Video software advice please.

[gypsymoth]

I've been asked how to make a video record of a flight but I don't know know the answer so I would appreciate some info I can pass on.  I assume it'll mean d/l some software but what?   I've trawled here but can't seem to find any 'how to'  or anything  :-[
Thanks!

FSRecorder , FRAPS, and Windows Movie Maker is the way I use.

And the best part is that all three are free!

Use FSRecorder to record your flight, so you can concentrate on the flying.

Next use recorder to play back the flight and use FRAPS to record this. FRAPS demo is free, but only records 30second clips.

When you have that done. Import all of the FRAPS files into Windows Movie Maker and arrange and edit and add effects and music if you wish, and then save it to the format that you wish. usually wmv.

This is the basic outline of how I do it. It's somewhat more involved than this, making just a basic video can take me up to 3 or 4 hours, but the end results are rather nice.



Here are a few I've made using this process:

That's a great quick reply - many thanks.   I'll check it all out & pass it on.
I use a Mac for my video editing so I'm not much help with fs9, etc, except that I know how to edit stuff.  We'll get the hang of it really quickly I'm sure.    
PS - I will look at your videos later when I have more time & thanks for including those links.
