2009-01-31
yes today I'm going to show you the sings that I use to get the best recording quality out of the fraps screen recorder first of all under the general tab there is not much to see here it's just details about the software itself under the FPS tab you set your own hotkey you choose what corner you want the FPS be shown in again a whole lot down here unless you want to save certain benchmark stats but in under movies set mine sometimes 50 sometimes a 30 depending what game I'm playing if I'm playing a less intensive game go ahead and set it to 50 frames per second if not if it's more rough it's intensive and go ahead and set it at 30 frames per second and make sure you know what your video captured hotkeys so that when you're in the game all you have to do is press that one button for audio I chose it to record sound and detect the best sound input which will not necessarily be from your speakers but it might be your system sound which you can pick up also so if you have music and game sounds like a shooting game there might be gunfire you can hear that much more clearly if you detect best sound input you can choose to use Windows input but that might not always work so detect best sound input is what I use mister direct stream and stereo because that's just the type of sound that I have on a system standard sound and this is just a screen capture if you want to take just one image just one frame of the game you're playing then I use Evan as in movies I would start and end with f10 and screenshots will start just one screen shot with f11 and old ticket JPEG image or bitmap image it really doesn't matter it could be a PNG image or a TK image I'll use BMP for now and that is that is how you use perhaps now why you're actually in a game I have a video 1080p video that I uploaded it wasn't the best quality ever but I do have a 1080p video up on my site so go ahead and subscribe and click on my name and you'll see the fraps 1080p test under my videos that is an example I when I did that video I only had the half version or the were limited to 30 seconds of screen recording now I have a full version of fraps so I am allowed to I have unlimited screen recording time use it to record basically whatever game I might be playing if I'm playing a game I'll open up fraps and I might do some benchmarking I might just look at see the FPS and getting first per second and I'm getting while playing and maybe I want to record a video for keepsake so that's that is what fraps is liaison gemin I hope you enjoyed this video tutorial try to upload this one in HD so go ahead on the bottom right hand corner and click on watching this in HD Wow and yeah and Jeff wraps oh you know I'll show you where to get fraps just in case you don't know already this is Firefox internet browser go ahead and type in fresh and the first link was fraps comm is really simple scroll down it'll tell you all about different games you can record using fraps and click on the Downloads tab for downloading the actual application these are screenshots obviously from preps which you saw in my earlier part of the video it's only 956 kilobytes it's really small but then again this is just the free fraps version pictures the fastest with an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card and sure enough I have an NVIDIA GeForce graphics card where to go where to go maybe it's not gonna air we go nvidia geforce 9200 M is my graphics card 512 Meg's of RAM so there you go downloaded here and if you want to buy be full or you want to be crazy like me and torrent it then there's where you buy it you can use Visa MasterCard PayPal not a big deal but you can still record up to 30 seconds of video and take screenshots with the free version of frappe so and you can get the FPS benchmark etc so that is fraps for you and hope you like this subscribe and more HP tutorials to come thanks peace
