I come to TL wanting to know if anybody knows a good, free program to use to record FPVODs. A friend and I are looking to record our games, so we can each see what our opponent is doing at certain parts. Just for fun. Any suggestions?

Going to look up Guncam now. Thanks. Anymore guys?

Fraps isn't my thing. The big files just aren't cool. Camstudio doesn't work for me. I get in game, press the record and the colours end up fucked. Camtasia won't record audio. Tells me I don't have a microphone or some shit.

The color may be your fault. When you are recording you set the screen size at 0,0 with a 640x480 capture box.

When you record you want to start it after the game starts else the colors get fed up it's a commonly known problem with no real way around it.

Can't find where to set the screen size. Got the capture box though.

EDIT: Can't get Camstudio to work. Going to try Guncam now.

EDITx2: Guncam works well. Thanks!

Editx3: Jesus...so many edits. Anyways...Any programs that can compress .avi files, but not have them lose quality? Also...anyone know how to get a video over ten minutes up on youtube?
