In the past I've use that video program bundled with ATI drivers to reduce the file from Fraps. Forget the name of it, now it's an optional install though.

It'd be nice if someone could share their gaming render codec/settings

Audio: 192 Kbps, 48,000 Hz, 32 Bit, Stereo, AAC
Video: 29.970 fps, 1280x720 Upper field first, YUV, 10 Mbps
Pixel Aspect Ratio: 1.000

There was one that could use ATI & Nvidia GPUs but I also can't remember the name now! xD

Audio: AAC, 48Khz, 128 bitrate
Video: 1280x720, 30fps, h264, target bitrate(Mbps) 3, max bitrate (Mbps) 6, 2 pass VBR

Those are the settings I use for youtube in Premiere. It's resulting in half the filesize of the default settings with no noticible quality drop that I can see so I'm pretty happy with it.

1280x720, 30fps, h264, average bitrate 6500, single pass abr

I dunno, whatcha thinks?

Edit: Wow youtube really shags the quality!

I recorded a session using afterburner but it had no sound? Is that a setting somewhere or do I have an older version or something?

Aye you need the latest beta, I had the same problem.

Recorded at 1680x1050 with FRAPS at 30fps so the ratio has changed slightly to get rid of the black bars at each side. Edited in Vegas 11, rendered following this guys settings:

Original file size for that clip was 1.98Gb, the rendered WMV is 51.7MB.

After recording some game footage with whatever program, fraps, after burner etc...

Can you change/vary the playback speed of the video, but play it smoothly, not juddery. I want to record some game footage and have some 'slow motion' bits in it.

sunlitsix · 4 Dec 2011 at 16:27

Yep, I think that's even possible in Live Movie Maker.

GTO656 · 5 Dec 2011 at 15:51

I've used Viruadub and managed to get the size from 4Gb to 900mb which is great still AVI. is h264 best?. and is it best converted to wmv(smaller size?

thanks again.

GTO656 · 5 Dec 2011 at 23:09

This is the one I converted down to 900mb and uploaded today:

any chance of getting this to about 200mb-500mb that is still good quality?

cheers guys
