Recording your screen?

[EmpireKicking 155]

What software do you use to record your screen to make gameplay videos etc.

So which one do you use?

I only ever used ShareX it's a free software. It's really good for recording your screen.

Haven't used any in a while, but I used a basic web app back in the day when I had to record doing things like picking numbers.

Used many over the years. It's like tail and error and looking for the right software. Now I just use OBS and streamlabs to record. And just for gaming without the need to stream then I use shadowplay

Get ShareX then. I just suggested it above. It's free and really good. Easy to use and has ALOT of other options.

The other program that I have been using years ago when doing youtube, was mirillis action that recorded my game play  then the classic free FRAPS Aoftware

Before, I used OBS studio. However, when my old laptop started to become slow and OBS stopped working properly on it, I used to use one that came with Windows 10 called XBOX game bar or something. It's built in for Windows 10 so doesn't need external downloads. I think for those with NVIDIA graphics card, there is a screen recorder which you can download. Now, I use lowkey.gg. It's something you need to download but it's the best one I've had so far. You can have it automatically start recording when you startup a game or do it manually and can even edit down long games to clips in the program itself. It has minimal impact on the performance of my computer too

I have not made any decent YouTube videos in many years now - I guess the last time was probably when I was playing Runescape on a regular basis as that is what I would film. I cannot remember what I used to film the gameplay then but it was definitely a dodgy free alternative to the otherwise popular 'unregistered hypercam 2' that everyone at the time would use. I wish I had followed what everyone else was using as maybe I would have had more views!

I use Bandicam. The only downside to using this service to record my screen is the small watermark at the top of the video. This feature can be removed if I was to pay for a upgrade, but this isn't in the budget at the moment.

I'm using shadowplay from Nvidia.

When I need to, I use OBS. What about you?

I have always and will always use OBS for any screen recording as well as live streaming as well. OBS was one of the first programs I used when I started creating video game content and live streaming and it's the program I am most familiar with as well so me staying with OBS has really been a no brainer. Very easy to use and works for what I need it for.
