Hi,

When I want to record an episode from the streaming site using Camtasia Recorder on my PC, the audio adds some noise.

Which is the best screen capture recorder to record episodes from streaming sites (e.g. Astro on the GO) with better audio quality and no audio noise?

Download it directly. There's a website which can download from a bunch of streaming sites, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed to link. I'll ask a mod.

Get cracked Bandicam. Or pay for it what ever. If you just really wanna go ALL out get OBS.

Just get OBS for screenrecording stuff, even if you don't want to stream. Literally every screen recorder is crap, except for OBS.
When using OBS recording, the video that I recorded is paused and also laggy. I have to set to Intel integrated graphics instead of Nvidia in my laptop cos I'm recording the episode on Google Chrome.

OBS works fine for me *shrug* FRAPS costs money and kills performance on my Core i5 machine lol. Shadowplay is much better IMO. I don't trust cracks for software, or even torrents, too many Trojans.

You should mux streams, not record them. By doing this you get the full, unadulterated quality of the source. This is how scene groups rip stuff from Netflix and Hulu.

You don't seem to know how to pirate properly, then. Proper scene releases never contain malware, and if on the off chance they do you can always check a pre database to see if the release was nuked for this specific reason. NFOs for releases also contain hash digests for the release that you can use to verify the download. If your AV detects a crack or keygen as malicious, though, it's a false positive nine times out of ten either due to the release being packed with UPX or just due to the AV being overzealous towards crack tools. If you suspect a release of being infected then scan it with Malwr.com (never use VirusTotal or NoVirusThanks as these are highly unreliable).

Doesn't work for DRM protected streams, and video lockers heavily compress source content anyway, so they're really not reliable mediums. I guess that's fine if you don't care about quality.

try another source stream? what exactly are the streams?
Anything from Netflix, Hulu, and major broadcast networks are the source. Video lockers aren't stream sources since the content technically isn't being streamed, and like I mentioned above these tend to use highly compressed forms of official scene releases as to meet upload limitations.

    Games are getting huge nowdays, like 125gb a game (4k games anyways). I feel sorry for players that only have a 512gb hd. (Series S)

    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player. (PlayerDirection)
