Yo guys.
I used to use a Live Gamer HD C985, but it died when I tried upgrading firmware (woo..)
Since I usually just duplicated my third monitor output to mimic my main monitor, I thought it would be easier to buy this card instead and just let my PC do the encoding.
The issue here is I experience incredible screen tearing and choppiness in the recording. My game runs fine, no lag at all. But the recording is EXTREMELY choppy.
The setup is my GTX680 is outputting 3 cables. One to my main monitor, one to my second monitor and one to the C127. The C127 is a duplicate of my main monitor. It is running in 1920x1080, which I understand is capped to record at 30fps. The issue here is I would be lucky if it even gets 15fps after all the screen tearing.
Funnily enough doing a local recording in their AVerMedia Center works perfectly fine. I get the full 30fps with no lag whatsoever, but when I try to record in OBS or XSplit I just get new levels of lag in the recording.
I've tried changing the region to NTSC but it didn't seem to make a difference. I tried changing my main monitor's resolution (and therefore the input to the capture card) to 1280x720 so I could access the 60fps option when configuring the card. This did not help.
Any recommendations guys? All help appreciated.
EDIT: This happens whether I use HDMI or DVI->VGA. It doesn't make a difference.
