  • How big?

    I tried to do a Let's Play earlier today and I just kept getting issue apon issue. This last time, I got a notification that I was running out of space on the drive that I was recording on and then my recording program just died. When I tried to review the final, it said it was 1.08 gigs and I couldn't play it. How big do Let's Play videos get once they're around 10-20 minutes? Can someone give me some advice? I use Hypercam 2. I was told it was good for emulators.
  • I was gonna use Fraps, but firstly, I couldn't get it to work, and second, I had to pay to get it to record more than 10 seconds. And with the health issues I've been having for 2 years now, I can't afford to pay for anything.
  • Bandicam blows chunks... XD or just feels like it, I only use it to record games FRAPS can't and that are windowed because Hypercam won't record win 7 audio on my pc due to no sound card? or somethin. I hate the box bandicam puts on your desktop with a passion. But I'm sure with more experience I can get around the problems I have with it.

    Anyway, Hypercam I believe has a bug where it can't record of X amount of file space or the file is ruined. Another reason not to use it. That or record in shorter bursts, but limiting yourself sucks. :(

  • I tried using Playclaw and it wouldn't allow the emulator to play. On another note, I don't have an external harddrive, and paying for programs is impossible for me right now, since current health issues prevent me from working.
