I'm surprised, despite recording it at 60fps but getting lower than that, the video is actually pretty smooth. I was expecting more hiccups, nice job mate!

+Penguin Recordings yeah ..you have to build ffmpeg with nvenc support and grab the SSR from the git ... setttings will show up like this then: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28788188/ss_29082015_01.10.58.png

Xpander69 That's amazing! I hope you don't mind me taking note of this for future recordings, because those gains are incredible :)

+Penguin Recordings i managed to get nvenc encoding working in SSR..so it uses a lot less processing power now... i lost i think just 2-3 frames with recording

this is weird, you are getting 15fps but i watched very smooth hahaha, I bet this game use better use of cpu than gpu.

Hmm that is odd, maybe is a problem with amd cpu, maybe someone with similar spec as you but with intel cpu and see if the game itself get better frames. Because ur video card is pretty good for the game itself. I check at gamingonlinux at see like 30 and 40 fps with the same video card and intel cpu, I believe that is your cpu, maybe you can report to feral, they already bought bunch amd cpu to optimize. I had problem with shadow of mordor on my phenom II (for being old :( )and they fixed very quickly. I run this game itself COH2 with my hardware phenom II 955 3.2ghz stock, 8 GB Ram Nvidia 750 FTW with default settings by the game at 1080p and run at 25~ 35 Fps on archlinux.

+MrElmatador82 it is actually quite smooth for that framerate..i dunno what magic is used there..but still not really enjoyable.. lowering image quality brings fps up to 30 area though..but it will look pretty ugly also... it might be CPU limited indeed..but i see places where GPU utilizations hits 97% as well
