Recording OpenGL
« on: 28 June 2006, 23:24 »
Does anyone know of any programs I can use for recording the video of an OpenGL game (Like ut2004) and writing it to some small/compressed video file on disk?

Also once I have a video file from the game whats a good program for editing the video?

I don't know, it might be possible if you're using an emulator or virtual machine but I've never heard of anything that'll work on a normal PC.

What OS are you using?

I think there's an Xrecord X11 extension, but I'm not sure it'll work with OpenGL, and I'm not sure it works at all on Xorg (Xfree 86, maybe).

I know some people plug their TV-out into their AV-IN on their video cards or something (something like that) to record videos of X...

The TV-out, why did I not think of that?!

Does this help ?

you could get a bunch of frames as screenshots then combine them with say Gimp to make a movie ...

fixedfps 30|dumpframes start

to start dumping the frames to screenshots ... and

dumpframes stop|fixedfps

to stop, then use Gimp

In Quake 3 and up (unless 2 has it too ?), you can record a video directly ... just use /video
