any Dxtory user here?

i can't get x264 working with dxtory(codec just won't show on list) would you help ?
you need to download the codec first, or just download K-Lite codec pack

i once use x264 directly on Dxtory, no Output whatsoever, so i use Xvid on Dxtory and encode it to MP4 with x264 on Handbrake

Why use x264 with some flimsy GUI when x264 accepts Fraps video as input as is?
i'm not a command prompt user, GUI makes thing easier

You need x264fw for that.

Also, scripting is fun when you get used to it. As a matter fact, I only need to run a batch file without having to tinker with anything for encoding using x264.

suit yourself, at least both ways produce an Output that we want, this place is not for arguing which way are the best.

What kind of hard drive are you writing to? Sounds like there is some lag when it creates a new file.

i know fraps can only make videos of 4GB or something, maybe that has something to do with it.

i think use xsplite is much better :o, first fraps lags / second fraps takes loads space of your hardrive, third converting file format from sony vegas takes time, xsplite live record and upload utube is much faster o_o also xsplite supports camera which can allow u to show hands XD

But recording high quality (as in lossless to the human eye) with xsplit while retaining filesizes is pretty much impossible due to its realtime nature.
That and if you have a decent computer (which you should if you are to record gameplay of anything), fraps does not lag nor is hard drive space an issue (I have ~120GB of virtually useless stuff on my fraps folder that I just haven't bothered to delete).

Oh and about Sony Vegas, don't bother pirating "professional" video editing software for the sole purpose of compressing video, Vegas is not the best tool for it. Use x264 or one of its many GUI frontends such as RipBot264, HDConvertToX or Simple x264 Launcher.

I'd personally only use xsplit for streaming (which it is aimed for and is virtually perfect at).

Buy torrent the full version and you will be able to record longer than 30seconds.

You can also use Xsplit to do a local recording. It is easy on the hard drive space as well, and records in youtube friendly mp4 format.

But you're sacrificing quality or not getting the best compression possible since with xsplit you encode it in realtime due to the program being meant for streaming.

While it's true, it's much easier on your system. Some people can't fraps @30 fps believe it or not. :/

This works well if you want small file sizes to work with. http://www.zdsoft.com/screen-recorder/

It also take 10 seconds and a google search to crack :S

Those people should invest in a decent hard drive.

Or alternatively stop using laptops to record gameplay videos.

This thread is really useful and I'd rather use BBFlashBack Pro 3 Recorder than use Fraps.

my problem is that it suddenly stops recording I see the numbers go from Red to Yellow again without me stopping the recording.

Is it suppose to stop that way? I can't even record a full song in 1 video.

If you're using the free version of Fraps, it'll only allow you to record videos up to 30sec.

There's a built in recorder in MSI Afterburner that records pretty well on low-end computers.
People might want to take a look at it.

Thought I prefer to use Lagarith Codec and record with Dxtory instead of using FRAPS.

I mean fraps does cost money so.

Uncle Fluff would like to have a word with you.

I wonder, would it be okay if I did some updating on this and made a wiki page of that too.

actually i record my movie with OBS

i've followed the tutorial for livestreaming osu! and set "File output only" instead of "live stream"

SPOILER

It's free, and intuitive

My file weight is like 80 Mb / 1 min
(when recording in 1080p, you should set "Max Bitrate (kb/s)" to 8 000 or more to keep a good quality)


Sorry for my bad english ><

you should just use obs to make simple recordings of osu!
