[XyZspineZyX]

Hi there

I got Fraps 2 the other day and tested it out to just filming a track i made as a test which larsted just under 4 mins, went to watch it and it worked fine but found that the file was 750mb.
I looked up on the net about conpressing an AVI and found this http://www.dvdrhelp.com/avi2divx.htm tryed what it sayed and it work but it didn't seem to come out that well, is there any programs out theere that you use that would compress it and keep the quality ?

Thanks

You can compress the movie with the movie making software you use like Windows Movie Maker 2 etc... or you can uise virtual dub. Most guys are now using Xvid or Divx to compress the movies for final release.
