How to make Nvidia ShadowPlay work on FFXIV ARR?

[permbanned]

It doesn't have to detect the game. Just open shadowplay and turn it on then play XIV in fullscreen. You'll see the little shadowplay icon in the corner of the screen (assuming you have it turned on) to let you know it's working.

ShadowPlay leverages the H.264 hardware encoder found on GeForce GTX 600 and 700 Series graphics cards to record 1920x1080, 60 frames per second. All DirectX 9 and newer games are supported. In comparison to software solutions that hammer the CPU, ShadowPlay’s hardware solution has an approximate 5-10% performance impact when using the max-quality 50 mbps recording mode, and by saving to automatically-encoded and compressed H.264 .mp4 files, ShadowPlay avoids the disk-thrashing, humongous, multi-gigabyte files associated with other gameplay recording applications.

And by the way, it's only 10 minutes of shadow recording with windows 7
Still neat but would be nice to get 20.

was anyone able to get it fixed? I can't get it to work in my FFXIV either. my other games have no problem but in FF the status icon never shows up. I've tried fullscreen, window etc. too
