Hey.
i need somethign that wil record my screen at 24 frames per second, (well, i mgiht be able to live wiht 12 ), and taht will not lag up my pc too much. The deal is that, wehn i am RCE in olly, it is bloddy enoing after spending like an hour in the code, and finally get it working that u forget what the hell u were suppoused to pach in the exe....
Any ideas for such a prog?
thx

Howdy,

24 per second ?? I hope you have a huge hard drive and some big ram

Search "screen capture".

i faced this challenge a few years ago. the best solution i found (in terms of frame rate + resolution) was to get a video card with s-video-out and record directly onto a dv-camcorder

crap...time to go to radio shack adn get me a dam cable to connect my video card to my tv so i can record it onto tapes....

i also faced this problem of course, and am lazy, too. i tried to force myself remembering:
immediately after making any change: press "screenshot" key.

parallel having some evil msword/openoffice running or any app where i can quickly paste it into, and do not loose time.

so i have just the points in time which i need. because your next problem could probably be: ok i have 10hours video - ahm now how do i best find the important "scenes"

i do not always do it this way of course, at least it is simple, does not need much time, and gives you "all" the information you need

Just be careful with those tapes, if your girlfriend finds a hidden tape containing a four hours long screendump of a debugger screen in your closet, she might just wish you were a normal guy hiding some porn...

in olly haha it has a patch window and it remembers all patches even after you restart
also will warn you if the total number of patches (a patch is considered a block of continuous bytes no matter what size) exceeds 1000 you can selectively apply the patches by going to the patch window

patch window is right, but what if you are not saving all this - or patch with a hexeditor for some reasons (olly might crash because of your patches )? it is a good idea of course!

Fraps might do the trick, if you're looking for a quick-and-dirty solution that won't necessarily require additional hardware. I've always heard that the pros do a two computer setup - one just to run the program that's being captured, and then a second with a video encoder card to capture the output. Otherwise it really kills your framerate (at least if you're capturing something like a FPS game).
