Does running fraps in the background have much of a performance hit? Can you turn it off and on in game with hotkeys?
I also assume it can record video and sound? What is the maximum video length you can record?
What do you lot use to edit you videos?

1. It depends on your computer specs. Personally, my game runs at 60/70 fps usually, and it drops to 35/40 when Im recording (full resolution 1440/900, 50 fps). If you have a gaming machine, shouldn't really be a problem ;)
2. Not really sure but on NTFS disks, the maximum filesize is 3,9 GBS. (which is around 3-4 minutes of recording for me, based on the resolution and the framerate) If you record longer than that, FRAPS should create another file and keep recording (not sure about that though). So if you record during 10 minutes, you may have 2 or 3, or even more different files you'll have to paste to each other in an editing software, which brings me to the last question;
3. Basic and easy softwares to use are windows movie maker (very limited in editing tools, compression), virtual dub (pretty good to compress file and not that hard to understand [its mostly a compressing tool, not editing]). Evoluted softwares are Sony Vegas or Adobe Premiere (I use vegas personally)
-
the limit of NTFS is much higher than 4GB but I think fraps doesn't want to make files bigger than 4GB in case you're recording to a HDD which uses the FAT32 file system
-
A little thing noone mentioned.Fraps itself running in background does have a performance hit.High systems might not be able to detect it but i have some drop.

^ there is a part in the middle where I had to do a major fade because fraps didn't start recording a new file 'til after a few seconds.
-
im fucking sstoned lol, i wouldnt make a new topic because i think this fits
-
Fraps for me is fucked up,i have a gaming pc and it still lags,with Xfire recording with even sound i get no lag in any game.Fraps lags everytime,even on Sa-mp
-
So xfire can record also?
-
Yes it can. Fast recording and uploading.
Btw Riot can you say your xfire.
-
How is the quality in Xfire ? Can you get good resoultion and compression ? Does it capture good enough for a re-render with editing ?
-
See this video. I used medium res in game like 1024x780 or lower, can't remember. ;D
