Hello,
I've been scratching my head for a while, and eventually came here to seek help.
So I'm having a periodic micro stutter in the recordings. I've tried various options in Action!, but the issue doesn't seem to be related to a specific capture mode / file format / quality setting.
The sttuter is introduced in a very timely manner, so I believe it is rather a bad frame pacing issue. I set frame limit to 120 in Nnvidia Control Panel, and record in 60 so this really shouldn't be an issue. I decided to check the FPS counter on the HUD, and it showed 123 fps. It fluctuates; mostly stays in 123, and occasionally goes down to 120.
I closed Action!, checked fps with RTSS and it showed solid 120. I thought maybe NVCP fps limiter is not Action! - friendly, so set frame limit on RTSS and checked the HUD again. Now it showed 122fps, fluctuating in the same manner. Tried with 60 limit as well. The HUD showed 62fps, again fluctuating in the same manner.
Is this simply a HUD bug? Is this a known issue? Or Is it the case that Action! is injecting arbitrary frames and actually causing this frame pacing issue?
This is my machine's spec in case this matters:
Lenovo Legion 5 Pro
Ryzen 7 5800H
8GB RTX 3070 (140W)
32GB DDR4-3200
M.2 1TB Hynix P31 + 1TB Samsung 970 Evo
Any helpful input would be greatly appreciated.
