Valve Working on Clip Recording and Sharing in Steam Client - Steam Deck HQ

Valve could be working on being able to record clips directly in Steam/on the Steam Deck if this rumor is to be believed.

According to some data mining from the guy who runs SteamDB:

Steam is still working on clip recording. It supports background recording, includes timeline markers in supported games for various events.

Clips can be shared similar to screenshots, via the Steam community.

We don’t actually have any proof that this will be coming to Steam Deck yet, but I’m pretty optimistic that it would.

I recommend clicking through to the article, it has several screenshots showing how the feature will look.

Hopefully they can get game broadcasting working on Linux, too.

It’s so dumb how game streaming and remote play together, work, but if someone just wants to watch, no can do.

Fortunately OBS has native game capture plugins available on Linux now (not officially, you may have to install it from Github or the AUR). So you could use that to stream to YouTube or twitch for the time being.

Ok, now this would actually be cool. I could finally ditch Nvidia’s shitty bloated program

Yeah I absolutely hate that it doesn’t detect certain games and sometimes it just doesn’t realize I’m playing a game until I hit clip and see it capture the last 0 seconds.

On that note, that highlight feature that auto-captures kills and whatnot (on some games) is actually really awesome! Hopefully steam ends up having something similar
