TEF Youtube???

Okay so, Id like to start doing like... "video dairies" for Xair and Susurii, the thing is though im having issues with my "desktop screen recorder". Its called -- QuickRecord -- or something similer. (Im not using /my/ laptop right now so I dont remember what it is. XD ))

This program will only record if what ever im doing doesnt take up the whole screen ((so things like pc games such as Skyrim make it spass out)) or even maximizing TEF. It will START recording, then as I exit the window is gone. Now I have changed the settings so that its not SUPPOSED to minize but it still disapears. Im afraid its going to do something to my laptop -_- each time I try to close it if it does this little vanishing act it makes my screen turn into like an epeleptics night mare! So...if any of you do things for youtube and record your screens, please link me to the program you use? Or even if you know a /reliable/ one.

I always used Fraps for recording. The free version only records clips that are 30 seconds long and leaves a small watermark at the top of the video, but that's fine with me.

:/ Mine didnt, but I was able to find a pretty nifty editing prgram that was free :3 so thats cool. But the recording quality of the one that came with it is pretty crappy :/ cuz its a
"trail" even though you can keep using it.

For gaming, I use the paid version of fraps here are my endless forest videos: http://www.youtube.com/user/Zornology?feature=mhee

What kind of computer do you have? Do you have enough free space on your computer to hold these video files? I have 402 Gigs of videos on my computer right now, from recording my games.

Another option you could try is CamStudio... I'm not sure how well it records games, but I use it to record me while I draw sometimes.

But so far the best one I've used it Fraps.

Thank you for your help, I

Thank you for your help, I have an Acer, a newer modle built for multitasking, not much more I can tell you other than that. I'll have to save up for Fraps if I really want to do this, it seems to be the best program by all I have asked.
