(1) You can try to record in a CFR codec for now, at least then you won't have to convert any of your recordings for your video editor to work with (you have found out this works already, by trying the MJPEG codec) If you want, you can still record in VFR with NVENC – you would just have to then convert portions of the recordings that you want to edit with those video editors that don't like them - by saving them as a second file (a CFR (Constant Frame Rate) file, for editing).Īlternatively, you can try two other things: This is VFR, and some video editing applications don't like VFR (they don't import then very well). So, one second of playback might have 2 frames and another second later on might have 60 frames. When more begins to happen on the screen, the codec will insert/use more images per second, saving more frames to the file within one second of playback time. Just to clarify, VFR is Variable Frame Rate, where the codec will adjust the length of the GOP (Group Of Pictures) in the video - that is, the amount of frames that the file is saving as images, 'per second'.įor instance, when there is not much going on (changing) on the screen, it will only save a couple of frames into the file, per second. as you state), it is the video editing applications that have problems with VFR - not all of them, but many of the larger production suites (Vegas, Premiere, etc) do. If I may pop in (just to address your one question above), although NVENC/AMDAPP/etc are very good mechanisms for recording (accelerated, etc. I'll follow your instructions above and respond later. So this is a problem unique to NVENC for me so far. It works just fine, no problems with my editor.
I've done two tests with BandiCam capturing in MotionJPEG / AVI format. are you insinuating that CBR in that is not actually WORKING and it's still functioning as VFR? The NVENC Codec itself has an option to switch between VFR and CBR. Has anyone else ever had this issue? Any tips?
and was suggested by their technical support to move to MP4 file format.
I am doing testing to see if I can record into AVI and still have it usable in Magix Movie Edit Pro but last time I tested this I recall having problem. The issue is only with OpenGL, only when I record using Bandicam into MP4. The more I test, the more it appears that the last 5% to 10% basically just gets 'dropped' by Magix Movie Edit.Īfter extensive testing I never get this issue recording DirectX games, nor does it happen with "Screen Area Capture". It just suddenly 'cuts off' at a random point at the end. if I put this video into Magix Movie Edit Pro. If I throw this video into Serif MoviePlus X6. I get a file that has a listed time stamp of 30:00. If I record 30 minutes of gameplay in Minecraft (which renders using OpenGL) using the NVENC encoding option, recorded as MP4. At present I have "Serif MoviePlus 圆" and "Magix Movie Edit Pro 2015 Plus" installed on the machine I render my video on.
I would suggest downloading free 30 day trials for each of these programs (as Bluto said in Animal House "don't cost nuthin") and determine what works best for you.I'm using the latest build of BandiCam and I've started running across this problem that only crops up in one of my two installed video editors.
The other software runs fine as well, but the workflow offered by Adobe's product fits with my habits, I like the UI the best, and runs great on my machine. All are capable editors, but the one I always come back to is Premiere Elements simply because it runs better on my laptop, which is an i7 quad core 8g ram w/NVIDIA Quadro FX 880M display (just so you can compare to your rig's specs).
Within your price ceiling, in the recent past I have purchased and used recent versions of Cyberlink's PowerDirector, Sony's Movie Studio, and Adobe's Premiere Elements.
The paid version will do 1040i/p, but that is out of your stated price ceiling of $100.00. The free version is somewhat limited on the output you can achieve (I believe it is limited to 780i, not 1040i/p). One of the best free video editors on the market is Lightworks.
The paid products almost always have more to offer, plus support is available. Most of the free software will do basic editing and allow a few effects.
