− | ## MSI Afterburner Guide ##
| |
− | Completely uninstall old versions of MSI Afterburner
| |
− | Restart computer
| |
− | Download and install MSI Afterburner (latest stable version: 2.3.0 at the time of this guide)
| |
− | Restart computer
| |
− | Start both MSI Afterburner and MSI Afterburner On-Screen Display Server.
| |
− | *(It is no longer necessary to start the server manually. MSI Afterburner automatically starts it when needed)
| |
− | | |
− | Open MSI Afterburner (the airplane without the pink numbers)
| |
− | Go to settings*
| |
− | On the “General” tab:
| |
− | Start with Windows
| |
− | Start minimized
| |
− | | |
− | On the “On-Screen Display” tab:
| |
− | Uncheck “Show On-Screen Display on captured screenshots and videos”
| |
− | | |
− | On the "Video capture" tab:
| |
− | Choose a video capture shortcut (e.g. F9)
| |
− | Choose a video format - I recommend MJPG
| |
− | Choose your quality - You can go to 90% without seeing much of a difference in quality
| |
− | Choose frame size - you always want 16:9 (e.g. 360p, 480p, 720p, etc) if you're uploading to YouTube
| |
− | Choose your FPS: 30 is recommended, though go higher if you want to do slow-motion edits
| |
− | Leave Framerate limit disabled
| |
− | Choose your videos folder - recording to a separate hard-drive is best for performance
| |
− | Enable gamma correction
| |
− | | |
− | For game/system audio (and not your own voice):
| |
− | Keep audio source #1 as "Auto select" and audio source #2 as "None"
| |
− | Downmix multichannel audio to stereo: stereo rip
| |
− | | |
− | For game/system audio with your own live commentary:
| |
− | Set audio source #1 as "WASAPI playback device": Auto select
| |
− | Set audio source #2 as "WASAPI capture device": Auto select
| |
− | Downmix multichannel audio to stereo: stereo rip
| |
− | Mix multiple audio tracks
| |
− | Steps 1 and 2 are equivalent to setting both sources to "auto select" without manually specifying WASAPI playback and capture device types
| |
− | | |
− | Minimize MSI Afterburner
| |
− | | |
− | Open MSI On-Screen Display Server (the airplane with the pink numbers)
| |
− | Start with Windows: On
| |
− | Show On-Screen Display: On
| |
− | Show own statistics: On
| |
− | *It is not 100% necessary to start the server with Windows. MSI afterburner will start it when necessary.
| |
− | | |
− | *If your settings window is too big for your screen:
| |
− | Ctrl + tab to change tabs.
| |
− | Temporarily reduce your desktop resolution
| |
− | Alt + SPACE, M. Then use arrow keys to move window
| |
− | Right click on the shortcut, choose properties. On the compatibility tab, check "Disable display scaling on High DPI settings"
| |
− | | |
− | If nothing seems to happen when you hit your record key:
| |
− | Make sure both MSI Afterburner programs are showing up in your taskbar
| |
− | Check the Active 3D Process in MSI Afterburner (the one without the pink airplane)
| |
− | Add the detected program to the MSI Afterburner OSD Server - Set detection level to none
| |
− | Restart both MSI Afterburner programs
| |
− | | |

| |
| | | |
− | If your recorded video files don't open in Sony Vegas or any other video editor:
| |
− | Try enabling "Enable MJPG decoder"
| |
− | If that doesn't work, download the KLite Codec Pack (both 32 and 64 bit if you have a 64 bit system)
