Im trying to use Fraps to capture videos. I realize software video capture isnt the best, however its all i can do atm. Now, i have a (IMO) interesting problem. The program is bottlenecked at 19 fps, however it is no matter what i do. I can be playing FarCry with max settings and record in full 1024*768 with sound...and get 20 fps. I can play Quake 3 with Ultra Low settings and record in Half-Size (320*240 at ultra low settings) with no sound...and get 20 fps. Since the file sizes are so different, i think its safe to assume that my HardDrive is not the limiting factor. Seeing as how Quake 3 went, i think its safe to say that CPU is not the bottleneck. Any idea where it might be comming from?
