Hey guys,
I made my first video some days ago, an onboard lap of my mate squasseL on AS5 during the 24h of Aston Grand Prix in the MoE

What you think about the picture I made therefore and of course about the whole video and cut, I did it with a free version of Fraps.

Regards,Tiмo.Inferno

Use mpredit and attach the replay on the forum because that was crap.

what ^ they said

The pilot is fantastic.
But the low fps kills the video.
And the video would be wider , the ratio is pretty weird.

First of all thanks for the honest comments about the video.
Okay so the replay is the same v1rg0 posted after the 24h race

Meh dies war sehr schiesse!

hehe :d i am sorry i dont seem to be really good at this^^
Can anybody tell me then why the fps are so low, I switched everything off like the AA and normally my PC is very strong
I'm having about 200 fps Ingame and never had any freeze or something else.

I suck at making vids, but here are my thoughts
Maybe a different point of view would help So it looks like it's footage taken from a camera that's straped to the rollcage or something, with the driver view like it is now, it's too much like a frapsed replay. And as Vegas Las said, the ratio looks a bit weird and the fps could be better I don't have a clue on how to fix things like that so I can't help you with that, but there are many talented video makers around here that would be glad to help you out i guess

To end with a strong point, the driving in the video was really nice!

O ye, we love him for that. :lovies:

Guys... Thats slightly faster than the FPS I get in Single Player, driving solo.

Don't make me feel bad

On topic: Maybe try some new custom camera angles to make it more interesting. But good driving

@Timo, for recording games you need a good CPU, Graphiccard & a fast HD. If one of the component is slow, your fps will drop too much down.

and yea, weird ratio you choose here..

And get the fullversion of Fraps ^^

Or try CamStudio

you revived a dead thread to plug useless for LFS Movie making soft?

This is absolutely untrue!

On some machines Fraps limits the fps to 10-30 fps for whatsoever reason.

My machine is capable of recording videos in 1920x1200 50fps but not in 32 bits, unless I run LFS in windowed mode. Windowed mode + 32 bits is also 50 fps and more.

Also the HD speed doesn't matter when recording with fraps because even the uncompressed data is not large enough to get a normal HDD to get into troubles. I have a RAID-0 in my machine but I have no performance difference if I record to my non RAID-0 partition.

@ Timo, try recording in windowed mode and raise the FPS limit in fraps above 30FPS and you should be fine

ah yea... so its not a hardware problem? ok...

Which are your rig specs? I have similar issues as Timo with my rig, I do have good FPS in game but recording its a whole diff story.

Im running an AMD64 x2 6000 (stock 3.0ghz) + 2gb 800mhz ram + 8800gt vga, single sata II hd (7200rpm I guess), i hit +180 FPS while playing, but in Fraps at 1440x900 I barely reach 20 FPS

All my videos are recorded on 16bits.
32 bits gives me 4fps.

Quote from Vegas Las :

I wonder why I have this issue as well... I have absolutely no clue why, but I tried Shift + F4 (windowed mode) and it worked on every 32bit resolution then.

Window mode didn't do it for my system, instead tried the 16bit "fix" and it improved a lot, I'm getting 40 fps while recording now vs. 8 fps while in 32bit.

Anyway the screen looks fuc$#$ greenish, perhaps it can be fixed through any editing soft like Vegas or Premiere.
