Video is nice. Can see everything pretty well.

Set your looting to Master Looter. Threshold blue. Pass on all loot. This will let you see only blue drops that drop.

Its helpful when you are power leveling and dont want crap :)

Your video needs to have resolution of 1280x720 or 1920x1080 for Youtube to render it as HD.

Kinda defeats the purpose of "High Definition" doesn't it? :p.

After you get about 1000 subscribers you can apply for partnership i think.

I'm still working on it, 76 and counting so far. >.>

Only bodies with blue items will 'sparkle'.

Good quality, but why is it only 480p? What resolution do you play in WoW? FRAPS sets the recording to half your resolution by default, you have to change it to full in the FRAPS settings.

Personally I record with fraps and edit with Windows Movie Maker 6.0 (nott Windows Live Movie Maker that comes with windows 7, it sucks).

Though a better editing program would be something like Sony Vegas.

See the sticky thread in this forum about some alternative editing programs (and recording ones too I think).

Hence why I'm still using Windows Movie maker.

So I added the voiceover in WMM, and then tried to open with with Vdub to compile it and it wouldn't work, are all files saved in WMM "ASF" files?

Why are you still trying to do something with vdub? Just hit the publish button in WMM, make sure you have set widescreen in the options, and select the publish for playing on this computer option. (at least if you are using WMM version 6.0)

Does WMM use the H.v26 (i think thats it) codec to compile the videos? If not wont I lose quality? Im recording at 1920x1080

I dunno, but my videos come out of WMM at 1080p these days, slight black frame on it since I don't record at quite 1080p (1680x1050) but yeah.

WMM uses it's own codec, the quality is very good.
