Major blow to Fraps, if it's successful. It's in beta, I'm about to try it out.

Wasn't this posted before? I tried it, it didn't work at all. Has anyone else tried it?

My question exactly; Fraps eats up FPS like a fat kid eats caek.

So how do you use it or activate it? I thought this update would be pointless so I just closed out of the ie box it opened.

Yeah, I wouldn't go for it in beta.
However, I'm for sure going to try out the release of the finished version though.

  Bad news.

edit: well, good news is it's still a beta.  so maybe they can iron out the bugs and perhaps get it to eat less resources.

It doesn't matter... the shear amount of data that needs to be captured is going to kill frame rates no matter what.  No way around it except to  capture the video output from the card on another PC.  Then you're dealing with Digital-to-Analog conversion and back again so you lose fidelity.

It's just too much data.

This is useless...

It limits the FPS to 30 max... I can't play with that much lag. I get like 70 with Fraps because it doesn't limit it, but 30 with this...lame.

It's only a beta, it will get better.

I used it for about 15 seconds, it recorded fine(@30fps) full size and used nearly 600MB.

I tried to play it back using Xfire and it crashed, opened it with PowerDVD and it was fine.


I will be using this from now on, but half size.

I tried it, it sucks it max captures at 30 FPS so as a result the vid isnt smooth + the size of vids are about the size of the moon. So unless they will add an option for an higher FPS capture and make the raw vids smaller than it might work.

Its not as good as FRAPS but is fucking free and you're running XFire in the back ground anyway.

I think useless is a tad overstating it, but i know what you mean ...
