AmaRecLite1.03

Streaming gameplay became a pretty popular thing nowadays, with various specialized services hosting these types of shows. Needless to say that a specialized application is required to capture gameplay. AmaRecLite is a suitable example in this regard, and aims to help you capture live gameplay with little to no impact on performance.

Can be used on the go

One major advantage here is portability, because it allows you to carry your own recording utility wherever you go on a thumb drive. Registry entries are not modified in the process, so you don’t have to worry about the health status of the target PC. However, the computer you use it on needs to have AMV3 Video Codec installed to be able to properly capture, and create the output video file.Most of the time the application can be found in the tray area, with the possibility to bring up the control panel. The small window lets you easily initiate a recording session, but the game needs to be active first. Additionally, a screenshot can be taken and automatically saved to a custom location.

Set hotkeys and recording options

On the other hand, recording can be initiated through hotkeys for a more comfortable approach. Paying a visit to the configuration panel is where you get to view, or change them. You can use any combination of special keys, and other numerical, symbol, or letters on your keyboard.You’re free to choose a different output folder, and specify the maximum file size just to make sure you don’t run out of space. As far as the output type is concerned, an AMV file is generated, with the possibility to manually tweak codec settings. Cropping can be applied by specifying target values, as well as resizing, if necessary.

A few last words

Taking everything into consideration, we can say that AmaRecLite is a neat application you can carry around to record your gaming sessions regardless of the computer you’re playing on. Configuration options are abundant, but intuitive, while the whole process is simplified through hotkey support.
