Mirillis Action not recording old game from Game Tab...

Thu May 10, 2018 11:36 am

Hello Mirillis Team and all that goes with it. I'm new to Mirillis Action and just loving it and it's many features.
I have an old game called "Expendable Released: May 15, 1999" You can find it on https://www.gog.com/game/expendable
The game is compatible with Direct X 7 + and can be played on Windows '98 and above to this present windows 10 which I'm using.
When I set Mirillis Action on the Game tab for recording and start to record the game it does not respond and remains non responsive.
However when I select the Screen tab and start to record the game it's working excellent and recording the game.
I'm quite happy that it's able to record the game from the Screen tab, but my question is if Mirillis Action is backward compatible to record old games like the above mentioned using Direct X 7 seeing that I can only record that old game from the Screen tab?

I'm using a legal copy of Windows 10 64bit with an AMD Quad Core Processor. Mother Board is; GA-F2A68HM-DS2H (rev. 1.1)
https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/GA ... -rev-11#ov
12GB of Memory
Monitor screen size; 1440x900
Thank you.

Game older than DirectX 8 can only be recorded in screen recording mode or in region recording mode (so you can select a region of game window to only record the game).
