So I've been trying to capture some footage from a Sega Saturn emulator, but I can't seem to find any decent video capture programs to use. I tried using Jing Free, but it only records in swf, (and avi converters don't seem to work well at all), and it seems a little choppy.
I then tried Screen Camera, but that records and plays like a slideshow. :x
I heard that Fraps works quite well, but I dont' want to try downloading another program right away, anyone know what works, or had any success in the past?
-
Fraps works. It's not free, but it works.
-
It's free if you know the right way of obtaining it.

Google - > "fraps torrent"

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I tried FRAPS too, but it also seems to only record at about 3 frames per second. :cry:
Looks like no video capture for me.

That means your PC probably sucks then.

Thats what I thought too, it's a couple years old now, but it had a 512MB graphics card and 2GB of Ram with a Quad Core Processor.
I wouldn't say it 'sucks' but I'm not really a big PC gamer, so I don't upgrade it often.

Hum....
it shouldn't be working at 3FPS then..

I'm trying to record a the SSF Saturn Emulator, if that makes a difference. I think it was set to record at 30FPS, but it certainly didn't come out that way in the video.

Oh... right... I should of read your OP more carefully lol
I'm not an expert with emulators, but I know that SSF is quite a taxing emulator, that might be your issue.

Yeah, when I was playing the game it slowed down as well, maybe the combination of SSF and Fraps is too much?

Most likely!
Time to upgrade that bitch! ^_^

or build your own PC

Not sure I'm ready for an upgrade just yet, most taxing game I have is Empire, and that runs perfectly fine on the PC. 8-)

SSF isn't really that taxing... I think a entry level AMD Athlon 64 X2 and a decent midrange video card of the same vintage (2005-06) should run it pretty decently. I went from a Athlon 64 X2 5000+ 2.6GHz dual core to a Phenom II X4 940 3GHz quad, and I didn't notice much difference.
You using the Aero theme if you have Vista or 7? Lots of programs running?
