Making a smaller size video.

[Lord AnthraX]

Bah, well I made a video with fraps but my problem is after running it at 29 fps, the video exceeds 400 MB of only 28 seconds of film.


I dont know what file types compress video files, Im not sure but I think .avi may, but im not sure how to convert a .veg (sony vegas 6) file into a .avi or even .wmv

maybe your sony has some software for compression.

try moviemaker also.

maybe post this in the audio/mutimedia thread

Do the videos open in Windows Media Player? You could try the Windows Media Player Encoder

To compress Fraps video files, get VirtualDub. Then go download the XviD codec for it. Use that program to compress a .avi file at a 1000-2000kbps bitrate. 1000kbps (what I use) will turn a 4.0GB video file into a 50MB video file, with decent quality (I can still read text in BF2).

You might want to try some other codecs/programs to make the output video resolution smaller. A low-res video at a high bitrate looks much better than a high-res video at a low bitrate, even when you fullscreen them both.

Thank you.
