Action! Crashes when I stop the video. Consistently.

Mobo: Asus Sabertooth z77

Hi this is another of my issues with this program that I cannot solve. After I was able to use Intel Quick Sync to record, every time I am able to record my game crashes as I hit F9 for the second time, all the time. Do you need a video as an example? Because I am just about done with this program as it has driven me crazy with it's problems when I was sure it was the program I wanted to buy for recording.

Does the same situation occurs with AVI files?

Uninstall your Intel gpu drivers.. and install the 3071 version instead..

That was my solution.

I tried to update my drivers but It keeps saying that I downloaded the wrong ones regardless. I know I had the right ones, can you link me to yours since we have the same cpu?

you need to make sure the iGPU is active somehow, otherwize Windows refuses to install the drivers.

Okay so does this mean that I follow the Action! Tutorial on how to activate it and then install, or I use Virtu MVP then install....? Does it matter? I mean It has to have been activated in my BIOS because both of the above techniques work to turn it on.

Thank you so much this resolved the issue! But are these the current Intel iGPU drivers or old ones that work? And also, can I have Virtu MVP iGPU virutalization and record with Quick Sync or are they both using the iGPU. (One for more FPS, and the other recording??)

Also another question (sorry!). Why are the first few and the last few seconds of the video extremely choppy, like 5fps or so? it's only ending a video and beginning(sometimes).

Sorry for all the Questions, I just want to know if I am ready to buy!

Here's an example!

The Drivers are "old" ... some months i think... but thats no problem..

When starting up recording, the buffer needs to fill and the harddrive needs to accept data... by limiting the speed of frames, the system can get up to speed.

when ending, the system needs to finish the file, and therefore also require a bit of extra power, resulting in framedrops.

I purchased Action! some time ago, when i found out that i could record using QuickSync... after spending lots of time setting up all parameters i must say im happy with the result and the product.. it doesnt work perfectly - but very close. And i love that i dont need to encode AVI files to MP4 after each recording.,.. its every $ worth i think.. and its still being developed, and lot of new features are comming - so i would get it now while its cheap. :)
