Hey.
I would like to hear from you here on what kind of video recording program you (for those of you that are using those programs to video record games) prefer to use between Fraps, Bandicam or ShadowPlay (if you have the ability to use that)?
I know how Fraps is working and i know the footages it records are lossless. But my issue with Fraps is that it takes an insane amount of space on my harddrive and it's more heavy on the CPU which means the fps might drop a bit under recording. A 1 minute video recorded with Fraps @ 60 fps in 1080p takes a whopping 5.8 GB in an AVI file where the video have a massive 3000 Mbps in bitrate.
With Bandicam, a 1 minute video recording with 60 fps @ 1080p at 100 Mbps Constant Bitrate takes around 750 to 760 MB in size. This is with the 'MP4' filetype and the 'HEVC (NVIDIA NVENC)' codec which is basicly the H.265 codec. This will prevent the fps from dropping as it will use the more powerfull CUDA cores in the NVIDIA GPU to record the videos.
As H.265 / HEVC can use about 40-50% lower bitrate than H.264 and still have the same quality, this means that my Bandicam setup as i use is the same as i would use around 140-150 Mbps with the H.264 codec.
My question here is this. Will i see any quality difference in the final video from using 3000 Mbps on the recorded videos with Fraps and then encode that video at 10 Mbps to using around 100 Mbps with the H.265 / HEVC codec (which is the same as 140-150 Mbps with H.264 codec) on the recorded videos with Bamdicam and then encode that video at 10 Mbps?
And my last question is. Would you use 'ShadowPlay' by NVIDIA (if you can use it) over Bandicam with the setup i use on it?
If yes, then why?
I'm just trying to figure out the best way to record videos without using Fraps, so that's why i'm asking .
Here is a list of my current EVE / PVP videos:
1: Asteroid Madness
2: Clash of the Empires
3: Suddenly Spaceships fighting in Tama

Hey
I havn't used any of what you have mentioned and am pretty new to making videos. Having said that the research that i did do was that fraps is a massive resource hog on your pc with big file sizes. Have heard pretty good things about nvidia shadowplay. I personally use Action which I bought from steam to record gameplay. I find it to be excellent in terms of quality I record in 1080p 60fps and it doesnt affect my gameplay at all. I then use Sony Movie platinum also pushased from steam rendering out in full 1080p HD 60fps.
Here is an example of the quality
Vexor solo PvP Video
Hope this helps |

I just wanted to see if others do see Fraps as a massive resource hog on the pc to. So it might be a good idea to go for something else.
Now my computer isn't really slow either, but still. When you are in a big fight, it's always good to have as much performance as possible available.
And lastly, i still need to know this: Will i see any quality difference in the final video from using 3000 Mbps on the recorded videos with Fraps and then encode that video at 10 Mbps to using around 100 Mbps with the H.265 / HEVC codec (which is the same as 140-150 Mbps with H.264 codec) on the recorded videos with Bamdicam and then encode that video at 10 Mbps?
This question isn't directed to you 'Arkaydian Sabre', but to everyone that have the ability to answer on that question.
