Windows 8.1 64 bit pro edition
16 gb of ram
GTX 980 TI
4790k @ 4.0 GHz
What I want to do is record gameplay footage as well as my webcam.
Here's what I've tried, and how it's failed:
Shadow play- I have it set to manual, press 7 to start recording. Pressing 7 does nothing, there's no indication that any recording has started, no file is created.
Camtasia and Windows movie maker- they record the webcam but games just show up as black screens
Open Broadcaster- This one seems great at first, but as soon as I press start recording or preview stream, it freezes everything up. I can't click stop recording, I can't click on anything on Open Broadcaster. I can't even click on anything on any other windows I had open, like Steam or Chrome. I have to control alt delete to get out of it.
XSplit- Same thing, can't click on anything as soon as a preview shows up with my desktop's footage.
Fraps- Well, I didn't really try this one, don't really want to pay $37 for it when I have all these other options, even though they aren't working.
Any advice?
