Nightjay0044 1 Posted January 13, 2009 Hi all, it's been ages since I've posted on here. Long time no see. With the fraps program where you can capture, vidoes, photos. I can't get the video to record during while I play operation flashpoint. I want to record a video while playing the game..It says the video capture hot key is F9. I hit that while during game play and then hit it again when I want to stop. But nothing is saved in my folder on the desktop where I have is saved to. It says the numbers are suposed to turn red or something but it never does. The isssue seems to be it never even begins recording. How can I fix, this? Anybody have any experience with this? Thanks for the help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.g-c 6 Posted January 13, 2009 checked free disk space? FRAPS saves Video UNCOMPRESSED! I made lately a 30minutes capture of Online gaming and it used even on HALF my window-mode screen resolution (@30FPS) and only in stero-mix input, unbelievable 35GB! Which OS you use? Could be a "rights" issue that maybe the folder you want to save in, Fraps is not allowed to write in, etc... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightjay0044 1 Posted January 13, 2009 Hi I have windows XP pro and 6.30GB free space in my C:Drive hard drive space. I'm not sure about the uncompressed space unless it's the same on the hard drive. But can you tell me what to do to get it to work? I acutally have the video saved file location in C:Fraps place. Actually it was because of my F LOCK button on my keyboard, it had to be on it was off. ha, simple thing like that. But now it works but now it's way......and i emphasize way too slow, I don't even think it's worth recording. Unless you know of a way to make it faster.. Thanks.

Deadfast 43 Posted January 17, 2009 The more frames per second your recorded video has the bigger performance impact while recording. Also set the resolution to Half-size in Frap's options. BTW: F-keys are bitches, I had it on my old keyboard. Couldn't even install windows because F8 to agree wasn't working. So much headache for such a small button Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
