I've been recording some content and uploading it to youtube, but everytime I do there seems to be a little bit of lag or it doesn't look as smooth as it should in 1080p / like it does for Wubwoofwolf etc when they're doing these.. I use dxtory for recording and VLC / Media Player Classic Home Cinema as a "source"..
(I'll be adding a camera soon if that'll help in some weird way)

I've heard good things about Open Broadcaster Software, I haven't tried it yet though. Setting it up right now to test it.

For some reason, when I tried it, it worked perfectly, just that the video got cut off xDD

When i did it, i got some problems with frame skip, but i think thats just an isolated issue. It tends to be pretty reliable.

Fraps if your hard drives can handle it and your computer is not a 4 year old toaster. OBS if you can't be arsed to encode the videos before uploading and don't care so much about visual quality (realtime h264 encoding yo).

OBS is also easier if you want to have some goddamn facecam or whatever in your videos.

^That
Basically, get Fraps and a free transcoder like Handbreak or w/e (doesn't really matter, they all do the job fine in my honest opinion). The process of recording and then preparing the video is extremely short and easy if you know what you're doing - and it's not all that hard to learn either.

I'll try out fraps first, and then OBS after.. Which I mainly use for streaming not for recording, didn't know it was a recording program aswell as streaming :?

Thanks everyone!

If you have a newer Nvidia GPU (GTX 650 or better), I'd suggest giving ShadowPlay a try. It's part of the GeForce Experience software (which is optionally included with the drivers), and it's great for recording high-quality* video without any framerate drops.

Thing is, my PC is too crappy to achieve even that without ShadowPlay... /me cries

I dont know, when i try to record my gameplay with fraps it'll lock my cursor in place. But only when recording osu.
No fucking idea why.

Dxtory with custom x264 codec.
Records in 1080p and no lag.

I used to use fraps, but i found that Dxtory is much better when you take the time to customize it.
