    Review DXtory

    Dxtory is a program that allows capturing video of applications that make use of DirectX and OpenGL, mainly video games.

    Capturing video from video games is very common today. This is due distributing a video is as simple as uploading it to any video platform like YouTube or Vimeo.
    One of the major drawbacks to recording gameplay is finding a program that does not consume a lot of system resources and therefore does not interfere with the performance of the video game.

    Dxtory allows capturing video and images of video games or any other application that uses OpenGL or DirectX. This program stands out because of its low system resources, allowing a smooth gaming experience in which we will hardly notice the program is running. The video obtained will have a high Frame Rate (number of recorded images per second), and the quality of the video image will be very high. All that makes this software perfect for video game recordings, even those that require a lot of PC power.

    The configuration program may seem a bit complex initially, but if we want to get the most out of this software, we must use its advanced features. We must have installed multiple hard drives in the PC to achieve this, at least 2. The more hard drives, the more performance will have this software.

    In the “Directory” tab, we need to add a directory of each hard disk so that if we have 3 hard drives in our PC, each one must be added to this configuration screen.
    In the “ Video ” tab, in the “ Output ”->“ File Format ” option, we must select the “ RawCap ” option. This will capture uncompressed video and save it to the hard drives we selected in the previous step.
    Once the capture is completed, we must use the tool “ RawCapConv,” which is accessible from the first button in the program's bottom left. This tool will attach all files saved during the capture and convert them to AVI format.

    When we open a game that uses DirectX or OpenGL, we can see a green number in the top left of the screen. These numbers indicate the images per second (FPS) running the game. When we start recording the video, the numbers will change color to orange, and we will also see the FPS of the recorded video. This way, we will know if the program affects the video game performance or if the video is recorded with enough FPS. If we see that the video is not recorded with sufficient FPS, we can try to change the program's settings to improve the performance of the recordings.

    The first thing we need to do is add directories where we will save videos and screenshots.
    To start recording, we must press F12 while in the game and press, F12 again to stop recording.
    If you want to take a screenshot, press F11 at any game time.
    These keys can be changed in the program's options.

    The software is paid for and offers a fully functional Demo to insert a watermark in captured videos and images.
