My videos look retarded and are in the wrong colors
I cant take a screen shot, because fireworks shows it as a dark purple square, but what can i do to make it look normal
Bump
First off, is it legal?

Also, bumping your own thread is annoying.
Videos recorded in Fraps have their own lossless codec, so a program attempting to open it, without knowing that codec exists will incorrectly render the video.
So try opening it in WMM or another video editor, see if it works there.
Yes its legal
I tried the virtualdub thing it suggested, but that failed
Going to get wmm now

Wait widows movie maker
I'm doing it now
[editline]06:49PM[/editline]
And does it matter if its legal, shouldn't it work anyway because someone must have gotten it legally in the first place

Update in 3 mins
Was rainbow in WMM still, but im saving as WMV now

Tring a lower quality: to fit 22mgb

Um, i don't think screencapping is breaking the law, most games have in-game screencapping systems now.
He meant Fraps
and the GTA is my friends that he leant me
Lower quality failed
If you're on Windows 7, make sure you download the latest one. My Fraps didn't work on Win7 x64 until I downloaded the latest (the one with the new skin).

Yes, they don't just copy-and-paste. They're cracked. If the crack is done badly, then the program might not work properly.

Also what's your specs. When i had a really crappy PC and recorded with FRAPS it fucked the video up too.

Please go brown nose a faceless organization elsewhere(Not saying I support DLing games/software but I'm tired of everyone going ape shit at the mere thought of warez)
Anyway OP
-Have you tried fraps with other games? The game might just not work with it
-Have you tried open the fraps .avi in WMP or MPC?
You could try getting CCCP if you dont have it already and enable the included fraps codec.
My PC is under a year old
It can run vista, but Dad got me to put on XP because of his imaginary compatibility issues.
Fraps works well with spider man 3
I'm playing all my old games lol

Even my 945 VGA can do better then that. ANd I was running GMod at 1280x1024 at max with no AA/AF
with 30FPS+ recording
Its mine
I have a job, I make money, i buy a computer
Dad made me get XP because that's what the school PCs have
He thinks there's compatibility issues with two different Microsoft OS's
Fraps works with Spider man 3, i like playing Spider man:spidey:
how can he make you put an OS on your PC that you worked to get the money to buy?
Reinstall fraps maybe(so you can be sure that you got the FPS1 codec installed, which is the one fraps uses)? What does VirtualDub say? You need to provide a bit more information, most guys can't read minds you know.
Because he put in the order to the guy, payed it out of his account, then when it arrived took the money out of mine
Sounds like fraps just doesn't like the game your trying it with, you could either change game settings or use a different recorder.
What other recorders are there
Preferably free, but I am willing to buy something
Vlc

Like VLC Media Player
I've always struggled with FRAPS, videos always come out lagging, or out of sync with the audio. I wish some company would just do it properly.

It's not as simple as it sounds, a lot of work goes into making a game recording software. It must be able to detect games (not too difficult, but it still has to be done), overlay graphics on the game, then take the output image from the GPU, buffer it into RAM (then eventually the HDD - some recorders may even go directly to the HDD, not that it's a good thing...), and output the same GPU image, only a short while later. Most of the lagging comes from the access time/write speed of your RAM (or HDD in some cases).
Because of this, if you are getting 30fps without a recorder, it will start lagging because it has to take each output image (frame) and store it in RAM temporarily, thus lowering your FPS (frames per second, how many output images a GPU can generate per second). But if you are getting 100+ FPS in a game, you won't lag because the downward dip in framerate wouldn't get in the < 30 FPS range

Doesn't matter how old it is, what's your specs.
