As far as I can tell Fraps is the best there is when it comes to balancing efficiency and quality.
that wont put me from 100 fps to 15 fps in a New York minute?
I was hinting at fraps.
i use quicktime, but it's unreliable. my school uses camtasia and it's quite good.
recording software is a funny thing. you only get the good stuff if you pay for it...
Bandicam.
Camtasia isn't that great for video games.
i wouldn't know, i've only used it for tutorials. It's a hell of a lot more solid than quicktime or fraps though.
