Can't record with Lawena

So, currently, I cannot record with Lawena at all - when I press the recording button, the demo starts playing faster, and the following text appears in the console:

Started recording movie, frames will record after console is cleared...
StartMovie: invalid path: E:\records/a1_

I must assure you the path is pretty valid, I tried changing it twice, nothing worked. When I "stop" recording, all it prints on the console is this:

No movie started.

I tried opening Lawena with and without HLAE, disabled my_custom_stuff, none of those worked. I've never had this problem before.
I tried using startmovie command, typing "startmovie a1" in the console lawena starts recording, but no files are being saved in the recordings folder, at all. Not during the process, not after it. I tried completing the record both by pressing the recording button or using the endmovie command, neither of them made any difference, and no frames were saved whatsoever.

Also, I will put this here, though my main concern is Lawena, I also have problems with ShadowPlay - recording at 20-30 fps even though I've set it on 60. I tried changing the bit rate, the quality - 1440p 1080p 720p - none of those helped, even after updating the GeForce driver. I had this problem before but it fixed by itself somehow.

Any help would be appreciated!

Have you tried using a different output folder? Also afaik if you don't specify a path for startmovie, it will default to your TF folder.

Spuyou have to record the tga's to your tf folder i believe

while i have never heard of your specific error, your TGA folder does need to be inside your TF folder to record. whether or not this fixes it I don’t know. Feel free to add me and we can troubleshoot it if you need more help.

As I already stated, I never had this problem before. The TGA folder doesn't need to be in my TF folder, at least it never did. It used to work perfectly fine before. I tried changing the Movie folder 3 times, it didn't work.

pyxelize, can you check if you have blocked me for any reason? It shows an error when I try to add you.

The problem with Lawena has been fixed thanks to pyxelize! The problem was not updating it to 4.1.8 that was required to record after the Inferno Update. Thank you again! ShadowPlay problem still remains though
