[Suggestion/Request] Force Down Sampling

Sun Apr 05, 2015 8:43 am

Hey,

I have some older games that I want to record.
I bumped supersampling via nvidia inspector to improve quality.

Of course by forcing supersampling I'm causing the application to render in much higher resolution.
So capture/encode is being also performed in such huge resolution as well.

In order to fix that, simply I need to resize captured video stream.

Programs like Dxtory fix that issue automaticaly using simple option.
It's called Force Down Sampling

When you set that, Dxtory forcibly down scales it's video capture based on your settings, preventing errors associated with a bug that sometimes happens with downscaled video capture when capturing directly from the GPU's video buffer

Now, when you do 4xSGSSAA and start to record like that, Your fps will suck.

Can you implement that function like dxtory does?

Sparse Grid Supersampling realy improve quality, but you can't record like that, with Dxtory it's possible even on slow GPU.
Thank you.

Hello!

We've forwarded your request to the development team.

Thank you for letting us know.

Any update on this?

This is a must have for high resolution/quality captures.
If you want I may do a little video demonstrating benefits and why this option should be implemented. ;-)

If I may pop in on this, there is something you can do in Bandicam that will be similar to what you want, while not maybe being exactly what you want, if you want to try it.

Under the Format Settings, in the Video category, within the choices from the Size pull-down menu, simply choose a resolution you wish to directly capture at for sharing/uploading. You can even input your own resolution (for non-standard sizes, etc) for the recording to be created with. Be aware that this will of course affect the over all apparent Quality of the recording, but with sufficient Bitrate/Quality setting, it can be acceptable while maintaining a much smaller file size output.

This may not be exactly what you want, but it is one idea. Good luck with it

Hey, GameTipsAndMore

No, this is not working that way as you describe, I realy wish.
Unfortunately when I press record button fps goes down to 10fps :/ even at 1024x768 resolution.

In Dxtory this function works perfect!
Take a look how clean the game is even at 1024x resolution with 4xSGSSAA

Hello SuperGod,

I'm sorry it did not work out for you :cry: I had done something similar in the past and thought that was it.

Other than some specific game incompatibility (does it work with any games?) or some program corruption (you could try reinstall Bandicam); since it is something that can be done with another program at this time, perhaps it is just something specific to Bandicam... at least it's nice to know they are looking into it :) I hope it works out for you soon.

Nope, it's a global problem.
It's been like that since forever.
Simple bandicam missing that feature.
Try with Dxtory ;-)
