Game video recording failing
4.5
Recording software (OBS, ShadowPlay) fails to capture the game.
Symptoms
- Black screen in recording
- Recording stops automatically
- Low FPS in video
Possible Causes
- Encoder overload
- Game in Fullscreen
- Privacy settings
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Use Game Capture
In OBS, use "Game Capture" instead of "Display Capture".
2
Run OBS as Admin
Allows the recorder to "hook" into the game process.
3
Switch Encoder
Try using "NVENC" (NVIDIA) or "AMF" (AMD) instead of CPU (x264).
When to See a Technician
If the recording is choppy, ensure you aren't maxing out your GPU usage (leave ~10% for the encoder).
