I run a youtube channel so I've been doing a minecraft survival series with a friend. We didn't play for a couple of weeks and during that time I re-installed my OS. Now when we finally wanted to play my fps drops to 8 FPS every time I'm recording. When I'm not recording I get it running smoothly at 60fps. It doesn't matter which HDD I try saving the file to. I've looked everywhere on the internet for a fix and nothing has worked. I've tried the following things:


    Lowering the settings
    Re-installing Windows
    Recording on different HDD
    Turning off cpu overclocking
    Re-installing Java
    Installing Java 64 bit
    Unparking my cpu's cores
    Re-installing Dxtory


Nothing seems to work. I can record at 60fps in other games like counter strike, skyrim, league of legends, battlefield 4 but then minecraft just drops. I'm stuck, I really don't know what else to try. I have a pretty good computer so it's definitely not my PC. I would really appreciate any help.

Here are my PC specs:


    AMD FX-8150 OC'ed @ 4.0GHz
    16gb of Corsair XMS3 1600MHz RAM
    R9 290x 4GB DDR5 RAM
    Corsair RM850 PSU
    ASUS M5A97 Motherboard
    1x Kingston 120gb SSD
    1x 250gb Seagate HDD
    1x 500gb Seagate HDD
    1x 1TB Western Digital HDD
    1x 3TB Western Digital HDD

Have you tried any other recorders? Sometimes the recorder loads up too much and just drops. I would suggest trying another.

Not sure if you got this fixed yet but the problem is the AMD Catalyst driver. I have the same graphics card and had the same problem. The problem is AMD Catalyst v14.4 isn't compatible with DxTory but v13.12 is.

Solution:
First thing to do is download this version of AMD Catalyst. http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop/previous/...
DO NOTHING WITH IT YET

Download TreeXY Driver Fusion from http://treexy.com/products/driver-fusion/download and install (This program will delete all AMD Drivers)
DON'T run the program yet.
Shutdown your computer and restart in safe mode. (Window 7 press F8 while booting up) (Windows 8 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2809468)
Once in safe mode run Driver Fusion, click Drive Family tab, click display, check AMD, then hit Delete in lower left corner.
Once this is done it will prompt you to restart your computer.

After it has restarted install the version of AMD Catalyst you downloaded early.
When that is done it will prompt you to restart again. After you restart DxTory will work fine. Just don't upgrade your drivers for now.
