[Feature Request] Recording: Width Limiting / Free or Optional Aspect Ratio
I play on 3 screens using nVidia Surround so Windows sees the 3 screens as 1 very
wide screen. There are 5 reasons the current width and height options are limiting for me:


1. I cannot upload video that is 1 screen high and 3 screens wide as it creates
a very bad fish-eye effect, which in turn make the main content look too small.
The distortion from this makes it very uncomfortable to watch.

2. The file size of the Background Recording contains at a minimum 33%
more pixels than I need just due to the excess width alone, wasting power
and increasing wear on disks.

3. I record mostly World Records, so all the recorded attempts that is not used
is waste. This waste is also a minimum of 33% too large due to unnecessary
wide picture alone.

4. The unnecessary pixels also waste both power and resources, increasing
the possibly negative effect on stutter on top of wear on the disks.

5. Because my only (not so good quality wise) workaround also includes having
to run Replays of sometimes over 20 minutes, it's a massive amount of wasted
time and resources.



My problem would be solved if I could limit my resolution for the Background Recording from:

- 7680 x 1440 = (3 screens)
to
- 5120 x 1440 = (2 screens) = ("1/2 screen Left" + "1 screen Middle" + "1/2 screen Right")

Example video on this Aspect Ration in my Profile Page.

Current, pretty bad workaround:

Running Replay in Window Mode and that way get the wanted Aspect Ratio of
5120 x 1440 recorded to Background.

Problem is that I get a lot of stutter doing this, and also having to run through the
Replay to get it to correct resolution makes a lot of extra work, power and disk use.
Some Replays are over 20 minutes. This means 20 minutes plus the time setting it
up is wasted for every time I get faster. This can be many times in a day. :p


Cheers :)

Not a solution. That will change the resolution I'm driving with. My issue is with the
Recording, not the game's resolution.

Again, this is my gaming resolution: 7680 x 1440
And what I need for the recorded file: 5120 x 1440
So I need Record to not record the outer halves of Left and Right screen.
("1/2 screen Left" + "1 screen Middle" + "1/2 screen Right")

No. As mentioned in the OP I already struggle with stutter. The more stuff I run the worse it gets. The whole point of using Steam Recording is to minimize the impact of recording. I'm not here for workarounds.

I have been recording gaming in 4K quality for almost 10 years and have tried a lot of software. The Steam Background Recording has very low impact, the lowest I have ever seen, so my reason for posting here is to help improve it by sharing my needs, nothing else.

Cheers :)
Run Defrag maybe????

Why?
It should make the Drive Contiguous or Line up everything in Order

SSD's does not work like that. And even if they did, it would not help anything with the game stuttering more in Window Mode, running at 40% less pixels, which is one of my arguments for having the feature I'm asking for. The 4 other reasons are important as well and is mentioned to support my request. All 5 could be solved by adding my requested feature.

I appreciate you are a helpful person, but this thread is not a help request. The thread is a Feature Request for Steam Record. I don't need help. I'm already an advanced user. I've been running multi-screens for 25 years with the need for lots of research and problem solving over the years. I know what I'm doing. ;)

Cheers :)
ok well at least I tried Mother was a Test Tech where learned a lot of Figuring out how to
