Hey guys,

 

When im on The flight sim, my FPS is alright at average 25-40 frames. When i record, my FPS drops to 10 or less. Ive tried almost everything. I have fsx on its own hard drive (not ssd) and i have fraps on another hdd. I save my videos and pictures on the hdd with the hdd that fraps is on.

 

My system specs.

 

3x hdd- 1 w/windows 7 x64, 1 w/fsx and all addons, 1 w/fraps and a little extra files

Amd 955 @ 4.0 ghz

Sapphire 6870 1gb

12 gb ram corsair

Msi 790fx-gd70 mobo

550 watt power supply cooler master

Try DXTORY.

The Fps drop is relatively minor as compared to FRAPS.

I use GameCam myself, there is very little frame loss with it, and file sizes are much smaller. For example I did 2 video today that was an hour long, and they ended up being about 1.4GB, when processed they ended being 640K and 330K. A slight reduction in quality, but not bad. One of the features it lacks though, is the ability to use 2 sound recording sources, so when I d MCE videos I have to use FRAPS. Does DXTory support 2 audio recording devices?

Hi Tom!

 

Does DXTory support 2 audio recording devices?

 

Yes it does!

 

Here is a good overview of the program:

Thanks! I'll give it a shot! If it performs as well as GameCam, I'll probably switch, especially since GameCam doesn't seem to be actively supported anymore.

Mahalo nui (thanks a ton) for all the inputs guys! Ill try each and one of them.
