Space Voyager Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Ok, I've spent quite some time lately trying to record some movies through X-Fire (tried other programs as well) and I'm at a loss. So much at a loss actually that I'm starting to wonder if it is possible that my GFX card is crapping out on me. Here, a short flickering clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sp-fFPjatYs This is messing ALL my attempts to record a SotS battle vid... Even recording a video update can take multiple tries. I tried many capture options, varied FPS, many quality settings (both in game and video capture), even reinstalled the game, nothing seems to work. Funny enough, the game runs completely normal, I don't think I noticed anything out of place. So my question is whether it is possible that there is some component of video card (or other HW, perhaps it has something to do with motherboard) that is somehow responsible for recording and has died?

Veki Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I think you have a problem with v-sync turned off. Check if it's turned off. If there is no option in game, try forcing it through video drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 I can't even find where to adjust it in the damn Catalyst control centre... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Voyager Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Ha, Veki, it seems as though you were right (I think)! I wasn't able to find v-synch option but I id force 60Hz refresh rate which should be more or less the same, and suddenly I was able to record the battle!!!

Veki Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I'm glad you fixed it. As for vsync : I don't have CCC (but I do have ATI 4850), but it should be in CCC - graphics - 3D - 'Wait for vertical refresh' and and set it on the 'quality - allways on'.

Matri Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Having been recently recovered from a crapped out video card, I can tell you this: You'll know it when you bluescreen every time you load up something that renders a 3D environment.

Sgt. Strike Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Vsync may be turned on, and affecting your graphics card. Turn it off, off you can. That maybe the first thing to do. The next thing is to also turn off anti-aliasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knan Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 Vsync off bugged the hell out of me in Rage. Vsync on for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
