Help & Support / Re: Help with 1440p 60 FPS Recording

« Last post by DrunkMonk74 on June 30, 2018, 12:23:46 am »

I use MagicYUV and after some tweaking of power settings and my overclock in the BIOS Dxtory records just fine with no stutter.

One thing I have had to do on more recent titles is to set the Delay Hook to 20 seconds in Dxtory's advanced settings. This seems to resolve any conflicts with anti-cheat software, for example Easy AntiCheat on GRW or Battleye for R6

Thanks  again. .how is the quality  of the recording with those codecs?...I tried  OBS but felt no matter what settings were set it just felt subpar  compared to DxTory. Anyways  will play around with the codec mentioned above.

My go-to codec for all recording is MagicYUV. Though, if you're accustomed to using lossy codecs, you might struggle with disk IO and/or filesizes. 2560x1440 @ 60 fps starts to get *quite* a disk space hog. IIRC MagicYUV it started using around 70-100 MB/s at that resolution & framerate.

Other than that.. x264vfw? Though it might use quite a bit of cpu. I'm not really sure if there are all that many fast enough lossy vfw codecs out there

Otherwise, maybe OBS & nvenc? Shadowplay?

Version: 2.0.133

dxtory version from before time was invented. Could be that the game uses some display method not supported by the dxtory version you're using.

But also, the game might not output it's visuals with opengl or d3d. If the game doesn't use either, it can't be captured with any dxtory version.

In your errorlog:

Code: [Select]

PID:7096     TID:3540     TickCount: 2092312 VideoEncoderVCM::InitOnThread Error ICCompressBegin err=ICERR_BADFORMAT(-2)
PID:7096     TID:3540     TickCount: 2092312 VideoEncoderVCM::InitOnThread fcc=m701
means codec with fcc=m701 (ie: Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame HD FCC:m701) has *some* issue encoding given video.

one google search later:

Matrox VFW MPEG-2 I-frame HD codec now lets you render and play back Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame .avi files in all HD formats (720p, 1440x1080i/p, and full-size 1080i/p)

my take on this is that the codec can apparently only do 720p, 1440x1080 and 1080p resolutions, 2560x1440 is not supported. Use a different codec

It is with every game that I have  launched, no matter what game. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Help & Support / Dxtory Codec and TMPGEnc VMW5 problems

« Last post by Magogan on June 27, 2018, 10:50:43 pm »

Hi,

not sure who is responsible for it, but I have decoding issues with TMPGEnc Video Mastering Works 5 when I use the Dxtory Codec (4:2:0, compressed). It sometimes produces pictures with the lower part being garbage, see attachment. What can I do about it, apart from using a different codec or editing program?
