FRAPS and sound

[Anesthetize]

Hi there:)

I just started using FRAPS, the video recording software. I noticed that it's recording the wrong sound - it's recording my Skype "bloops" and not in-game Freelancer sounds. I checked the FRAPS FAQ and I didn't see anything on how to change sound inputs. Currently I have Record Win7 sound checked, on Stereo.


I'm using 3.2.3 Build 11796, on Windows 7 64. Any suggestions?

It should record all the sounds that you would normally hear on your speakers as well, including skype sounds and ingame sounds. If you're hearing both, you can simply turn your status to busy on skype, so you don't hear any sounds from that.

Nope, it's recording exclusively from the background. I had music from iTunes, plus in-game shooting sounds coming through my speakers.

You may need to go into your sound management thingy menu. and check that the 'record device' is actually your sound card.

edit: I meant in windows, not in fraps. the audio managment stuff from windows.

Put skype in busy mode.

start the game , put fraps on , log on skype

or just log off skype when frapping
