Sparda Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 So, we have coverd video editing, and here is a nice desktop capturing program. I'v been looking for software that will capture 3D fullscreen programs (i.e. Games), CamStudio does do it, but it's very glitchy. From the games I'v tried it in offten the HUD would be flickering and it would offten skip frames.. not very good. I know of fraps and I know it sucks doggie testicals. Any surgestions?

gbjazzman Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Fraps isn't that bad. I just wish it would lag my machine so hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForsetiAvatar Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Svideo out sounds good, also, if you have another pc (w/ svideo inputs) you could capture to that. All progs I know of will make your game lag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingwray Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 Running Fraps with a dual-core CPU is fine, one core encodes the video and the other runs the game. It also depends on how high you want to settings and the capture, UT2003/04 can be capture very well on Fraps with a single core CPU but something like UT GOYTE can't. Its because original UT is basically all done by the CPU and not the GFX unlike the newer version. This makes capturing CPU intensive games more difficult.

Darren Kitchen Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 also keep in mind that if your going to capture a game to put in a video, running at 800x600 will look fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neod101 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 svideo out on video card to svideo in on mini-dv camera, press record button. ;) Would svideo do the sound aswell though? I've never really bothered to learn anything about this stuff... but I don't think svideo would do sound(seeing as it's done by the VIDEO card).

stingwray Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 S-video doesn't do sound, but the sound is easy enough to capture using the outputs from the computer playing the game going into the line-in on the computer doing the recording.

Or you could just tell it to record the line out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingwray Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Thats basically what I was saying, I suppose you could do it on one machine if that machine had a hardware encoder, you would put the SVideo and Line-out into the capture card. That would work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
