I just installed 1.17 Beta...

The video i just recorded is broken !!!

it plays 20 seconds at 1 frame pr second
then at 20 seconds it plays random frames
then at 22 seconds it fast forward and starts playing normal
later on it chops up

I'm reverting to 1.16.3 which worked perfectly

Awesome! I already started testing it. I'll provide some info once i've used it enough. ;)

EDIT: (decided to re-edit because i felt my text was messed up a little)

Ok, this is what i've noticed:

Steam Overlay issue appears to be fixed, at least mostly, though there's still a bit on "confliction" with some games. This issue is on the POV that if i press games/applications mode BEFORE i launch a game, it now lets Steam Overlay load up and can be used like normal. Even recording it while playing is possible. I'm happy about this! :) although a couple of games have issues with it. Sleeping didn't let me record Overlay and Just Cause 2 wasn't even detected by Action.

Random stuttering occured when recording with default settings. I think it's due to recording at 60 fps. While playing Batman Arkham City i noticed my recording fps jumping between 40-60 fps. Caused stuttering ranged between 0.3 - 0.5 secs.

Mode "leak" causes my Action to detected my game in Screen-mode. I don't really consider this a bad thing but i think it's unintentional. I don't mind switching to application mode BEFORE launching a game now that it won't interfere with Overlay.

Mafia 2 still crashes when i try to record it. Only from the menu does it let me, at least the last time i tried. GTA 3 & Vice City still not detected. If i recall correctly, don't they use some version of DirectX?

Action-logo has a weird "shadow" to its left on top of screen.

Function issues! Just a moment ago i was recording Portal 2 but it didn't seem to stop. Alt-tabbed to desktop to discover Action was not responding. I relaunched it and noticed that my output locations were reset back to defaults. Changing output locations is "laggy" and often seems like it's about to crash. I tried deleting the faulty Portal 2 footage but instead it caused Action to crash along with my laptop!

Will keep updating my post if i notice more.

why do you care ?

If the system is unstable you need to cool it better and stop overclocking irresponsibly :twisted:

If the system is NOT unstable... then frag some more !
