| How to Record Movies of Computer Games | | Question | | I'm looking to get some kind of video capture card for my boyfriend for graduation. He already has a Radeon, but he wants to be able to record his computer games as he's playing. What products should I be looking for? | | Answer | PC games don't require special hardware to capture video. A software solution can record video to disk.
- FRAPS - "Fraps is a universal Windows application that can be used with games using DirectX or OpenGL graphic technology."
- Taksi - "Taksi is a utility that allows you to take screenshots and record video clips of your favourite games and other 3D-graphics applications. Inspired by Fraps, Taksi aims to provide an open source alternative to that great tool."
- WeGame - "WeGame can record your gameplay from some of your favorite games."
- CamStudio - "CamStudio is able to record all screen and audio activity on your computer"
- Game Cam - "Game Cam allows the recording of real-time in-game movies."
Take your pick. Try them all if you like. FRAPS is the most recommended but is not freeware.
