Both are easy but you need a beefy pc and for streaming a fast network. Upload, not download. Edited November 18, 2013 by DuckyofDeath123 Awards

Both are easy but you need a beefy pc and for streaming a fast network. Upload, not download. Record for later use. And as to not take up HDD space. I mean I have a good 4-5 TB's, but I dont need that riddled with videos where I am only going to care about 5% of it. The PC will handle the stress, and I have a 50 down 25 up connection, so that should be fine too. Just need to find a good site for it. My other thought would be to write a script, to save the games to a dropbox folder, that would send them to another local machine, then delete the file after 10-20 mins. http://obsproject.com/ this program will stream and record its free there are youtube videos on how to use it one that helped me was and it records in mp4 unlike xsplit you have to buy it or rent it to get to your videos Ill check that out right now. thanks!

Unless you do lossy compression first, this is never going to work even with 25 mbit upload. Compressing it lossy, then recompressing when you edit it is going to leave the quality so poor you mightn't bother at all, really. And of course, lossy compression is going to suck up CPU cycles which in BF4 will not leave your frame rate in good shape unless your CPU is high end. I can't record in 1080p on an i7 960, because it affects my frame rate noticeably. Also, editing the video isn't going to be a very convenient thing to do if you need to download the whole thing when you want to edit your movie. All in all I wouldn't consider doing this. You'd be better off grabbing an old 1TB disk, which is what I did. But I had one lying around from an old file server... But if you really want to try this, can you not simply map a drive to a dropbox account? Edited November 18, 2013 by DuckyofDeath123 Awards

Just what I've read though...not through personal experience. Awards

It's pretty good. I'm running a 770 and with Shadowplay on it doesn't seem to drop my frames too low at all, but it all depends on your preference. You could use just the manual recording mode so you don't have both options running at the same time. I've tried manually recording and it seemed to work great except for a few hiccups (but those may have just been because of my setup. The only bad thing about it right now is that it WILL NOT record voice input for the time being. So this means if you've got your headset and mic on it won't be picking you up talking. It does capture all outgoing sound though. So if you're talking with people on teamspeak it will capture your friends' voices, just not yours. I think I read a blip somewhere that they are going to add voice input recording at some point as well as streaming direct to twitch.tv. Overall I think it's a great tool, but it's in beta, so there ya have it.

The files it saves are way smaller then compared to fraps. For example.

The files it saves are way smaller then compared to fraps. For example.Actually, that file size depends on your selected video settings. Unlike Fraps you can set tons of things with DXtory which is why I use it. I record with dxtory using Lagarith lossless codec, so I only lose quality when I save the final edit. It is also less CPU intensive than using Fraps or even Fraps's codec in DXTory ( yep. You can.) You can also use an audio splitter with dxtory to have it record game audio, background music, teamspeak an your own voice seperately so you can filter out Killingman's allegations of homosexuality when you take his dogtags. Or blend them in, if you prefer :-) Dxtory is probably the most configurable recorder available, but it isnt free. I do like it though. EDD THE DUCK 1 Awards
