It's a 6.6 meg 7z file! :o
I'm just getting FRAPS to grap like 15 seconds of action
at a time and files are pretty large.
Any advise to decrease the file sizes so I can share the shots better?
It's the free version for now.
:oops:

What the.....These are AVI files?? (you said they were screenshots idi you not ) anyway niether WMP or Real player will play them, both give an error message saying they need a codec which isnt available, which codec do i need if any????
Both my media player and real player are up to date too.:shifty:

I think you should use an image editing application to make the pics smaller then upload them to something like photobucket.com

You need to install Fraps to watch them, they need the Fraps codec.

priater, you should recompress them with the XviD codec:
http://www.koepi.org/xvid.shtml

You also need VirtualDub (http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net) or a similar program to actually recompress them. After you´ve installed XviD and VirtualDub start VD, open the avi, go to Video/Compress, select Xvid (there should be two entries, select the one that says "FourCC code: xvid" at the right side of the window), click Configure.

In the configuration window change the following:

Profile @ Level: Advanced Simple @ L5
Encoding type: Single Pass
Target quantizer: 3
Click Other Options, set "FourCC used" to DivX.

After you´ve made all changes close the window by clicking OK. Select File/Save as AVI, enter a filename, click Save and wait until it´s finished.

If you only wanna post screenshots use the Screenshot feature of Fraps and not the Movie feature.

Yes, these are MOVIES.

@Gizzmoe installed your advice. Still playing with it but at least they are around 1
or 2 meg now.

Going for movies. I'd do ctrl + F11 if I wanted more screen shots.

Thanks
