Are there any free as in libre (or at the very least afree as in beer) screen capture programs for Windows that can produce silky smooth 1080p video using lagarith or (less ideally) uncompressed RGB?

CamStudio produce videos where the mouse pointer i laggy, on a 32 core Xeon machine with 64 GB RAM, a 280X and a fast SSD.

So far, the only program I've found that can do it is Camtasia, but that software costs money.

Also, whydo you always have to pay if you want something to just werk™?

ffmpeg

OBS with amd's gpu encoder.

OBS with NVENC

ffsplit. give it a try (uses ffmpeg as backend)

OBS with NVENC or AMD VCE. No reason to use Fraps or CamStudio anymore at all.

I need to produce lossless output.

>tfw linux comes with ffmpeg ootb
>windows plebs need to use unregistered hypercam to upload their mario LP to youtube
Sad.

unregistered hypercam 2

Why do we never see Unregistered Hypercam 1 on videos? Does it even exist?

Use -crf 0 then

Why does it need to be lossless? OBS with a high bitrate will be very high quality, basically indistinguishable from lossless to most people. Not to mention how large uncompressed files are.

simplescreenrecorder is great on linux. never found anything better than camstudio for windows. buggy piece of shit.

Active Presenter is free for personal use. Here's a shitty vid I just made.

>Why does it need to be lossless?

Because it has to go into a lossless workflow.

Lossy source files means lossy intermediates, which isn't acceptable.

That's laggy as fuck.

that's because I had to decrease the fps to get it under 3MB.

neither ActivePresenter nor browser are laggy when actually using them.

here's one at 20fps.

(the first one was 10fps)

Alright, gonna try this now.

Hold my beer.

and 30fps

another 30fps, but a lot longer. I had to reduce to 20% quality to get it under 3MB.

fpbp

Have you tried it with -crf 0

??

> -crf 0
I don't even.
I used ActivePresenter, and no idea if it supports special flags like that.
