Video Playback after recording.

[Cakeyy]

Hello. when I record a game its fine no lag everything is good but when I stop recording and go and see the video its all choppy.I tried recording with all kinds of software but it still happens.

If your video is VERY large(and fragmented) your drive may have issues keeping up on playback. By the same right you may drop frames when recording if your drive can not keep up or has lots of fragmentation.

In general many users record to a dedicated drive to avoid many of these issues since the OS drive has other things going on.

Recording to SSDs may reduce this issue.

If you have an Nvidia card, Please try ShadowPlay because it uses compression to make much smaller files that can be played and written more easily to any storage medium.

EDIT
Looks like you have an AMD card. I guess shadowplay is off the table.

If the videos are recording ok(not dropping frames) and just not playing back, you may be able to edit them and compress them to get it to playback properly.

I looked at the video size as you stated and they are 20+ GB. But I changed the codec to Lagarith Lossless codec and they files are 1.70 GB they are still choppy but not as much. The recording software is on driver C and my video folder is on a other drive.

If this helps in anyway I am trying to record CS:GO.

It may be worth trying at a lower resolution. Maybe the second drive is slower than it needs to be OR the cpu load is too high when running that resolution.

I tried fraps and it doesn't lag and the video playback is good but I experience screen tearing while recording.

Fraps caps your game frame rates when recording, that may be what causes the screen tearing.

Fraps uses pretty light compression(unless things have changed). This makes it more easy on the cpu but still will generate pretty large files. I am guessing your other issues may have been cpu related(only so much power to go around).

If fraps is set to record at the same frame rate as your monitor it may work, but I have not used it in a long time.
