GreyKnight Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Bucky, Could you just explain what you tried exactly? Quote
DD_Bucky Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 I copied a ntrack file from the records folder of the game and pasted it to desktop. After uploading it to utube I get a "unable to convert video file" message when I try to watch it. Quote
GreyKnight Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Bucky, I replay the track in IL-2 and then use FRAPS to record it as it is played. Then it is saved as... an .avi file I believe, off the top of my head. Finally, I need to edit that video file so it is compressed, as it's normally HUGE! Several hundred MegaBytes and often over the 1GB limit for YouTube. For that purpose I use VirtualDub. Then... it's ready to upload to YouTube. As an ntrack has no other use than within the IL-2 game itself. GK Quote
GreyKnight Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 VirtualDub you can get here for free... http://sourceforge.net/projects/virtualdub/ FRAPS is $37 US Quote
DD_Bucky Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 I've got a great tutorial on Fraps and Virtualdub (which I can download both for free) from SimHQ.com. Quote
GreyKnight Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Oh yeah, I forgot you can have a free version of FRAPS, which adds a watermark to your vids and limits the size, I believe. p.s. Not seen that tutorial, pretty impressive! Quote
