I downloaded version 2.5.1 ...Is that what you're using, and are you using the paid version?

If so, can you get it to me before Sunday?

If not... Would anybody like to make some donations to the site for the cause? (I'd get it myself, but I've got money issues as is)

I already have a webcam, but I'm not sure about that.

I'd prefer to find some software that would record the game and save it to a movie format (wmf, avi, etc.) and I could then upload it to the server for you guys.

Do you have a TV tuner card? If you do you when you hook your PS2 or x-box directly to your comp and then record it from there. If your taking screen shots i figured you are doing
this.


I have some computer geek friends that are looking into this for me to see all the ways you can do this. I'll let ya know

[vicgirl]

Hell Yeah.

Hell Fucking Yeah.

Everyone could witness the Packer Domination

We should all look around to see if we can get a better program with better compression then this. Whats its compression?

[8IhGpvH0]

fraps, Ill see if I still have the program on disk and will send it too you

[Orefsmisits]

the question would be do you watch the games as your having them played? cause you can cut alot of junk out if you do... you can basically do a (RED ZONE) type recap

[errolespopume]

not really... we do 20 minute videos and there huge... tons of UPLOAD need huge amounts of bandwith transfer

Damn... Cuz we're looking at videos around an hour to 1.5 hours.

Is compression rate frames per second?

[johnbeller]

A 30 second clip was 200 MB

Did you see this?

Why is the AVI movie generated by Fraps so big? How can I reduce the size?

The filesize is big because there isn’t enough time to encode the movie while the game is running. The movie frames are slightly compressed, but still require a large amount of disk space due to the high resolutions. Once you have finished capturing you should convert the saved AVI into one of the popular compressed movie formats such as mpeg or divx. Recommended programs for doing this are tmpgenc (Tsunami Mpeg Encoder), and VirtualDub.

Using VirtualDub is quite easy. To create a compressed version of the AVI follow these steps:
Start VirtualDub
Select File->Open and choose the AVI in the Fraps directory you wish to compress.
Select Video->Compression and choose the codec you wish to compress with (usually divx)
Select File->Save As AVI and specify a filename for the new AVI.
If you have Windows XP you can also use Windows Movie Maker to compress the video files. If you use Windows Movie Maker it's recommended that you keep your Fraps video files at 800x600 or under.

I have the full version... but I cant find it at the moment... IF you wanted to do a 50/50 thing and we could both use it... Im for it...

Does the full version compress the videos better? No way I'm uploading videos at the compression rate I just saw.

[Dertrioz]

if it works, how much does it cost?

[Dertrioz]

I found it online. I'm gonna give it a try.

Now that would be very damn cool!
