Dailymotion/Shadowplay

Hi,

Any video makers here who have experience with Dailymotion and/or nVidia Shadowplay ?.....

I never thought i'd see the day i would be able to show my very first own FSX video but it seems the day has finally come and surprisingly easy as well... :cool:

Earlier i tried FRAPS with abominal results no matter what i did. But that was on my old rig which probabely wasn't up to creating videos with FRAPS. Yesterday i installed the new nVidia 340.52 drivers ( my new rig has a GTX 780 Ti ) along with the updated Geforce Experience and just for the heck of it i hit the Shadowplay button and before i knew it i had a couple of great looking videos from TS2014, SH5 and FSX. Holey Moley! That was easy! :encouragement: ( didn't have another go with FRAPS yet )

Now to get it on the net so i can show it to somebody... I never published anything on Youtube sofar, started reading about it and found quite a few comments of people that prefer Dailymotion over YT to publish videos. Easier and better quailty. I can't compare it with YT myself but it certainly proved very easy ( just sign up and hit the upload button) and the quality proved to be very good as well. Atleast in the end because, at first, it would only show in 380 resolution..... However, after playing some other videos at Dailymotion i suddenly had the option to play my video in 720 res and after that even 1080 HD turned up !.... Now idea why but very happy about it!

No idea either why, after embedding the video here in my post, it is indeed embedded here in the composing window but turns up as a link only in the Preview Post ?...... I suppose i'll see what happens after submitting my post...

What i'm still very curious about of course is what exactly will other people see when they play my video.... Would anybody here be so kind to click the link ( or play the video if it may turn up after submitting the post ) and let me know about the quality ? Resolution options are supposed to appear when you click the top right corner of the screen. I get 1080HD now which looks pretty good at full screen, i just wonder if you'll get the 1080 option as well ?....

Bummer that it seems like FSX engine sounds are not recorded while effect sounds like tire screech are.... With TS2014 f.i. all sounds are recorded. Is the only way to add sounds to an FSX video to record them with another program and then add them via a video editor program ?....

And now, Ladies and Gentlemen, Highly Honored Auditorium, Drumrrrrrrrrrrrrooooll!!! please welcome my first ever FSX video! :

Thank you very much for watching ! Every tips about working with Dailymotion/Shadowplay, and especially about adding sounds to FSX videos, will be highly appreciated !

Cheers,

Woow! That was quick ! :wink:

You mean you don't see a link neither ??....

You could try Dailymotion to upload your video. Very easy : http://www.dailymotion.com

No clue yet why you can't view it but will investigate. Thanks ! :encouragement:
 
What about now, Anthin ??.....

Proved i needed to confirm my email address before all options would be available. Just did that. Hope that changed anything for you ?....

Personally i see my video nicely embedded in my post...

Thanks!
 
Congrats on your first video! FRAPS should record sound... most of my videos were recorded with FRAPS. Now using Dxtory.

Shadowplay is not an option for me (ATI). Seems to be a good program from the yt videos I've seen.
 
Thanks, Ted ! :smile:

While i tried it only on my old rig about a month ago and even bought a copy i got pretty awful results with FRAPS even on my own HD.... I suppose i should get better results now ( two big SSD's and GTX 780). Going to try Bandicam first. And now you talk about Dxtory..... There's a lot of these video recording programs around, isn't it... I do seem to recall that a while ago FRAPS was the only way to go.... ?

Does my video actually turn up embedded in my post for you, Ted ? Can you view it in 1080HD Full Screen ?

Btw, did you get my PM ? ( email address for Suzanne )

Cheers,
Jan
 
Hi Jan. Great vid and quality. It does appear embedded in your post. Watching this thread with elevated interest. New to FSX and want to try recording videos myself eventually. :encouragement: :encouragement:

Shadowplay sure is brilliant. No matter what I'm recording, I don't see the framerate decrease by a single frame. I don't know how they do it!
 
Thanks, Ted ! :smile:

Yep... 1080HD FS works fine and Suzanne has me new email address. Thanks.

Going to be interesting to see my stuff on the big screen from Suzanne. :jump:
 
Does this mean we should soon see a video of your work on the C47 V.C. ? :mixed-smiley-010:

Was kinda expecting a question like that.... :)

Alas, still waiting for Hansi to turn up with the goods... do get a little worried about what's keeping him...

Absolutely! Thanks, mate ! :cool:


( trying Bandicam now, no FSX engine sound recording yet.... )
 
Hi, Jan!

Good things take time.
Great things take a long time.
And the best things take the longest time.

Since we are expecting the best thing ever to be delivered to our virtual world, patience is the key... :jump:

Groeten,
Markus.
