System requirements

Operating system

64bit Windows 7 or higher.
Support for more operating systems coming soon.

CPU

Modern 64bit CPU with at least SSSE3 support (i3-8100 or better recommended).
Please use Trial version before buying, to check if your CPU is sufficient to record as many sources as you want.

GPU

Dedicated or integrated GPU supporting OpenGL 4.0 or higher.

Storage

Multiple high-capacity HDDs or SSDs may be required, in general:

  • One 1080p60 source needs up to 25 MB/s of writing bandwidth and up to 90 GB per hour of recording
  • One 4Kp60 source needs up to 50 MB/s of writing bandwidth and up to 180 GB per hour of recording

You can verify performance of your drives with appropriate software (look for continuous writing speed).

Network

Multiple aggregated 1Gbit adapters or one 10Gbit adapter may be required to record more than four 1080p60 sources.

Changelog

Version 0.5

This version brings improved performance, updated UI, new options and bug fixes.

  1. Lowered required OpenGL version to 4.0, to make running on older hardware possible.
    If you have an integrated GPU that doesn’t support OpenGL 4.0 or higher, please use graphics settings to run the app with the dedicated GPU.
  2. Revamped audio levels indicators.
  3. Enabled High DPI support.
    When using multiple displays, it is recommended that they all have the same scaling factor.
  4. Added ‘Viewing only’ option.
    Enable it on sources that are not going to be recorded, to conserve network bandwidth and CPU usage.
  5. Added option to additionally record preview streams (360p).
  6. Added audio gain option (integer values only).
    To prevent audio clipping, set levels so that peaks are below 0dBVU.
  7. Enhanced settings dialogs for better performance.
  8. Added logging mechanism.
  9. Improved connection times.
  10. Improved stability.
  11. Fixed minor bugs.
