There are some very talented video people around. That was extremely nice. I like the one with the It's a Wonderful World song too a lot. Although I can't seem to find it again?

I found it 🙂

Watching it and I am wondering, it is really fascinating how technology has been advanced to create something like this 😄 

I tried using Shadowplay but too many stutters which I do not have in MSFS/P3D but show up in the video.  Can someone recommend a most efficient video recording app?  

Fraps has a video recorder as well as Jpg capture.

The stutters are the streaming/recording process running out of resources.

I use OBS with NVEC which is normally even more prone to stutter than shadowplay,  but I dedicated some threads to it on my CPU and it seemed to work OK after that.

Thanks I will try to keep Shadowplay off any LPs dedicated to the sim(s) and see.

I use OBS to record my flights, in the CPU encoding mode.  But I have plenty of cores to spare.  It usually takes ~17% CPU to record 1440p.

The video is nice....but many of those places look almost as nice in a web browser looking at Bing or *gasp* Google Earth. Maybe they have a secret hot air balloon mod they are using to make the videos?  It's a flight simulator not a scenery simulator after all.

I must admit I use MSFS 90% for the scenery.   I actually completely quit flight sims entirely for years because the "in cockpit procedure simulation while flying on autopilot thing"  got mind numbingly boring eventually,  Some people like that and respect and Kudos to them but it never ticked any boxes for me.  The scenic aspects of MSFS is why I came back.

So a video showing potentially interesting places to fly scenery wise is a bonus for me personally  (not everywhere you think will look good in game actually is, Victoria Falls for example is a huge disappointment)

I don't begrudge people enjoying the scenery, but I find it bizarre to make an entire video like that and not show the wing of a Cub, or the cockpit of the Pitts, or something, some aircraft part to indicate that it's from Flight Simulator and aviation is involved.

Well true, which is why I personally use the Aerolite 103 for scenery videos.  Small unobtrusive but well textured cockpit that does not block the scenery.

Though in the end it is a creative choice that is up to the maker of the video.
