That is correct, I completely bypass FRAPS and record and transcode in real time.

That is correct, I completely bypass FRAPS and record and transcode in real time.
K, I am a GUMP. I cannot find a way to record in VLC. I think I can get the transcoding down, but how do I capture from the game window?
My game is City of Heroes and is OpenGL I think.
Here are the settings I am currently using.
I want to use a different encoder and I am not yet thrilled with the final results AND it takes 70% CPU use off a quad core.... BUT it records in close to real time at decent frame rates and lets me play WoW with decent framerates.
"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe screen:// --screen-fps=30 --sout=#transcode{cropbottom=1280,vcodec=mp2v,vb=409 6,scale=1,width-800,height=640}:std{access=file,mux=ps,dst=c:\frap s\test.avi}}'"
The above does not record audio and it records at 800 x 640 and saves it as C:\FRAPS\test.avi. It records on screen 1 only and cuts the screen in half (because I play on half of 30" screens). If you remove the crop bottom=1280 that should fix it.
