    Newest Nvidia driver 531.68 finally has it in "Fixed issues". At least according to their changelog "Shadowplay incorrectly getting engaged within EA Play application [4049414]".

    I've already set it with Nvidia Profile Inspector but perhaps someone may check, who hasn't yet.

Disabling hardware acceleration would probably do the trick, so tell me how to do it.
I didn't have this problem with Origin, but surprise surprise, the EA App, onto which I DID NOT want to downgrade, but were forced to, has it.

I want Shadowplay to record Battlefield 4/1/V/2042. Or whatever I'm playing, and NOT the EA App window.

Disabling hardware accel would probably solve this, but of course you made electron commands not work. (--disable-gpu --force-cpu-draw)

I'm so fed up with this * app you're shoving down our throats that I made a video about it.

If you won't let people stay on Origin, at least START WORKING ON FIXING THE EA APP.

    i agree with you and have the same problem, you can work around this by deactivating and activating shadowplay over a hotkey when you are inside the game(at least on my system) but that kinda misses the point of shadowplay... I always forget it on apex and miss a lot of good clips just because this programm has been made so incompetently, just like i cant set ANY of my games to english because the run commans also all dont work, unsuprisingly...

    Seriously, why do i feel like this is the alpha of the alpha.
    Another problem i have with this poorly made excuse of a program is, that it doesnt close when you close it, it only minimizes, and when i right click it in the info tab in the task bar, the close option comes out BEHIND the info window, making it even harder to close, so i have to bring up task manager every single time

      Hey @StreetcIeaner,

      That could be correct. Please also see the previous comment in this thread.
