NEWS : Using Different Video Software

So now I'm ditching the software I was using and have switched to NCH Software's VideoPad Video Editor (paid) and the Debut Video Capture Software (trial). I'll purchase Debut once I have the funds.

Since I've switched, it seems like Debut does a better job at capturing gameplay closer to the true FPS than what I've used in the past. It's still a tiny bit of a slowdown, but not as bad. Not as choppy. I don't suppose there is a perfect solution, but this seems to work the best.

I could go open source but I've already taken a liking to using these. NCH has a lot of good things going for them, I don't mind paying money especially for useful software.

"Exploring the Unknown" (Pathfinder Edition)



NOTE : The song has not changed, only the video is new.

What's really going on in the video is just a brief test of the pathfinder DerVVulfman sent me, but the video doesn't really go on long enough to show the true capabilities of the system. I wanted to see how well the video software (Debut) actually captures gameplay, which was the bigger reason in recording this. The game still runs smoother without video capture software running in the background but I must say this did a much better job capturing it closer to the true FPS it runs at. Maybe slowed it down 2%-6% at any given time, little to no choppiness or stutter.

If you look at the other video for "Coastal Mist", that one was recorded in Flashback Express which did not do well capturing the live render at all. Choppy, laggy, overall bad. The live render, when not having the overhead of recording, is much smoother. Sample below.
