I remember the good old days when we recorded with fraps and bandicam, and your fps dropped by like 30-40%. I dont even realize how blessed we are that now with shadowplay and modern GPU's we barely notice a framerate drop

@Unknown_Genius Ай бұрын

Not only shadow play, we generally get by far less frame drops when recording compared to 15 years ago. But damn, fraps and bandicam do unlock memories - I still regret buying bandicam as it constantly somehow misarranged the audio file with the support no longer even replying after I send in a requested demo recording - shadowplay and obs both had been a huge game changer by not only providing proper free recording tools but also more stable ones in most aspects (and thanks to being free generally better support due to all the people using it which led to troubleshooting being a breeze).

Obviously this is not competing with OBS. It isn't for people who would record their stuff intentionally. It is for those that had no intention of doing so until now, but wish they did because the cool moment you would have wanted to capture happened in the past 5 seconds. Not in the future. So starting recording "now" would already be too late. This is actually one of the biggest things I miss from Windows since moving to Fedora full-time. The game bar thingy had this feature built in for a few years now, and it worked well. Not super amazingly, but well enough. I am really thankful I can do this even more easily on Linux now-including on the Deck.

I'd love to be able to see exactly what happened to me. I have no intention of sharing anything. I have no reason to just record videos all the time.

01:54 "and explain why it'll be slowly killing your PC" My prediction: It's not saving your clip to RAM, it's saving to the SSD which may kill it. A friend of mine has a 250gb Samsung 950 pro. Within 3 years, he has managed to reached the maximum rated Total Terabytes written of that SSD. How you might ask? Nvidia Shadowplay is doing this. It doesn't cache your recording in your RAM like OBS, it continously saves it to your Disk. This will kill small budget SSDs within a few years.

This is a non-issue. Gamers using small budget SSDs likely don't have tons of RAM, and they'd rather their 8 or 16GB be used towards running the game (and their OS). Anybody recording footage should be aware of write endurance (or have a decent SSD so they don't have to be). Even at 10GB/hr, it would take 6.8 years of nonstop recording to wear down a 1TB TLC drive with 600TBW endurance. A non-issue.

If you want to post CS2 clips or even get content creation going right away, this *built in* feature is HUGE. The fact that you can limit quality to lower video file sizes in that is also awesome, in case you wanted to show off that clip in Discord, which in most cases has a hard filesize limit for attachments such as videos unless you have Nitro.

lol, not sure if I’ve watched your content before but that thumbnail showcased such delightful insanity I felt compelled to click. Well played sir. More to the point, how does this compare quality/performance wise to Shadowplay?

That's a nice friend you have there!

If you're only interested in using this (or any capture software) for a 120 second long clip of something cool happens, consider using a RAMdisk for the temporary files. You should only need a gig of RAM or so, which would make no difference in performance for most modern systems.

that thumbnail is amazing!

Nice video, Philip. I won't use it for CS but it could be useful on ETS2 which has no replay feature - as a kind of accident dash cam. Mind you, it might not help much because it only shows the view you could see at the time rather than regenerating the scene through the game engine. Actually, maybe it's just easier if I stopped taking the AI traffic too seriously.

loving the DD2 hints :)

I think that this is much better than Shadowplay or OBS Replay. As far as I know, those store clips in RAM until they're deleted or saved, so you can realistically only have it save about 10 minutes at most. They're also missing other QOL features like a built-in clip trimmer. Overall this looks like a way better solution, assuming the encoder is good, so I hope it works for non-steam games too.

I never started recording my gameplay footage in CSGO/CS2 because the _capturing_ itself negatively impacted the frametimes (most significantly: consistency and latency). I've tried OBS in Win7 on my PC (although I know, Win8+ had a new screen capturing API for this) and OBS in KDE (X11) Linux on my laptop (juuust enough for 144 FPS in CS2). Both were screen captures rather than hooking the game. Due to the anticheat, not even OBS is permitted to hook the game anymore, on Linux it just didn't work. I hope that Valve's own solution would work well here... even though in a perfect world I'd like OBS to remain a first-class citizen too. The timeline gameplay integration is excellent. I myself, if I ever start to capture long footage, would like to have a "mark this as highlight" button. Here the game essentially does it for you.

usually i just record demos (in tf2/cs:s, not sure if the feature exists in cs2 nowadays). i haven't ever installed shadowplay or medal so to have something built into steam is kinda cool.

I love the thumbnail 😭😭

@Hlidskialf Ай бұрын

One of the best steam updates to date. Still missing some QOL and Record to RAM but impressive.

@christian908 Ай бұрын

As for who it's for, It's for sure for people like me, who use linux as their daily driver, and want something akin the Xbox DVR feature. I want to always have the option to clip something, and to have what I'm not clipping to just go away. This is an awesome feature!

I love saving my boss fights for some games so this sounds amazing

@Pichufan172 Ай бұрын

That's pretty sick. I've been using shadowplay for a long time but I honestly never bothered cleaning that shit up since trimming is a pain in the ass. This sounds like a great option

This brings back theater mode from halo 3 memories, I always knew that feature was amazing and wanted it in more games.

@UberDragon Ай бұрын

So, can I configure it to save the recordings on a RAM module instead like I can do with shadowplay?

First time you've mentioned Tori Black in years. And Destruction Darius 2 (it's been centuries, even)

@DJruslan4ic Ай бұрын

It's gonna be neat for rhythm games because it is like a replay: if you are going to grind for a sick play, you don't need to worry about recording EVERYTHING if you want to upload it, steam will do it for you

Now why does my clips for CS only show the one marker? It doesnt give me the different ones showing how many kills I got or when I died, they are all the same marker.

When I want to record a clip I download the demo, then load up OBS and record the demo replay because I'm not about to waste my hard drive space constantly recording gameplay. Good thing I'm not good enough to have many things to clip.
