RetroArch

RetroArch records in lossless RGB x264 with FLAC audio and can take up a lot of disc space/processing power for high resolution video. Recording options aren't currently implemented in RGUI, so you either need to use Phoenix or CLI. It's recommended you record to MKV format. For command line:

retroarch.exe -r "C:\Path_to_Recordings\recording_name.mkv" --menu
Example of default settings

By default RA will record at native resolution, to record at a higher resolution, use --size then specify WIDTHxHEIGHT. You can also set --recordconfig to use a specific config file when recording. No shaders will show up in recordings, only filters.
