Apparently, Xfire has added video support. I decided to test it out. I loaded up single player and took a few videos. Then I edited them together with Adobe Premiere Elements. This is what came out. Remember, it's just an experiment.

You're waiting too long with the shots, that's why you have 0.4458.

Yea, Chou, I know that. I am trying to improve on that, but it's so hard for me. I think I am just too afraid that I will miss and get shot while reloading.

Somehow I like it, music is relaxing, so is your gameplay. You need to speed up a bit! But somehow this video was very entertaining for me, +1 for you!

Regarding the movie: what resolution/FPS can you get on xfire? Is it fixed or can you modify it? Can you turn sound on/off like FRAPS? What rig are you running on?

ROFL over the title!.... hehe.. Nice!

See what happens when you render and upload in  hiqh quality to like filefront or gamerztheatre, or vimeo.

You Tube is gonna rape your quality no matter how good you can make it.

Resolution: Full (monitor size) and half (half of monitor size). I used half.
FPS: It is fixed, sadly. You can choose 25 and 30 FPS.
Sound: It has a sound input setting, but it only sees my mic in and input, so I didn't record sound.
Rig: AMD 64 X2 5000+ BE @ 3GHz, 2GB G.Skill DDR2 800 RAM, Seagate 250GB HD, Samsung DVD±R, XFX 7600GT. I use a 19" widescreen Hanns-G monitor.

I would, but I deleted the original videos, and have already filled the Recycle Bin with newer videos. The best thing I have is the YouTube High Quality link, which is higher quality, but is still not that great. As a matter of fact, it is the same resolution that I originally rendered the video. I can, however, upload the current video to another website. Since the resolution is still the same, though, it doesn't look much different from the YT HQ version.

Currently I am working on making another sniper video, though this time in multiplayer. I have to say that it is very hard. I am not really that much of a sniper, as you can see by my stats, so I don't have much sniping practice. Basically, I run around and try to find people to kill. Out of the two hours I have recorded, only three and a half minutes has been used so far. That's how terrible of a sniper I am. I don't even think I will make any more videos of sniping after this upcoming one. *an audible sigh of relief is heard from the crowd*

In other news, I am sorry for the audio quality. I need to find a better setting in Premiere Elements for the audio.

I'll stick to fraps then. Thx for the info.

O and I'm guessing your slow sniping has something to do with your actual mouse. Looking at that movement, I hope your not on laser..ball mouse maybe?

So the point of this is that Xfire can capture movies, not that you can get uber headshots against SP bots, right?

Yes, I am using a Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 6000. And my mouse pad is extremely small.

Right. I also wanted to see how well Premiere Elements was for editing Battlefield 2 movies.
EDIT: Spelling mistake >.<
EDIT 2: Finished my first and last sniper video. Don't make fun of the title, I ripped it from Othello by Shakespeare because I had no idea what to call it. http://www.vimeo.com/810569

That cool it worked for you. I tried it and it brought my graphics to a grinding halt. I may have something too high for my old rig.  I have not tried FRAPS in a while to see how it compares. With my old vid card, FRAPS worked ok. It was still laggy but I did get decent footage.

Any advice on Xfire video set up? I used full screen (which may have been the problem).

Here are my settings: 30 FPS, Half-size, Do not record sound. That's it. It runs well, but that might be because my CPU and graphics card are more than apt to run BF2.
