To distribute the replay saved with FIFA never was simple for two motive: before all of the file is not a normal video file (compatible with multimedia readers what WinAmp or the same Windows Middle Player) but a specific file that can be visualized alone all’inside of FIFA; in second place, in the last versions of FIFA, the replay are saved in a much little manner recognizeable (for example,The rescue is with sequential numbers and without the possibility of to specify the name) : you imagine to want to send off to a your friend a specific replay between the tens that find yourselves in the folder of rescue... dovreste mettervi to the search for a difficult available file. To obviate these (and other) problems is possible "to record" the replay of FIFA in video file compatible with the multimedia readers cited in priority (but obviously also with a lot other) that maintain quality and unbroken dimensions.
To install the necessary programs to record what it it is seen in the screen when it is played are available different programs, but the better one (at least to my warning) is FRAPS, program that until the version 1.9D was freeware and that (unfortunately like too much often happens today) from 2.0 became shareware, with actual limitations for how much pertains what interests to those: the record of the short films. For such motive, in this tutorial we will use the last version available freeware, note the 1.9D, that allows an entire record and without restrictions of some type. Before beginning the installation of FRAPS, you ensured to have installed some up-to-date driver for the video card (the 1.9D asks for like minimum the Detonator 43.45 for the cards GeForce and the Catalyst 3.2 for the ATI), otherwise the program will NOT work of secure. You install FRAPS, possible on the partizione of the rigid disk on that have plus space, for reasons that we will see later on. You install also the codec XviD and Virtual Dub (in this tutorial all of the references I am at the version 1.5.9 Build 18121), tool that will serve us later on to compress the short film recorded.
To use FRAPS From The moment that the utilization of FRAPS is very simple and that the file inside Help clarifies most of the doubts, in this tutorial we will limit to ourselves the analysis of the main functions for how much pertains the record of video. Concentriamoci on the section "Movie Options". Above all, we break the pigeonhole "video Enable capture" and we plan the key (" Hot key") that there will be more comfortable to begin and to finish the record. Settiamo besides the value 25 fps like "Movie framerate" (not obligatory value, but advisable because conventional).
To record a video with FRAPS before recording your video, you know that the sole resolution supported from FRAPS is 640x480; this means that if in the game have a resolution of 1024x768, the video will frame alone a central surface peer to a quarter of the screen, usual insufficient to see well the actions of your replay. Before recording, settiamo therefore in FIFA the resolution to 640x480. A made time this, we open FRAPS, minimizziamolo and we throw FIFA. We load the replay that we want to convert in video and we reward F9 (either the key that we had settato like "Hot key" in priority) to begin the record and of new F9 (or the key chosen) to finish it. We do immediately caution to a thing: the video AVI will have very large dimensions (about 10MB to the second with framerate to 25), for this you avoid to carry out "taken again" too long and remembered always of to finish the records begun (eye to the symbol of record that appears to the place of the indication of the fps)!
To compress the video recorded Like already said, the dimensions of the video would hinder its distribution if not possible pits to compress it. To do this, we make use of ourselves some Codec XviD (but well also other types of codec go, for example the DivX), of whom we will examine alone the features to ourselves necessary (for deepening sull’art of to compress the video there are hundred of sites and of available leaders in net). We throw therefore Virtual Dub, we open the video that we had recorded in priority (the ideas in the main folder of FRAPS) and we experience to drag the helm that appears in lower part to see the different frames. Now, we proceed to the settaggio of the options of compression. We go on "Video" and we choose "Full processing fashions"; we click therefore on "Compression...", like in figure:
in the strip to our political left we choose "XviD MPEG-4 Codec" and we go on "Configure" :
Now settiamo the mailings of the codec how follows: "Encoding Fashions: 1 Pass - quality" and "Quality" the possible utmost to second of the final dimensions of the video that we want to obtain; to do an example, to leave from a short film of 4 seconds (with framerate to 25), that at first weighed 41.7MB, with a quality of 50 it is obtained a video compressed of acceptable quality that weighs just 462KB. Nevertheless, it advise to hold a quality of at least 75 because it is distinguished well the details; in the example of first, with a quality of 75, the video compressed increases of except for of 200KB (a reasonable increase, because the increase of quality is sensitive).
A time settate the options how said, we begin the phase of the true and actual compression: we go on "File" -> "Save as AVI. .." and we introduce a different name from the original video. It leaves therefore a window like this
That it some course of the trial informs us; we wait for that finisca to go to see the result. If all it went well, the file obtained should have a slightly inferior quality with respect to the original video done not compress but dimensions determined minor (to second of the quality settata).
The video is now ready to to be distributed; even if should not change a lot, you it some further KB save it. You remember that to visualize the file is necessary that the user that unloads have installed it the codec XviD (updated to a version at least equal to that with that have compressed the video).
