Symptoms

Game works fine for the most part, the only issue is when making a clip, the game crashes to desktop. I believe it's related to the media foundation h264 encoder but I can't say for sure.

Reproduction

  1. View a replay for a run, by either playing the game once or viewing a previous one
  2. Click "MAKE CLIP", optionally select a region
  3. Click Upload

Research direction

Start by reviewing the attached steam-1743850.log and reproducing the crash through the listed replay, MAKE CLIP, and Upload steps. Investigate the suspected Media Foundation H.264 encoder path; done means uploading a clip no longer crashes the game.
