I asked Robert Hallock about this specifically, and he explains that they had “very limited time with the title and been able to implement some respectable performance improvements thanks to the skill of our driver engineers. On top of that users can set the maximum recording bitrate, and the audio ’s Jason Evangelho has a fascinating story on the disappointment that owners of AMD graphics cards are about to feel when they discover that Watch Dogs is largely unoptimized for their system. Under ReLive > Recording, as I previously mentioned, the recording frame rate as well as the encoding type are adjustable. For those who want to tweak the settings, however, there are a few things of note. ReLive is very simple to use and only requires that users turn it on within Radeon Software under the ReLive tab. Within the desktop software users can play, share, and even trim down videos for minor edits. Recordings are then accessible in the videos folder in Windows or via Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition under the Connect tab. To stop recording, hit Ctrl + Shift + R again. Trimming a video in Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition. Even if the tab is open but not visible, ReLive will refuse to work. ReLive will fail to run, however, if a browser is displaying protected content such as a Netflix stream. ReLive also doubles as a video capture tool for the desktop to create how-to tutorials or just to show something off. Instant Replay is easily one of the best features of any recording software since it lets gamers save a key move, goof, or bug after the fact. This setting is customizable up to a full 20 minutes of gameplay, though I’d suggest five minutes or less is ideal for most games. For anyone who doesn’t want to do a straight-up recording all the time, ReLive includes an instant replay feature that, by default, will save the last minute of gameplay when you press a hotkey.

That’s adjustable, however, as is the encoding (AVC or HEVC). By default, ReLive records at the in-game resolution with a maximum 60 frames per second.
