You don't need the editor. That's only for touchup. Might want to read my Screenshot/Demo FAQ and get my Demolauncher. Though I'm afraid demos are in not-so-good shape in Issue 8.
To make a video you can actually turn in, well, what format is required?
I can't get either your Demo Launcher or your Demo Editor to work. 
demorecord is indeed wacky at the moment. it doesn't work on zones that has the wentworth building from what i've read here in the forums, and i couldnt get it to work in the arena also. it works in recluse's victory, but movement/actions in the playback isn't quite right.
try video capturing live using FRAPs or gamecam for now, then combine/edit them using windows movie maker. just be sure to disable the UI when you record those scenes.
i sure would like to know how to do demo editting too after seeing videos like these, but until they fix that, i wont bother for now.

Did you get Framework 1.1? There's a link on the page. Framework 2 won't do it, you've got to have 1.1. (You can have both 1.1 and 2 on your PC.)

Yea I guess I can try that. How do I work with the UI?
That would be what the help file is for. 
If you want to brave the strange timings in demos, here's how you would do it in a nutshell:
1. Get the demo how you like it. My editor can be used to remove powers/players you don't want in your demo. You can do some pretty sophisticated camera work, too, but it's pretty difficult.
2. Play the demo back using the dump option. When you play back, set it to be at a fixed FPS (say 10). This will make a ton of screenshots. Set the resolution to something low (1024x768 max), too, so you don't end up with a 100 gig movie.
3. Go get VirtualDub. It's a free program and great for making AVI's (which Quicktime should be able to play). Load those pictures and tell VirtualDub that they should each play for one tenth of a second. Stick some music in there, too.
4. Build and save.
The FRAPS method also works fine. Each method has strengths and weaknesses: the discernment of which shall be left as an exercise for the student.
ok cool . thanks I appreciate it.
How do I save in fraps?
ba bump
Pm me if you need the registered, full version of fraps for free.

Ok guys I seem to have a bit of a problem. I need to make a video for my audio and video class But I can't get my hands on a demo. Stormknight demo editor isn't available neither is the sloth one. I am hoping that maybe one of you guys could help me out since I have to get this assignment in this weekend.
