a good recording program

[kosmation]

i want a program so i can record my videos and have them in my library . do you know any good one? is fraps good ?

[Storm_at_Sea]

I'd like to know too.

Fraps is a great recording program, though the files will be really big. You'd need some rendering program too.

play-claw, Fraps, Nvidia shadow play. One of those 3 will do the job.

Nononono, fraps no, use the ingame system, enable developer console, bind it to a key and use it.
Command: startmovie
Syntax: startmovie [output name] [format]
If you only send startmovie it'll display all the formats, you have avi, jpg, tga,...
Example: startmovie mynicestfrag avi
And TARAAA! Inside your csgo folder you'll get a avi video, use this command in windowed mode so you can select the coded output for the video, I recommend MPEG 4 Xvid Codec, if you want to stop recording you need to send another command.

Just don't use fraps if you have at least a slightest orientation with settings. Fraps is for people who don't know what things like start menu are, so they need a simple thing. And people who wants no lags/input lag/good file size/most needed settings like optimizing for youtube 320p 480p 720p etc, use Bandicam because it is the most balanced recording program since a few years ago.

best one is the in-game system, it has NO effect on your fps and records highest quality. all you have to do is render it.

like they are saying above the in-game works good for doing that, but if you wanted to record other games you play or possibly even get into streaming ? I find/use Dxtory a good program have been using it for a while now and have had not problems with it at all, easy to set up easy to use.

Bandicam is my personal favorite and I don't understand why people still use Fraps (probably just because it's a way too popular...). Bandicam has the ability to record with compression or without, where it's possible to change the framerate, bitrate, video codec, resolution, etc. And it even supports recording for non-game activitys, which I personally really love. Or you could simply use it as a FPS limiter (Fraps doesn't allow that without recording). If you want you could even use it as a pure audio recorder (speaker and microphone). And the best, it doesn't have pervert free user limitations like Fraps has. I know, this sounds like a fanboy post, but I don't get how people only know Fraps, while there are much better alternatives. And I'm absolutely fascinated about it.

You can also do "record demo 1" in console. It records whole match in your perpesctive. Anything you do or say or anyone else use mics/chat is all in it. ;)

We're talking about video, not demo.

Thanks for more info, I didn't know it had an ingame system to record. Also will check out Bandicam, I've seen it on other's videos before (recently- at the top/advertisement). I only have a limited free fraps, seems quite limited (even as full version) compared to what I've heard of Bandicam just w/in this thread. Will experiment with the ingame system first.

To testerhood- for me, I just heard of fraps first (ppl I knew used it, I saw it on videos), but I've not bought any program for this use. I wouldn't buy only knowing about 1, I'd check out several if available and compare for my needs before a purchase. I can only speak for myself though. Thanks again everyone.

record demo "demoname" then startmovie "demoname" .dem, select render codec, render to avi or anything else.
