Nvidia had a lot to reveal as part of its Computex 2024 announcements today. We have already discussed its new Project G-Assist demo, and also its new Small Form Factor labels for graphics cards and cases. However, that"s not all the company was talking about today,
New beta version of its Nvidia app with 120 FPS AV1 recording and more
You may remember that in February, Nvidia launched the first public beta of a new PC app that was created to take over from the Nvidia Control Panel, GeForce Experience, and RTX Experience apps. Today, the company revealed it will update the app on June 4 with some new features.
In a blog post, the company said the Nvidia app beta update will now support recording of gameplay in both AV1 SDR and HDR formats. It stated:
New with this release, the NVIDIA app now gives gamers the option of recording at 120 frames per second, for smoother, more immersive playback. While this option is available for all codecs, GeForce RTX 40 Series gamers can record even higher quality captures with AV1 at the same bit rates when compared to H.264.
The update will also return the Performance Panel which includes one-click automatic GPU tuning for gamers who don"t want to take a lot of time fine-tuning the performance of their games on their PC. The In-Game Overlay will also be improved with the update including a better way to put in filters in its Photo Mode.
