From what I've learnt using FRAPS, on-the-fly codecs aren't compressed very well, so when you try to play them back your hard-drive is struggling to keep up with the video.
Imagine asking your hard-drive for a hundred megabytes of video per second...
Compress the video, and you should be able to watch it fine.
At home I run (2) 512MB Dual Channel DDR 2CLS 333Mhz, ATI Radeon x850 Pro, and a 120GB WD 8MB cache 7200RPM hard drive. I get at least 100+ FPS when in-game. However, whenever I try to video cap with Fraps, it drops to <10 FPS. I've tried a variety of settings in both windowed and full-screen modes.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips for this if they had run into this problem, or possibly could pass on what settings they are using.
