Author Topic: Problem: Fraps recording slow and recording 2 videos instead of 1. (Read 996 times)

Fraps is currently recording my RA2 game slowly, the game will be running fine but for some reason fraps is recording it much slower. Fraps also records 2 videos instead of 1, most likely due to the slow speed that it's recording at.

Anyone else have this problem before? know any fix?

The only fix is to get a better PC, FRAPS hogs your pc's resources. As for the 2 video thing, FRAPS splits video files into 4gb chunks.

My PC is fine and runs current games smoothly, I also have the full version of fraps so my files shouldn't be split and it hasn't done this before now.

reduce your ra2 res

No, it doesn't matter if other games don't lag. FRAPS is a lot more intensive than RA2. That's that only real explanation for this. And it splits files whatever version you have. I know, I use it. Annoying, but you can do nothing about it.

I've been recording fine with it until now, perhaps it's this copy of the game I'm using because I don't think I've recorded any matches on this copy of the game.
