HI, looking to try speedruning on a ps5. My computer is a bit old to try to record via screen capture. The thing is the ps5 has a feature to record games the downside is that its only up to 59mins each time. So would capturing multiple 59 min sequences then attach them on an editor count for speedruning? If not, has anyone tried streaming to youtube and then saving the vod and using that for speedrunning, would that count?
thanks
Most speedruns are under an hour, depends on what you'd want to run. For any ps5 games you'd play over an hour, I'd ask the specific community for that game for what to do. The youtube vod thing would definitely count though assuming that it works. You can also always try recording with a phone, it works for any console.
If the run is under an hour there should be no problem, although you might need to edit in a timer in the corner. Although if it is over an hour, splicing is generally not allowed in most runs because it can mean that you cheated somehow. The alternative would be to record it with your phone somehow or invest in a capture card (they can be as cheap as like 8 bucks). Although, if you dont want to do this, you could dm your moderator(s) or ask in the games forum to see if splicing would be allowed
