Q. How does the video capture system work?
The video caption system works simply by pressing the semicolon (; ) while playing. This will start a recording using the settings in your “capture” options page. Options in there include things like resolution and other things. The higher the quality, the more disk space the recording will require and the more severe of a performance impact will be felt. The “Quick Capture” is a handy little thing that records the previous 30 seconds of footage continuously allowing you to play and just hit record should something ridiculously awesome happen. That said, this has a massive impact on performance as the game is effectively recording your playing ALL THE TIME. For performance, it’s best to turn it off (even on higher end machines). credit goes to Gotitdone, BreadMan, and Freyar for typing and editing this FAQ.
