如何使用NVIDIA ShadowPlay录制PC游戏

Recording Doom Eternal with NVIDIA ShadowPlay/Share

NVIDIA’s ShadowPlay, now known as NVIDIA Share, offers easy gameplay recording, live streaming, and even an FPS counter overlay. It can automatically record gameplay in the background–just on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One–or only record gameplay when you tell it to.

NVIDIA的ShadowPlay(现称为NVIDIA Share)可提供便捷的游戏录制，实时流媒体播放甚至FPS计数器覆盖。它可以在后台自动录制游戏(仅在PlayStation 4和Xbox One上)，或者仅在您告知时才录制游戏。

If you have a PC with modern NVIDIA graphics hardware, there’s a good chance you have access to this feature. It’s similar to Windows 10’s Game DVR, but has more features–and it works on Windows 7, too.

如果您的计算机装有现代NVIDIA图形硬件，则很有可能可以使用此功能。它类似于Windows 10的Game DVR ，但具有更多功能，并且也适用于Windows 7。

是的，ShadowPlay影响游戏性能 (Yes, ShadowPlay Impacts Game Performance)

Before we start, however, we should note: Recording with ShadowPlay will decrease your game performance by a bit. NVIDIA notes that a performance penalty of 5% is typical, while it could be 10% in more demanding games.

但是，在开始之前，我们应该注意：使用ShadowPlay录制会稍微降低游戏性能。 NVIDIA指出，通常会降低5％的性能，而在要求更高的游戏中可能会降低10％。

If you have a fast enough PC, this shouldn’t necessarily matter. All gameplay recording solutions take system resources, including Windows 10’s Game DVR feature. But you may want to disable ShadowPlay when you’re not using it.

如果您有足够快的PC，则不一定重要。所有的游戏录制解决方案都占用系统资源，包括Windows 10的Game DVR功能。但是，当您不使用ShadowPlay时，可能要禁用它。

Update: We’ve updated this article with new information about how ShadowPlay (now known as NVIDIA Share) works in 2020. Consult the instructions above to learn how it works on the latest versions of NVIDIA’s software. We’re leaving the original instructions for older versions of ShadowPlay here for historical reference.

更新：我们已使用有关ShadowPlay(现称为NVIDIA Share)在2020年如何工作的新信息对本文进行了更新。请查阅上面的说明，以了解它如何在NVIDIA软件的最新版本上工作。我们保留了ShadowPlay较早版本的原始说明，以供历史参考。

You can check NVIDIA’s website to see a list of NVIDIA graphics hardware that supports ShadowPlay. However, if you have NVIDIA hardware, you can just check on your PC too.

您可以访问NVIDIA网站查看支持ShadowPlay的NVIDIA图形硬件列表。但是，如果您具有NVIDIA硬件，则也可以在PC上进行检查。

To do so, open the “GeForce Experience” application from your Start menu. If it isn’t yet installed, download and install the GeForce Experience application from NVIDIA. In addition to ShadowPlay, this application also offers NVIDIA graphics driver updates, one-click game settings optimization, and game streaming from your PC–all rather useful features.

为此，请从“开始”菜单中打开“ GeForce Experience”应用程序。如果尚未安装，请从NVIDIA下载并安装GeForce Experience应用程序。除了ShadowPlay之外，该应用程序还提供NVIDIA图形驱动程序更新，一键式游戏设置优化以及从PC上进行的游戏流传输-所有相当有用的功能。

Under the “My Rig” tab in the application, click the “ShadowPlay” tab and check if your PC meets the system requirements. If it does, ShadowPlay will be “Ready.” If it doesn’t, the application will tell you why.

如何使用ShadowPlay记录或流式玩游戏 (How to Record or Stream Gameplay With ShadowPlay)

By default, ShadowPlay is off and not doing anything in the background. To enable it, you’ll need to launch the NVIDIA GeForce Experience application and click the “ShadowPlay” button at the top right corner of the window.

默认情况下，ShadowPlay处于关闭状态，并且在后台不执行任何操作。要启用它，您需要启动NVIDIA GeForce Experience应用程序，然后单击窗口右上角的“ ShadowPlay”按钮。

Click the switch at the left of the ShadowPlay window to flip it to on. A green light will appear, indicating NVIDIA ShadowPlay is enabled.

单击ShadowPlay窗口左侧的开关，将其打开。将会出现绿灯，表示已启用NVIDIA ShadowPlay。

By default, ShadowPlay uses “Shadow & Manual” mode. Shadow Mode will automatically record your gameplay and keep the last five minutes. When you press the Alt+F10 keyboard shortcut, ShadowPlay will save a clip of the last five minutes of gameplay to your Videos folder.

默认情况下，ShadowPlay使用“阴影和手动”模式。阴影模式将自动记录您的游戏玩法，并保留最后五分钟。当您按Alt + F10键盘快捷键时，ShadowPlay会将游戏最后5分钟的剪辑保存到“视频”文件夹中。

With Manual mode, you can press the Alt+F9 keyboard shortcut to start manually recording a clip, then press Alt+F9 to stop the clip when you’re done recording. ShadowPlay also allows you to press Alt+F12 to view a live FPS counter in any game, even if you aren’t recording.

在“手动”模式下，您可以按Alt + F9键盘快捷键开始手动记录剪辑，然后在完成记录后按Alt + F9停止剪辑。 ShadowPlay还允许您按Alt + F12来查看任何游戏中的实时FPS计数器，即使您没有录制也是如此。

You can tweak these settings after enabling ShadowPlay (as described later in this guide), but if they look fine to you, you can start recording now. Just launch a game and use the above hotkeys to record gameplay and show the FPS counter.

您可以在启用ShadowPlay之后对这些设置进行调整(如本指南后面所述)，但是如果您觉得它们很好，则可以立即开始录制。只需启动游戏并使用上面的热键来记录游戏玩法并显示FPS计数器。

Recordings will appear in a game-specific subfolder of your Videos folder by default.

默认情况下，录制内容将显示在“视频”文件夹中特定于游戏的子文件夹中。

如何录制OpenGL游戏(和整个Windows桌面) (How to Record OpenGL Games (and Your Entire Windows Desktop))

Not every game will work with NVIDIA ShadowPlay by default. ShadowPlay only directly supports with games that use Direct3D, and not OpenGL. While most games do use Direct3D, there are a few that use OpenGL instead. For example, DOOM, which we used as an example above, uses OpenGL, as does Minecraft.

默认情况下，并非每个游戏都可与NVIDIA ShadowPlay一起使用。 ShadowPlay仅直接支持使用Direct3D的游戏，而不支持OpenGL。尽管大多数游戏确实使用Direct3D，但也有少数游戏使用OpenGL。例如，上面作为示例使用的DOOM和Minecraft一样都使用OpenGL。

To record OpenGL games that don’t work with ShadowPlay, head to NVIDIA GeForce Experience > Preferences > ShadowPlay and activate the “Allow Desktop Capture” option. ShadowPlay will now be able to record your Windows desktop, including any OpenGL games running in a window on your desktop.

要录制不能与ShadowPlay一起使用的OpenGL游戏，请转到NVIDIA GeForce Experience>“偏好设置”>“ ShadowPlay”，然后激活“允许桌面捕获”选项。 ShadowPlay现在将能够记录您的Windows桌面，包括在桌面的窗口中运行的所有OpenGL游戏。

Automatic background “Shadow” recording and the FPS counter don’t work in this mode. However, you can still start and stop manual recordings using the hotkeys.

自动后台“阴影”记录和FPS计数器在此模式下不起作用。但是，您仍然可以使用热键启动和停止手动录制。

The “Shadow time” option allows you to choose how much gameplay ShadowPlay saves in its buffer. You can choose any time between 1 and 20 minutes. Bear in mind that a longer time requires more hard disk space. How much more disk space depends on the quality level you choose.

“影子时间”选项允许您选择ShadowPlay在其缓冲区中保存多少游戏性。您可以选择1到20分钟之间的任何时间。请记住，更长的时间需要更多的硬盘空间。多少磁盘空间取决于您选择的质量级别。

The “Quality” option allows you to configure the quality of your recording. By default, it’s set to High, and will record the video at in-game resolution, 60 frames per second, 50 Mbps quality, and as H.264 video. You can select the Low or Medium profiles, or pick Custom and change the individual settings manually.

“质量”选项使您可以配置记录的质量。默认情况下，它设置为“高”，并将以游戏内分辨率，每秒60帧，50 Mbps质量和H.264视频录制视频。您可以选择“低”或“中”配置文件，或者选择“自定义”并手动更改各个设置。

The “Audio” option allows you to choose which audio tracks are included with your recorded video. By default, the recording will include will include all in-game audio.
