Steam built-in game recorder
Since Microsoft has added a lots of new feature in their latest update on Xbox beta app, and they have Game DVR since app showed on Windows 10, i'd like to see same thing on Steam. Since Steam already has screenshots feature, why not to add record game feature but available for all PCs with low impact on CPU ofc. Yeah, there's other softwares like Dxtory, OBS, Fraps, Action! and so on but i'd like to see this feature in the future. What do you guys think ?

Although there are many did not understand, but some say that there is a shortage of tips out, or the player is conducive to the shortage of places, thank you for your advice! Let me have inspiration, is no company to find me! Or I'll sort out your ideas.

I liked that you could on xbox one record the last few minutes of gameplay, alongside having a normal recording option. The stuff worth recording always happen when not recording. Id like to have something similar on steam.

Microsoft has for their Windows10 games from Store built-in game recorder. This is a must-have for steam gamers.

I do think it's mighty strange that they don't have this feature. They've got all the pieces, for example they can already capture and encode captured game video, as they're already doing that for the in-home streaming and broadcasting features.

Adding video capture too would be dumping the same outputted video to a file, uploading that file to Steam Cloud, and playing it using the same video player they already use for streaming videos on Steam.

They've already got the pieces, they just need to join them up.

I've found it odd too, because since Microsoft has this feature (Win+G opens game bar), Steam should do this too. Bad thing about XBox Game DVR is that it supports only high-end hardware, so Steam should grab this opportunity to allow record with very low CPU impact and support all PCs as well, especially low end because my laptop is one of them until i buy myself a gaming rig.

Steam should use opportunity since Game DVR supports only high end hardware.
