    Since almost all of my reports are videos, many players have asked me this question and I decided to make a mini tutorial.

    Here is my YouTube channel where I upload my report videos. https://goo.gl/TAADqe

    You may be surprised but I use a recording program included in Windows 10. This program is easy and quick to access and records in a good enough quality.

    How to access the Recording program [Windows10].

    • First press Win key [[​IMG] ]+G. This will open the game dvr.
    • In this mini bar you just have to hit the record button.
    [​IMG]
    (Win key + alt +R. For quick recording)
    In the right top corner the program will show you a record timer.
    • When you finish your recordings press Win key + G again and hit the stop button.
    [​IMG]
    (or Win key + alt +R.)
    • The video will usually be saved on the captures folder in Videos (Unless you change the direction). [C:\Users\[YourPC]\Videos\Captures]

    Hope this comes in handy.


    Note: For the players who get a message saying "There's nothing to record. Play some more and try again."

    • Open the game bar and click the settings icon.

    • Mark the box that says "Remember this as a game"

    Windows Button + R is what I use, it's more efficient. Also you must be in windowed mode (I have seen) for this to work.
    Edit: Window Button + Alt + R

    I always kept bringing up that bar but never understood what it did.
    Thank you for explaining.

    Updated, hope it helps you. If that don't solve the problem I believe is a region issue.

    I believe it can record as long as 2 hours (Settings). I have just recorded about 28 mins max.

    30-40mb per minute in 720p in standard settings. No, it only records the program audio and music you are listening.

    Just install fraps... Fraps is simple, doesn t affect your performance (when you aren t recording) and show your FPS. F9 for record :)
