Counter-Strike recording troubleshooting
Counter-Strike recording causes lag or FPS drops
DOR uses low-overhead background capture, so the impact is minimal. If it still struggles, switch to 720p/30fps mode in settings.
Counter-Strike records as a black screen in fullscreen
DOR captures fullscreen, windowed and borderless modes alike, none of the fullscreen black-screen issues common with OBS.
Will a recorder get my Counter-Strike account banned?
DOR only captures the screen and never touches the game client, so it doesn't conflict with Counter-Strike's anti-cheat.
