Hb_Kai Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 Yo people. :)I'm looking for some software that can record what I'm doing on the screen mainly for gaming but I don't know what's good and would rather know before downloading and wasting loads of time finding crap stuff.I've heard of Fraps - http://www.fraps.com/ - not sure if it's what I'm looking for but does anyone know anything either about this or any other software I could use?

ishanjain Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 There you are... you have the answer...I have been using fraps for long time now and it is a perfect software. For recording windows screens, you can go for camstudio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josiah Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 You know what, fraps never worked for me. I have no idea why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raddy Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 I use Fraps and it's pretty easy to use. You just install it and you bind a key to turn on recording (F9 by default). It then records and dumps the video file to a folder until you tell it to stop. The only issue is that it doesn't do on-the-fly video compression, so videos are typically a few gigs in size, depending on how long the recording is.

pewpewmarc Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 I've never encountered fraps before. But if you're looking for a software that can capture your screen while playing, you can try OBS Studio. It's also good for streaming.
