Nvidia Highlights not working

[Jøsephi Krakøwski]

The new Nvidia highlights are not working for me. I have the latest Nvidia and Experience drivers, aswell as the newest PUBG patch. Highlights are turned on but when I start up the game it doesnt ask if I wish to record my highlights.

Just wondering if somebody else is having the same issue and if you found a solution. Thanks!

Edit1:

I solved the problem, you need to go to the actual IN-GAME settings NOT Shadowplay settings. And under Graphics tab the second option is "Highligh settings" and instead of Disabled change it to Nvidia Highlights!

Then you can just right away join a game and when you get loaded on the island, Shadowplay will ask if you want it to record highlights!

And voila!

Hope this helps! Happy highlits recording everyone :D

By user PLAN
if you have the option in game greyed out and unchangable:

1. Go to GEFORCE EXPERIENCE option - GENERAL.
2. Turn off 'IN-GAME OVERLAY'.
3. Restart the game.

As it turns out, Highlights does not like Steam having Admin rights. The fix was as simple as right clicking my Steam icon, navigate to compatibility, then uncheck the "run as administrator" box.

Hit ALT+Z bring up the GFE overlay and you can pick where to save recordings in settings there.

Now it works for me. I just turned off my PC and when I launched GeForce it told me there was an update, although I made sure there wasn't any new updates.

can you pls tell me your geforce current version?

It's strange because in Settings it says 3.9.161 (BETA) and in Drivers it says 385.28.

Different things. One is version of GFE software, the other is your driver version. Totally unrelated.

Everyone thats still having trouble, here is what worked for me.
1. Before I start Pubg I have to go to geforce's desktop app and TURN OFF in game overlay.
2. Open Pubg go to graphics setting and turn on nividia highlights
3. Return to Geforce desktop app and now turn on instant replay.

If i failed to do step three nothing would record but it's worked flawless for 2 rounds now. I do have to redo these steps everytime I reopen pubg. If its working you will see the highlights icon in the bottom right hand side of your screen

Nope this doesn't even work for me. If the game isn't running when the overlay is enabled, it basically doesn't exist to GFE.

HOW I GOT IT WORKING:

I tried all the advice and guides people gave but nothing worked. Then I did this:

1) Uninstalled Geforce Experience. Rebooted.
2) Installed it again (from https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/geforce-experience/)
3) Opened Geforce Experience, went to: Settings > General. Checked the option for "Enable experimental features". It started downloading something and updating.
Then it worked!

Ofcourse Nvidia Highlights will have to be selected in the PUBG game settings.
Then I just started the game and it worked just as they say it should.

Okay guys. I've read through all these 5 pages. I've done everything as described. I even checked the TslGame files.
Everything is as it should be. The TslGame file says "ShadowPlay"

Now here's my problem. After overlay is turned off, the settings has been set to Nvidia, overlay is turned back on, my Shadowplay won't record the game. It's as if shadowplay doesn't the detect the game? I've even tried to force it by making it record, but then it asks for desktop mode to be enabled. Played a whole match with desktop mode enabled, and none of my kills were captured. In desktop mode, I even got the prompt at the start of the match, but yea. As I said, no recordings.

So somehow Shadowplay stops being able to detect when I play PUBG, as PUBG's highlight settings are rigged for Shadowplay. Anyone with the same issue, or am I just a lone sailor?

Windows 8.1
GeForce GTX 780m
30 GB RAM

Okay so I installed Geforce Experience Beta (The experimental button) and tried. Nothing seemed to have changed, however, the highlights DO record when Shadowplay privacy settings has been set to record the desktop. So it works for me now, except you can see my other programs if I Alt+Tab..

Do you get the notifications/pop-ups etc, when it records them?

I get "Kill saved" and "Death saved" and the highlights marker next to my "Playback enabled" marker.. Just a tip if anyone does this. If you want your death recorded, and/or if the last kill you made was JUST before you died, you should wait with entering the lobby again. It will not ask you if you want to keep those recordings. They'll be stored in the temp folder (can be found in Shadowplay's highlights settings)

EDIT: But when it saves a video, it takes around 22 seconds for me, from the kill to the actual save. It's because it stores 22 playback seconds and keeps recording for 22 seconds. kill/Death recordings goes for 44 seconds. Maybe it's my program, not sure.

So do you have the overlay in GFE ON, and you get the option to turn the highlights on in PUBG, or something else? Even with the privacy settings changed I still cannot enable highlights in game all the time the overlay is on.

Shadowplay help, please! Everything seems to be in place, but it won't record.
Driver fully updated = 385.28
GeForce Experience (GFE) = v3.9.6.61 (Tried beta & regular)
In-Game Overlay within GFE Settings = On
Highlights within In-Game Overlay Settings = Yes
Instant Replay in Alt-Z = On
Steam and PUBG = Restarted numerous times
PUBG does have that extra little media icon in the details which allows me to adjust what's recorded (I've tried turning it off and back on)
PUBG did give me the pop when I first opened the game after updating asking if I wanted to allow Highlights to be captured, and I said Yes. The option is also turned on in the in-game settings.
PUBG v2.5.39
I was under the impression recording will now be automatic and seamless, with the options popping up at the end of the game allowing you to choose what's done with the recording. I don't get that. It won't even start recording when I click Alt-Z and Start Recording.
I've tried with Windows Game bar and Game DVR on and off. The damn thing won't record! Please help!
