  3. Please change the recording hotkey from 'F12' to 'F8,’ and then press the 'F8' key to start recording.

    If you use the 'F12' function, you will not get a high enough FPS value because the default recording hotkey of Roblox is 'F12.’
    To increase the FPS value, you may also play the game in windowed mode instead of full screen.
