video/sound capture

[Rick]

I want to make a video showing what I'm doing. It also would need sound. Is there any free software that could capture a window like the Leadwerks Editor?

Fraps. http://www.fraps.com/

[Rick]

That didn't work out well. It killed the fps to about 9. Plus I only get 30 seconds.

thats fraps from what i understand... every video i have ever seen posted the poster comments to not pay attention to the fps due to fraps

I use the fraps demo but certainly don't take any notice of the FPS it gives, I just turn that function off.

I can't get the Debut Video Capture Software video I do uploaded correctly to youtube. The format must be different but I can't find where to change the video format to something youtube likes.

You have the record as option and then encoder options at the bottom.

[Rick]

Yeah but the 2 formats that are in there are just MPEG2. This is what I used and youtube didn't seem to like it. The other one is MPEG1. Youtube says

H.264 or MPEG-2 preferred. I'm guessing MPEG2 and MPEG-2 are different because the MPEG2 didn't work.

2? I have lots of options.. I took it that the software just picked up on installed codecs:

 

[Rick]

I have all those. The 2 I meant was when I select mpg, then I have 2 more options under that. Do you know what other formats youtube supports? I thought it was just mpeg-2, mpeg-4.

I always use avi .. maybe this link will be of help

[Rick]

I'll try that. Thanks!

If you give FRAPs a higher priority than your System Idle Process you get higher FPS. I run FRAPs on the 2nd two cores of my CPU only so it doesn't affect Leadwerks running in the first and Newton running in the 1st and possibly? second.
