I did a nifty 10 minute video walking people through the material system of my editor, but the encoding application decided to blow up and corrupt the files… 
Need to find a better way to do this kind of video captures… for fullscreen applications, I have Fraps, which works like a charm, but for “desktop” applications, I don’t have anything good… Any suggestions?
Anyway, this will be the post before the weekend… it still wasn’t this week that we did the “big announcement”, but we’ll do it next week for sure!
Have a nice weekend everyone!

I have one video capture app installed on my PC at work, but can’t remember its name right now. It’s fairly good (at least fulfills my needs for creating videos of desktop apps; that was actually my main reason for installing it). I’ll be sure to send you its name next Monday (by now you probably have already some app to do the work, but nevertheless the one I have at work might be a bit better)

Damn! Completely forgot to send you this info. The app is called CamStudio OSS Desktop Recorder. It’s cool because you can place all sorts of speech balloons in diferent places of the screen, and show them in sequence to explain stuff that would require audio otherwise. The downside of it is that’s not intuitive. It’s not the top notch in video recorder apps, but it’s free and it does the job nicely IMHO.

Better late than never! 🙂
Anyway, gave it a try today and after some fight with the codecs, I found out these: http://jawormat.republika.pl/xvid.html, it behave just like the doctor ordered…
Will probably have a video up today or tomorrow recorded with it…
Thanks for the info, Goes!
