Hello,
first of all, I only use OBS to record videos, since I'm not interested by streaming at all.
So, my problem is when I try to record a specific game called Planet Of Death. Since it's an old game (released in 1997), I also have to use a glide wrapper, called dgVoodoo, in order to run the game properly. And I haven't the choice of the capture mode, which is Monitor capture (the other modes give a black screen).
Here's my log :
That's the problem : my frame rate is low, very low (about 10-15 FPS). But it happens only when playing. In the menus I get 30 FPS.
I tested multiple settings both in OBS and the dgVoodoo glide wrapper, and noticed that two parameters increased my FPS : the "Capture Layered Windows" in OBS and an option about the LFB (Linear Frame Buffer, I suppose) called "Closer to a real hardware" in dgVoodoo. However, it's not enough to get the 30 FPS. I also tested different bitrates & resolutions, but nothing happened.
Oh, and I already recorded 2 or 3 other old games (which don't need the wrapper) with the same settings in Monitor capture, without any problems.
So, considering the two options I enabled before, my question is : is there a way to get the 30 FPS I'd like ? Or is it simply an incompatibility between OBS and dgVoodoo which I can't avoid ?
In advance, thanks for your help !
