Any feedback is appreciated.

Pretty neat. How do you record? Does the game offer or do you need to do some video card trickery. Looks great.

I use a program called OBS studio. Its pretty neat. I can tell it to record anything that goes full-screen.
As soon as i start a game it shows up on the second screen, i hit record and it records video and audio.
I can tell it to separate out the game audio, desktop audio and mic/input audio on to separate tracks so if i want to put it in to video editing software it will provide me with different audio tracks to edit.
The best part is its free
Considering ive got over 600 games sitting there waiting to be played i figured why not record some of it and see what happens?

Best of luck to you with this Mikey! I don’t understand the attraction of watching someone else play a video game, but I know that it does have an audience. Have fun with this!

I thought about that as well Stik when my kids and their friends were watch call of duty matches. Gathered around the screen, hooting and hollering. It was weird.

So I went back out to the living room and watched a football game with my buddies

We're not that different

Yeah it always cracks me up when a sports fan when talking about the team that they follow says “we” did this or that… buddy, you’re not out in that field or part of that organization… you’re just an athletic supporter

… you’re just an athletic supporter

Um... What you get up to at the weekends Stik is your own business...

[Stikpusher]

Lets just say that my weekends do NOT revolve around sports...

unless it is the immediate action drill that I was taught long ago at the Ft Benning Finishing School for Wayward Boys:
Slap (up on the magazine to insure that it is properly seated)
Pull (the charging handle to the rear)
Observe (for a round extracting and/or a double feed in the chamber)
Release (the charging handle, allowing the bolt to ride forward)
Tap (the forward assist to insure that the bolt is seated properly)
Shoot
