In their own words
PlayShot
PlayShot is a free Windows app for saving recent PC gameplay moments. It records continuously in the background into a replay buffer adjustable from 30 seconds to 5 minutes, then a hotkey saves the recent footage. Separate controls can record a session or capture a screenshot. Clips are filed under the launched game and stored on the user’s drive as ordinary video files. The maker says it works with most PC games using DirectX, Vulkan, or OpenGL, from any launcher or standalone executable. Recording uses the GPU’s dedicated video hardware and supports 1080p capture without a watermark. Users can trim clips, choose thumbnails, and export to MP4 or GIF. Game, microphone, and Discord audio have separate faders and can be remixed during export. Share links let friends watch in a browser. No account is needed, and clips leave the PC only when a share link is created.
