Been trying to record some of our sessions in the XI BF4 NA server.

I downloaded "Open Broadcasting Software" (OBS) because it seemed to have a lot of good reviews, and its freeware.

I've been having a little trouble setting it up so it properly captures my game, audio, and have a good quality picture.

Anyone have any experience with this? Could anyone recommend better software?

Thanks

(Tips on video editing software would be a lot of help too, my earlier attempts we're just thrown together with Windows movie maker)

If you have the capability use Shadowplay by Nvidia.

 

See my video here

Otherwise you will need Mirallas Action to record, make sure you have a second hard drive to do so. 

 

This was recorded with said program:

 

 

 

For editing, I prefer Sony Vegas....you might differ however as that's preference. 

 

Let me know if you need any help.

Doesn't seem to want to put youtube on here for me. 

 

Which is annoying.

really? worked fine for me. I just posted the "share" link youtube provides with every video, it embedded itself. 

Thanks I'll look into those programs!

OBS works pretty good for open source but the default quality isnt very good. I think their website in the help section has a guide on how to tweak things manually for the best results. The best is when the video/audio is uncompressed, which will obviously need a great deal of HDD space. Since the codec used is h264 you will need that installed on your computer. ffdshow might do it. Otherwise you need the x264 codec on sourceforge. Use avidemux to change the video/audio to a readable format virtualdub can use so you can crop it and save the result. Since youtube automatically compresses the video before sending (I think its before) there is no need to compress it first. Or if I am correct compress it yourself to h264 in virtualdub and upload it.

 

Or you can spend a few bucks and get a program specifically designed for in-game recording which is much easier to use. The only reason I use OBS for cod demos is because of the xfire audio sync problem and when I need to capture the desktop. And I am a cheap bastard that has no problem trading time and effort to save a little bit of money.
