fraps compression


Canine

 

Posted

Just bought the fraps video recorder [the thread in GD gave me the inspiration] and trying to convert the HUGE file via virtual dub [frabs says thats the best way]. However the projected time is roughly an hour just to compress, is there a faster way to do so?

Reason i ask is because i need something to keep me entertained before GR [yes im getting the pre issue blues already!] and recording missions and uploading them to websites will keep me entertained for a good while.

Any help welcome as i am a total noob at this


@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!

Depending on which codec you're trying to go from and to, http://handbrake.fr/ may be worth a look.

However, compressing video from an uncompressed source file is a non-trivial computation task, so it may just be that it'll take that long on your PC.
