Play first. Save after.
Encore keeps a rolling replay buffer in the background. Hit your save hotkey when something happens. The lead-up comes with it.

A recorder that stays out of the way.
The Rust recorder runs on its own. The desktop interface opens when you want to browse or edit, with hardware H.264 encoding handling capture.

A few things to know.
How does saving a replay work?
Encore records into a rolling buffer. Use the save hotkey, Alt+S by default, to keep the recent gameplay. Choose a buffer from 15 to 120 seconds in the desktop app.
Can I edit game, chat, and microphone audio separately?
Yes. Encore captures three separate audio tracks, with per-track waveforms, volume controls, and mute toggles in the clip editor.
What can I export?
Trim a clip, export a 9:16 vertical video, or combine several clips into a montage. You can also copy clip files straight to the Windows clipboard.
Is Encore open source?
Yes. Encore is licensed under GPL-3.0. You can inspect the code, report issues, and find setup instructions on GitHub.
