Steam user will be able to set the recording length, but it is set to 120 minutes by default. Like NVIDIA’s Shadowplay, Steam Game Recording can be activated via hotkeys. At 12Mbps, Valve estimates that the average size of a 120-minute video would be around 10GB.
The best part is that Valve says the Steam Game Recording feature won’t interfere or conflict with other recorders. Another really nice thing is that the feature allows you to add different markets, indicating which event is player or game-added. You can even jump to different timelines of the game through the simple “Jump to Next Event” buttons.
As mentioned the Steam Game Recording Mode is still in Beta. The good news is that it isn’t difficult to gain access to it. Simply go to Settings > Interface > Beta Participation. After choosing between the Steam beta Update or Families Beta, you can just go to the Game Recording option in the Settings menu and activate it.
Even more exciting? Steam Game Recording is also Steam Deck Verified.
