For sound recording, make sure there's some recording volume, for me it was turned to zero by default. but do not turn the knob to max cause it very possibly causes distortion in sound and that sounds horrible. also stereo mix can be found on your sound driver manager. For me it's realtek and it really likes to make this distortion sound if recording is too high. Also i have to have sound settings on fraps on "Use Windows input".

What he said, I get about the same sizeRemco32 wrote: 3u4n3a
IIRC, I mostly ended up w/ mpegs less than 400MB or so.
I'm pretty sure you can get that filesize lower with a different container, but I have a hi-speed internet connection, so I don't bother.
sometimes around 100mb if I'm lucky, it depends on the beat map and stuff.
Very nice tutorial. I was wondering how to do this, and then stumbled upon this, so thanks!
Quick question: Let's say your computer can't handle both a full-size recording and 60 fps through FRAPS without stuttering and lag in the video.
Which option would sacrifice less quality: half-size with 60 fps or full-size w/ 30 fps?
Thanks.

Sorry, but its because xfire always desyncs, or most of the time anyway.JInxyjem wrote: 59226l
Because I don't have Fraps nor Sony Vegas, I made a video in Xfire. However, the music desyncs after a minute of recording. Why? Are my settings wrong somewhere?
I'm recording with 30fps, Half Size of 1280x960 = 640x480.
Audio: Vista Audio, Vista Audio Mixer.
Run fraps, record the video.
VirtualDubMod
Open it, drag the video into the VirtualDubMod window.
Go to Video -> Compression -> Choose "XVid MPEG4 Codec", then press 'Configure', set Target Quantizer to about '6.81', press OK.
Go to File -> Save As..., name your video yourvideoname.avi and save it.
Also Codecs

x264 with crf around 20, 1280x720, 30fps. Rather good quality/size ratio imo.
XviD lacks some of the more advanced macroblocking features that really help with compressing stuff like osu videos.
Also protip if you want to cheat youtube with 1080p videos:
Record it at 1600x900, resize to 1920x1080, nobody will see the difference when its ed.
Then again the quality difference between 720p and 1080p is pretty minimal on youtube so why bother.

umm . im stuck at the part where you open osu! with fraps running . you said there should be a yellow number at the top right corner of osu! which you had already provided a screenshot . but for some reason my osu doesnt have a yellow or red number at the top right corner . and im using the free version which doesnt require money . i basically ed it . can anyone fix my problem for me pls ._.
You can choose whether or not the numbers appear on the corner in FRAPS. Go to FPS, and in the box that says 'Overlay Corner' you can choose which corner to have it in, or turn it off. That could be off. The thirty seconds thing is because you have the trial version. Either find/steal a registration key, or pirate it, hah.NeetOtakuHikikomori wrote: 2m2a5w
can anyone help me ? my fraps can show the fps at the top right corner of osu! now . but it can only record 30seconds and lagging when i review the 30second replay .
Also, I'm not sure if it has been mentioned in this thread, but Sony Vegas can NOT read audio from .avi files. Or well... at least 8 can't. Not so sure about nine.
It can, it just depends on the audio codec used, Anyway, Virtualdub FTW~ And Sony Vegas for professional editingOzzyOzrock wrote: 2ij5p

At least from the fraps raw videos (where audio is 1536kbps LM)
As a more compressed format I either use Vorbis (aoTuV b5d) or MPEG-4 AAC (Nero)

same thing here.. only 30 sec vids.. =.=
what version can record more than 30 secs?
Also, if someone is feeling randy and willing to explore the exciting world of commandline apps:
x264 now has some built in audio encoding features!
Patched builds by JEEB:
http://x264.fushizen.eu/
Only needs the .exe and Quicktime to be installed (cause aac > others)
Create a .bat file to the directory where the x264.exe is with this line:
x264 --preset veryslow --level 41 --crf 20 --colormatrix bt709 --force-cfr --acodec qtaac --aquality 54 --asamplerate 44100 --acodec-quality 2 --output "PAT TO OUTPUTFILE.mp4" "PATH TO INPUT VIDEO.avi"The one I used last for example, looks like this:
Now double click the .bat and this window will pop up (first it'll index the input video, though)
After a while (depending on u power) you'll have a nice video ready for ing.
By changing the preset (available ones are ultrafast, veryfast, faster, fast, medium, slow, slower, veryslow and placebo) you can affect the speed of the encode (slower the preset, smaller the file) and by changing the value of crf you can affect the quality of the video, thus affect filesize (0 being best quality, lossless mode, 51 being worst quality. Sane range is 16-24)

I used FRAPS and Virtualdub, from viewtopic.php?p=252802#p252802
and got this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aTaktjvzwI
Its 960x720, instead of 1280x720. Is there any large effect since I don't have a 720p option, or am I missing out something?
Oh never mind, it didn't appear because the video wasn't fully processed yet.

Needed
- Fraps
- Sony Vegas (Never ever use Windows Moviemaker, it will lower the quality of the video drastically!)
Now, go make videos and spread osu!
I tried using Windows Movie Maker to convert the video but I don't think the quality was that bad.

Make sure your speaker volume isn't low as well. I noticed that if your speaker volume is low, then the volume of the recording will be low as well.Wishy22 wrote: 3817b
I got everything fine, except for the fact that when I try to look at the video recorded by Fraps using MPC, the volume is really low and it sounds like trash, I got Realtek drivers.
Well no audio now, Stereo Mix isn't muted, etc.
So, after many annoying attempts at trying to record osu! and failing, I tried to find the root of the problem.
Turns out that my aux hard drive (5400RPM) was not fast enough to write the frames that FRAPS was recording, resulting in a stuttering framerate. Once I switch to my faster 7200RPM drive, everything ran like butter.
I thought I'd share this in case anyone is encountering a similar problem.

I'm trying to make PiP(picture in picture) but it won't work.
In video preview(before rendering) all looks ok.
But after rendering i'm getting something like this.

I re-converted the video that was causing problems in VirtualDub and now it's rendering in pip in vegas.
Seems that vegas doesn't want to work well with vid compressing format of my cam o.o
//edit
rendered and now all is good :3

and wich format should i use if i want it to have 32bpc

I assume you mean encoding the video with a gpu encoder or some other hardware accelerated solution.theProdigy wrote: 1m6336

If you're ok with the quality/filesizes it outputs, sure. GPU encoding solutions are hardly the most efficient ones though, mind you.

I have problems with recording, my osu slows down like hell and looks like I suck like hell.
I'll show you a link from a youtube recording from me a while ago.. did it twice and never did it again.
And this is a fairly good recording... They are even worse now, with faster songs. Oo

@koentie: Have you tried turning down graphic settings? You might wanna use "Low-end PC" and 640×480 resolution on the Options menu to be able to record using Fraps while retaining the 60 FPS.
My sister's laptop (yes, even crappier than yours) can record with Fraps just fine.
Another thing which completely destroys your performance while using fraps is recording on the same hard drive you have your game on. Granted, it's only a minor hit cause osu! doesn't really take up that much resources, but it's still a hit.
Also if the hard drive is old, you might encounter some framerate drops out of nowhere.

Making them spoilered still loads them IIRC, so that won't help. I also don't think this whole forum should adjust because some people with ancient hardware can't browse them with optimal speed.Winshley wrote: 6d5j56
