What FBX is

FBX is Windows software for recording and streaming gameplay, with tools for capturing clips, continuous footage, screenshots, and desktop activity. During play, a hotkey can save a short video, while DVR-style recording can keep capturing continuously. FBX also records the Windows desktop, including web content and older games, and takes screenshots of gameplay moments. For live streams, it adjusts to available bandwidth and can save streams to a hard disk. It supports Twitch and Facebook Gaming streaming, and recorded movies can be uploaded directly to YouTube through the YouTube API.

The built-in editor can add GIFs, animated stickers, sound effects, captions, slow motion, speed changes, freeze frames, and clips. Recordings can be exported as MP4 files or GIFs. FBX uses NVIDIA, AMD, or Intel hardware acceleration and is designed to work on older, low-spec PCs. It can record game or PC audio alongside microphone audio; webcam recording needs to be enabled separately. FBX supports Windows 7, 8, and 10 in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. The Free plan includes an FBX video watermark. Pro plans remove it, and the premium account can be used on one PC, with a move to another PC allowed once every 30 days.

Who it suits

FBX suits Windows players who want gameplay recording, instant clips, screenshots, and live streaming in one tool. Its hardware acceleration and support for older, low-spec PCs may also suit users with less powerful computers.
