Hi, I am trying to record my game-play with the screen-recorder my PowerDirector 17 came with (Screen recorder 2). I have its settings on 1080p, 60 FPS, and full-size. The bitrate is also on 32,000 kbps. But when I finish recording, and I watch my video, it does not look like what I had seen when recording. When I record, my game-play is clear and nicely playing. But when I watch my video that I made from it, the 1080p looks like 480p. Plus, it's overall blurry! How I fix this? I have to make my videos soon, and I cannot publish videos that look horrible.

Hi,
My recordings with version 2 are as expected and look great at 1080p. I just tested again and didn't see what you see.

I doubt Screen Recorder is the issue, but rather your GPU is having issue recording, especially during moments with lots of motion. First try updating your GPU driver to the latest version...from the web site. You should also generate your DXDiag.txt file and post it here so other users can better help you. You can find the info on how to do that in the readme:

If you want to record your game play, better to upgrade to Screen Recorder 4 so you can do it directly in record Game mode. This may record the game more smoothly, again depending on your GPU. You can also custom set the bitrate in version 4 for your recordings. You can try the trial version first to see if it helps.
