Sumo what did you use to record ?

You should try Dxtory: http://dxtory.com/v2-home-en.html
And then download and use Lagarith Lossless Video Codec: http://lags.leetcode.net/codec.html
try with the YV12 codec, it doesnt use as much space but keeps the quality

I've been testing it out, but need to get a couple of hard drive to make a raid for storing them.

This was recorded with fraps using lossless avi in 2560x1440, which in turn was imported into adobe premiere and after effects/edit was encoded to 40mbit cbr h.264 1080p and uploaded to youtube.

i could prolly save some space@hd with some lossless codec. Problem is that that codec most proberly taxes the cpu pretty hard during capture=lag, which i dont want

[Knockerr]

Actually summo from the test's I did recording in HD @ 30fps using that codec while recording there was little to no difference, I was recording to a second HDD but the write speed bandwidth was only 70mb which was too low. I think you ideally need a raid array of HDD for the extra bandwidth to write effectively.

I dont know what kind of setup you have, are you writing the fraps to a single separate HDD?

Nerds!

Im using a 2600k@4.6ghz, 16gb ram together with a amd 7850 with a slight oc.
The disk im writing to is a old 5400rpm 1.5tb drive and wow itself is on a ssd.
So fraps basically has the hd all for itself during capture, never had any probs with dropped frames etc.
