Okay, so I'm giving josepezdj a board warning for even hinting that pirating software is a good idea. And I'm warning everyone from here on out that anyone who openly discusses pirating software is going to get a ban. I'm not stupid, I know how to read between the lines when you say shit like "acquire", and putting a dozen winky faces into your post isn't going to make me think it's cute.

Pay up or shut up.

I apologize for having hinted that piracy could be better than purchasing Fraps. I purchase my games indeed and I have got many legal software... About Fraps, it is an awesome software... so I totally recommend it :thumbup:

I've been using a free version of fraps tool but it records only a 30 seconds video :angrysquare: and images in bmp.
I guess buying the program is worth it cause I, like many users, would like to share my play-through on YouTube.

I've been using xfire to record my gameplay. There's no limitation on how long it will record. I have an nVidia GForce 420 with 1 GIG of RAM so it might break a sweat sometimes while recording. Fraps is very light weight as well as giving you a clean lossless recording, but for something free, I would give xfire a try. If it too extraneous to your hardware or resources, you can always un-install it. Even though the recording time is unlimited, be aware that it records in AVI. I have mine dummied down as much as can be, and after about 1 minute of recording, it almost 1 gig in file size. This means your recording could end up being a metric f**k-ton in file size.

So after I record gameplay, I use FormatFactory to convert AVI to Mp4 format. This makes it smaller file size, which is good considering I only have a disgusting .5 Mbps up speed. This makes uploading a video less painful. My video editing software doesn't read AVI, so this is another reason to use FormatFactory. FF seems to do the job just fine, and, it doesn't sneak in crap-ware into your web browser.

Cheers.

I use VitualDub to capture screen video and convert video files with video converter:

I haven't done this in a long while, so do some research. Older software will still work, but might not be optimised to take advantage of more modern technology like multiple cores, etc.

I record a demo, then replay it with Razer Game Booster's screencast feature on. But the audio gets horribly laggy...is there a way to prevent this?

Falsi sumus crusto!
