So just as I was about to splurge $100 on a capture card, just for the sake of recording Steam Deck footage, I discovered a plugin for Crankshaft: Recapture. This plugin allows you to record on the Deck – in much the same way as capture software like OBS – without the need for an external capture card. I tried it briefly with MultiVersus. At native 800p resolution and high settings, the framerate didn’t dip at all while recording.
