Ok well from my personal experience, If i fraps a vid i dump it into Windows movie maker (or such)
*movie maker go to cntrl +P or File, save movie file.
Save for my computer.
Give it a name.
Press next.
Play with options untill you have the output size you require.
Job done.
( note Fraps & Windows Movie Maker dont mix well when they are both open, it may cause movie maker to shut down). Save your project often.
I use Fraps and save the movies on my RAID1, after a 1st filtering i used Premeriere Pro with Mainconcept H.264 to reduce the size.
Fraps uses 1GB for ca. 1 minute, my RAID1 is 320GB. But i have to reduce my use of it, because it needs a lot of time sorting the stuff.

Why is the AVI movie generated by Fraps so big? How can I reduce the size?
The filesize is big because there isn’t enough time to encode the movie while the game is running. The movie frames are slightly compressed, but still require a large amount of disk space due to the high resolutions. Once you have finished capturing you should convert the saved AVI into one of the popular compressed movie formats such as mpeg or divx. Recommended programs for doing this are tmpgenc (Tsunami Mpeg Encoder), and VirtualDub.
Using VirtualDub is quite easy. To create a compressed version of the AVI follow these steps:
* Start VirtualDub
* Select File->Open and choose the AVI in the Fraps directory you wish to compress.
* Select Video->Compression and choose the codec you wish to compress with (usually divx)
* Select File->Save As AVI and specify a filename for the new AVI.
If you have Windows XP you can also use Windows Movie Maker to compress the video files. If you use Windows Movie Maker it's recommended that you keep your Fraps video files at 800x600 or under.
lmao ?? i did use half screen and change from 60 fps to 25 while doing transport vid ? and that turn out at 61 gig and its 32 mins lmao
I prefer virtualdub, go for that one dreadd
