funkturnal there is a hotkey set for recording, i think its f9 by default. I have used fraps pretty well but it was a huge videi file when i was done.
 
I use fraps, works way better than any other capture app.
Sart fraps first.
You need 2nd monitor enabled.
I believe you need video card acceleration enabled
If you see a little yellow numbers in a corner on your second monitor it will work.
F9 to start,
 
Sorry for diging out this old post but im kind of stuck on the same issue.

I've been knocking my head like crazy trying to record a video, so i started using default record from VDJ8
i chose webm mode, then MP4, video result is hopeless, the FPS is really bad and the image freezes most of the time.
So i installed back my FRAPS software wich used to work really good with VDJ5.
Now, i cant see the yellow numbers (FPS) there is no sign that the software is recording the VDJ video (i set F9 to activate record)
but when i close the program it prompts me that there is a recording, and ask if im sure to close it.

I also believe that my laptop cant handle video recording, but still wondering why FRAPS does not work with VDJ8

This are my specs.
laptop hp g60 550ca, windows 7 home 64

Thanks !
 
Do me a favor and copy and paste your issue into a new thread. There is no reason to open an old thread like this, because it has no relationship to todays software. Why are you making read a post from 07? Thank you.
