Slyde Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 My fraps has always lagged, from when i press record till when i cancel it. I really have no idea why, and it quite a problem when you are trying to record something . It lags so bad the vid can barely play My comp specs are fine, too fine that i doubt i have to post them. I don't lag in games unless the net is slow and that its a net game. Help will be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Still, please do post specs so we can entirely rule that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheelman101 Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 lol wtf...that should be perfect, do you have the FPS seet to 25? or 30? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I'm guessing it's your CPU though.. I've got a 2.6 GHz p4 and that really is slow as shit. Fraps makes a slightly compressed (barely) .avi file and it kinda strains the CPU. All your other specs are good.. Might try lowering the resolution, I think that should gain quite some FPS.

Slyde Posted July 11, 2007 Author Share Posted July 11, 2007 lol wtf...that should be perfect, do you have the FPS seet to 25? or 30? i use 30. Think i just gotta take things crappy first.. And another problem is that sometimes it just lags at the very start and it screws up when i try to play the video, skip the intro and it's fine.

Slayer Posted July 11, 2007 Share Posted July 11, 2007 San Andreas runs @ 25fps so first set Fraps to record at 25fps, 640x480, full screen. Then go to options and set SA resolution 640x480x32. Tho SA runs on slow PCs when recording at real time Fraps uses loads of system resources. With these (fraps) settings it won't lag for you, I have a quite similar configuration and it's known to lag for me if I record on 1280x1024x32 (the resolution I play on).
