.264 encoder

Oh yeah, I am sure there is plenty you can do with AMD too

Raptr was fine for AMD cards when I owned one, OBS studio is arguably fiddly but reasonably good and you can split audio channels etc with some tinkering. Not as straight forward as Raptr etc to setup.

Not really used it but MSI Afterburner does a decent job also

Relive (part of amd drivers) seemed to work ok for me the other day, But the file sizes are insane.

RadeonPro also has record options.
I've used this in past, but tend to rely on OBS nowadays.

DxTory is the best I've used. Very good quality and barely affects performance, and can record on multiple audio channels. Not the easiest to setup but worth it.

What options are there or are you limited to using something like AVI?

i prefer fraps over everything but file sizes are big especially at high res settings.

shadowplay is free decent on nvidia not as good quality wise as fraps.
obs is good and free follow guide by jack frags may help.

record to different drive than the one you playing the games on.

I used to use PlayTV & it definitely could record for more than 10mins. However, AMD replaced it with Relive which also seems to work fine for my needs (I'm not doing anything remotely professional or anything). Perhaps OP needs to update their drivers?

Relive works great, but yeah the recording flow sizes are huge, you might need another hard drive just for your recordings

Plays.tv is ok i record upto 1 hours gameplay at a time and is around 10gb in file size, the other handy bit about it, is that you can edited it and save the bits you want then delete the rest of the file.

Why not just use the Drivers? AMD Relive

Smoogels · 12 Feb 2017 at 20:32

AMD Relive is pretty good.

Peew971 · 12 Feb 2017 at 20:35

I used OBS a couple of times, pretty good and it's free.

Possibly update their drivers or download relive from the AMD site
