I have tested screen recording with Open Broadcaster Software and HyperCam2. Both software have produced full screen videos (HyperCam 2 had better quality, but greater file size using defaults). It seemed to work fine, but once the Starcraft 2 game loads, it would flicker black frames very frequently in its output. I was playing the game on full resolution, and "ultra" settings. Given the specs on my computer, I feel like it should be able to handle the game and recording simultaneously. Any advice or tips on how to record or fix this. Should I try to record in windowed mode? This seems like a workaround, that I can easily test, but I am open to other suggestions as well.

(PC Specs: 2GB DDR5 RADEON R9 270X graphics card, 8 GB High performance DDR3 Ram, and i5 4570 @ 3.2 GHz. )

  • For OBS: What kind of capture did you use? Game Capture works the best and has the best performance of all the capture options.

Running OBS in Game Capture fixed it perfectly, as per GiantTree's comment. I ran it in Monitor mode because I didn't see that setting. Went through some more of the settings and I am VERY impressed with the output I am getting now.

This is because of how full screen applications/video works.

If you run the game in windowed mode, even windowed mode (full screen), this will not happen.
