As a seasoned gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I must say that Steam Game Recording has been a game-changer for me! After years of struggling with third-party recording software and constantly running out of storage space, this new system is a breath of fresh air.
With Steam Game Recording, gamers now have an innovative method for saving gameplay clips. This novel system offers a background recording mode, manual recording, as well as a timeline and clip editing feature. Here’s some guidance on how to utilize Steam Game Recording and where your videos will be stored.
How to use Steam Game Recording
Steam Game Recording employs a dual-step recording methodology. First, you need to capture your gameplay, followed by exporting the recorded footage through a separate interface. Prior to starting the recording, make sure all settings are properly configured.
Go ahead and open up the settings on Steam, and make your way towards the newly added section for game recording. In this area, you can choose how the recording process occurs, either automatically in the background or manually initiated. If you opt for the automatic background recording, Steam will save 120 minutes of footage that you can later trim or export as needed. On the other hand, selecting manual recording means Steam will only capture video when instructed using a specified button command.
Make certain to activate the Record Button (Start/Stop), choose your preferred frame rate, and in case of Background Recording, specify the video duration, quality, and clip length. After completing these steps, you’re ready to start recording.
After finishing your recording, you need to export it by navigating to the “Recordings & Screenshots” menu. This option is accessible by clicking on the “View” button within the Steam launcher (the Media tab for Steam Deck users). Once there, select the video you wish to save and double-click it to enter a more comprehensive editing mode. In this mode, you can either use the “Clip” button to extract a specific segment from your recording or press the “Share” button followed by “Export Video File” to immediately save the entire clip.
As a gamer, when I’m all set to save my gameplay video, I pick “Export Video File.” Then, I adjust the “File Size” setting to decide how big I want my file. Keep in mind that a larger size means a higher resolution and smoother frame rate. Once happy with the selection, I hit “Export Video” to start the process of saving it to the folder I’ve chosen.
Where Steam Game Recordings are saved
Steam Game Recordings are usually saved wherever you have Steam installed and then within a few sub-folders. You can check where Steam saves the clips by opening Settings, going to Game Recording, and checking the Recordings Folder. Players on Steam . Ideally, this should be assigned to a drive with considerable storage. Before exporting a video, the recordings exist as .json and .m4s files.
Additionally, you have the option to access your recordings by selecting ‘View Recordings & Screenshots’. Here, you’ll discover all the content that Steam has captured. This is the area where you’ll need to make edits and convert your videos into real .mp4 format.
