I am trying to record gaming and audio at 1600p, which is working fine and dandy, I get nice large files and they pay back fine in media player etc etc.
Now my problem is this, I recorded around 1.5-2 hours of left 4 dead footage, and it splits it into 4gb files which are around a minute long each.
If I add this to windows movie maker it loads a few, states out of memory and has a few with errors, then loads a few more and repeats this until they are all "added". The ones that have errors are not always the same, which is confusing me.
If I add just 10 then I do not get an out of memory error, but if I encode it to the standard 1080p the video either comes out totally black but with audio fine, or alternates between full video and audio and then black screen and audio (every time it would change from one fraps file to the next is when it changes from footage to black).
Is this because windows movie maker doesnt support 1600p? If so is there a good bit of software that will work?
I very recently bought Xsplit as well, and while I can record happily at 1080p while gaming at 1600p, it lags my game to hell on every setting I have tried so far, although this could easily be miss configuration (still got testing to do) or just because its still beta etc. Even just having it running and not recording causes large slow downs, but thats another issue.
I dont want to have to play in a 1080p window, I would rather buy the software required to get it to work, anyone got any ideas?
Edit: I have accidently recorded in afterburner before (forgot aboutthe hotkey) and I didnt notice lol. I have forgotten what formats it output in, but if anyone knows whether it works with movie maker or similar that would be great to save me wasting time recording an hour of footage only to find out i cant use it.
edit 2: I tried virtualdub and added all the files to a conversion queue and it simply stated that it failed on every one, no idea why and I have never used the program before so dont have a clue to be honest. If someone could tell me how to configure it for this sort of fraps footage I could test properly.
