Title: Compressing Fraps movies
Post by: O Ilusionista on November 23, 2013, 04:11:24 PM

While Fraps is one of the best tools to record gameplay, it has a big problem: it makes just HUGE files.

For example, some minutes in Bandicam turns into a +-4mb file, while Fraps file has +-60mb.
Plus, there are another downsize: Frap's videos can't be opened by many of the video converters and the ones which can opens it..simple screws it up.

After some research, I found a good solution: Freemake Video Converter

Here is how I did:

- click "+video" and choose your file (no kidding)
- click "TO AVI" button
- click on the blue gear "edit preset"

- Modify the values to those:

On my tests, it converted a 70mb fraps video into a 4,86mb, which a very nice quality.

If you use one of the predefined size from youtube (and Mugen uses it), its okay.
But in OpenBOR, since it uses a different size (480x272 in my case), youtube kills the quality :(

If I upload  THE SAME VIDEO to Vimeo, it works perfectly
