I got the email with the change and cut and pasted it into your lua file. Made a REPLAYS folder and pointed the Record stream at Recordings. These are both within my Primary folder D:/Yellow Hat Video/Recordings/Replays

It's crashed OBS when I capture clip via Replay Buffer

Thanks again
Bruce

Is there a scripting reason that the game capture must be named "Game Capture"? Sometimes I play games that don't work well with Game Capture like CS:GO, and being unable to have two sources named "Game Capture" means that I cannot have CS:GO recorded with Display Capture and allow it to place it in a folder as well. If there's any way around this, or a reason it can't be done, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks for the script, works well in any other game other than those that reject OBS hooks.

This is because I access a Game Capture source for the script. I'm probably going to make an OBS plugin instead that should be better than lua

I came up with a solution on the GitHub repo. Unfortunately, it uses an additional executable that steals application focus. So, it is only somewhat automated. You have to toggle Replay Buffer off/on whenever you switch games during an OBS session. With this version, the source names on OBS do not matter because the script does not look at them.

If I were to fetch the current running game every time you save a replay, it would tab you out of a game and that would be annoying

i'm not sure, it works for a couple of people. this is also the first c project of mine so the library could totally have some issues haha

i set the expected location of detect_game.dll to the folder where the lua script is located. lua should print something different if the dll was built wrong

I really like and need the functionality of this script. Can I trouble you to fix this script?
I also tested that when replaying a buffered Battlefield 2042, the file is stored in the obs64 folder.

Thank you for the script. Decided to use the first version, since that is exactly what I want.
But for easier conversion later I recommend changing move(path, folder) to move(path, string.gsub(folder, "%s+", "_")) (changes whitespaces in the folder name to underscores).
