Title: Recording in game
Post by: Officialjake on March 10, 2013, 09:20:14 PM
When recording in game is it better to use demo's then use a screen recording software on the demo or can I just use screen recording software and no demos?  Also what should I use?  I am on a laptop with a intel i3 core with quad CPU's at 2.30 gHZ and I have 6gb of ram.
I do have a 1 TB hardrive but would like to avoid large file sizes as well.

OBS Should be perfect for you

OBS has horrible audio desync. So no, it is not perfect.
Using demos to record only takes up a few kb per hour or so. And you have the advantage to record from multiple angles. So I would recomment using demos, and then find a good record program to record purely the part you need when looking back in the demo.

It has audio sync options, not anyone's fault if you haven't set it up right, it works fine for me

I use the free version of Bandicam, only limitation is that it has the watermark on the top and a 10 min at a time recording limit, so you have to combine clips in WMM or something if they're longer than that.

OBS is still better though.

well the error you got is something to do with direct X and seeing as OBS injects into direct X all I can think of is reinstaling everything to do with direct X

Same, I got a pirated version of fraps and it sucks, the quality is horrible, it has NO way to change the quality, it sucks, the pirated version was the legit fraps but for free, so its not like they made a different version. Bandicam is good to report minges in game etc. I use CamStudio recorder for recording my desktop and other things that aren't games, it's quality is amazing.
