weird. still isn't working for me. Dark Souls loads in a window then reverts to fullscreen once it loads into the main menu. I have in-game settings set to Fullscreen 1080p. DSfix settings match what you posted. Yet I don't get the little icon for Shadowplay and it doesn't record anything.Yep.
Oh well.
I uploaded some Far Cry 3 footage to get an idea of what this will look like after YT and their compression techniques have their way with it. Still looks great and I took no noticeable performance hit of any kind.
I'm a little bummed that some are reporting they can record 20min worth. Not sure what I'm doing wrong but there is 85GB worth left on my 120GB SSD. Why I'm not allowed to go beyond 10min is beyond me. :(
Only two things I don't like.
#1. Limited to 10 minutes of recording at highest settings in Windows 7. Thats not long enough for me. Maybe if I could turn it down to 30 fps that would be ok but you can't.
#2. Didn't capture any microphone chatter from me. I'm fairly sure it was working at the time, but I could of be wrong.
Going to try and edit and upload the footage to see how it goes. Dxtory is nice, but it definitely takes a hit on my PC.
Just start the recording manually and you can record longer. The 10 minutes is just for the constant recording.Originally Posted by IcyRhythms

I have tried this in 2 games now and the audio is out of sync on both.. I'm disappointed, can't seem to find a way to fix it.
I wonder if the scaling works properly on 16:10 monitors or does it get distorted too?What are the chances of custom resolutions for this in future updates? Squashes my 2560x1080 image.
What player are you using to view the recorded files?I have tried this in 2 games now and the audio is out of sync on both.. I'm disappointed, can't seem to find a way to fix it.
fixed it by installing the drivers again, this time with the "clean install" box checked
after that I did a quick test using Unigine Valley :
off : 92.6 fps
on : 86.0 fps
i7 2600K @ 4.8 , GTX 670 SLI , Win 8.1 on an SSD , recording to another SSD RAID 0 array
~7% performance loss seems pretty nice considering the ease and quality :)
Yeah, this is something they need to fix. E.g. if you are playing with mumble, it will record other people but not yourself (since you are obviously not part of your own PC's audio output). They need an option for overlaying microphone input over what is already being captured.#2. Didn't capture any microphone chatter from me.

I think there will be. The version they showed had Twitch integration, webcam integration with a "thumbnail in a corner" feature and also separate microphone afaik - Looks like we got the pleb version so far.Yeah, this is something they need to fix.

Sethos you are are star, a shining starNvidia’s ShadowPlay service is planned for a worldwide beta launch tomorrow, however it seems that the application got leaked a day prior to that date. Spotted by NeoGAF’s member ‘Sethos’, this application lets you record your playthrough via Nvidia’s GPUs. The upside of this method is that the performance hit of it is significantly smaller than the one witnessed with FRAPS. The downside is that ShadowPlay records up to 20 minutes and does not provide a RAW file.

Looks like the 1080p version hasn't processed yet (at least on my side). Will record a quick video of Dark Souls to show how it works with DSFIx.
Do you have to record this to an SSD? Or is it fast enough to save it to a 7200RPM HDD (WD Black)?
At highest settings (and most movement) it record at 7 MB/s, so storing to a HDD should be no problem.Originally Posted by opticalmace
I don't have an Nvidia card (yet), but..

Shouldn't be the same HDD you run the game from though, probably.
Pretty good to record crazy stuff in games, hopefully they update and improve it for people who want better quality and longer footages.
I'm recording to a WD Black. Seems fine.
Excellent, thanks.At highest settings (and most movement) it record at 7 MB/s, so storing to a HDD should be no problem.

Between this and G-Sync I'm pretty much sold on an Nvidia card next.
I noticed recording it to my USB 3 media drive didn't let me record more than 4 minutes of gameplay because it couldn't keep up. The drive is fast but not fast enough. Haven't tested my on my internal drive but it seems fast enough to handle it. I didn't bother trying my SSD.Originally Posted by opticalmace

Going to upload a video now to see how Youtube treats it.
Is anyone having problems recording from an aftermarket sound card? I'm using a HT Omega Claro 2.
Currently it appears that if the game itself supports "hardware sound" it will not record. However even if you have a sound card, other games using software-based sound should work. Make sure NVIDIA's audio drivers are installed, even if you don't use them. If all else fails, try enabling "Stereo Mix" or "What U Hear" under recording devices.Originally Posted by Have a Nice Day
Still couldn't figure out how to fix my sound problem. tried to uninstall and reinstall the drivers without luck.

With a bitrate of 382 Mbps, it damned well better look like screenshots being played back!It is so beautiful. Like screenshots being played back at 24 fps.
I usually encode for smaller size then pass it around to people. The problem is the shit youtube quality when uploaded there.
By the way, I found a little exploit that allows you to get better quality out of youtube videos.
I posted some examples and a tutorial in the compendium.
Basically, resize your 1080p video to 4k using your video editing program - ideally with Nearest Neighbor resizing (though bicubic will do fine).
Youtube videos at "Original" quality are a MUCH higher bitrate than any of the others. I believe one of the videos I uploaded at 4k and the bitrate on the Youtube version was nearing 20Mbps
RE:R uploads at 1080p no problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi4gKrIxvDI
Youtube just takes a while to generate HD versions of videos.Recorded a few videos. Youtube messed up the compression in one. I played the games at 3840x2160, the video file is in 1080p, Youtube maxes out at 480p. Hmm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okuBsXl8dSI This game is not exactly a looker, but at 4K it ran great whilst recording.
RE:R uploads at 1080p no problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vi4gKrIxvDI
my 1920x1200 16:10 gameplay is getting squashed. I'd rather have it put bars on the sides to compensate or allow me to record at 16:10
This is not edited in any way, just directly uploaded after I recorded it.

When I view the videos in VLC or MPC or whatever the audio/video are fine.
Between Geforce Experience, G-Sync, 3D Vision, Shadowplay, Shield and Gamestream I'm locked to Nvidia ecosystem (and I think many people in the same boat). it's now not just a game of upgrading to the faster GPU available but a bigger investment and friendly experience for gamers.Originally Posted by opticalmace

Skip to 2:55 to listen to the actual game without me overtop of it.
The sound control software will go nuts if Windows detects another sound driver. I had to completely remove both on-board and Nvidia sound drivers so I can use the card without running into compatibility issues.Currently it appears that if the game itself supports "hardware sound" it will not record.

I'm not having problems with both Fraps and Afterburner, so I think we'll just have to wait for Nvidia to allow us to manually choose recording channels/sources. And hopefully soon, they've really done a great job with this one.
I'm hoping for the choice of sources as well. Currently however, if the NVIDIA audio drivers aren't installed it won't record audio. I learned this because I usually disable the drivers after a clean install, but in order to record any audio they need to be enabled.Originally Posted by Have a Nice Day

Yeah, ideally you should be able to select 0 to N sources, and also optionally add audio input devices.I'm hoping for the choice of sources as well.

Add drivel level Ambient occlusion and frame limit, NVInspector, easy downsampling, frametime metering in SLI, GPU PhysX and cuda (JC2 water is awesome). Very difficult forget those features.
