Recording Software

[Pluto100]

Hello! Does anybody know any free & easy-to-use game recording software?

Thanks!

Xfire isn\'t too bad...

[Pluto100]

Thanks! I\'ll look it up.

I have used Audacity for ages, and it\'s got just about everything I need for sound recording, and even works for ripping records (through a mic input).

[Pluto100]

Thank you! I\'ll go look it up! Does it record gaming sessions?

[Ydoow]

Audacity does not, it\'s only an audio software thingy.

I was assuming you meant screen recording, but I guess you never specified.

Xfire is an online/gaming chat program, but also supports recording/screencapture

Fraps works for me, although I don\'t make any serious blockbusters. :

I read that as recording, as in audio...

Whoops.

[Pluto100]

It\'s my fault for not saying gaming :S. I can\'t use fraps. It costs money :S.

I have hyper cam 3 (portable). Had to play around with it to get a recording mode that didn\'t turn my quality to garbage while generating enourmous files, but I finally settled on WMVideo9 Encoder DMO outputting to WMV at 15 frames per second with a keyframe every 5. It\'s free, but it will put a little banner in the top left corner that just says unregistered hypercam 3.

I use Bandicam, as the free version you can record 10 minutes. In the free version of Fraps you can only record 30 seconds. And also, Bandicam has less lag than Fraps. Oh and did I mention smaller video files?

[Pluto100]

Hmm. I\'ll have to try that! Thank you!

[Razordraac]

Hmm. I\'ll have to try that! Thank you!

No problem...

I just use bandicam and record bits and segments like record, Stop, wait until something on screen is about to happen, then turn it back on.

It\'s a good program...
