jlbelard Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Since the update, FRAPS does not seem to work anymore, I am missing the info on the upper left corner of my screen... Do fellows FRAPS users experience the same? Or am I the only one?

g7rta Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 What's "FRAPS"? It’s a little program for displaying the FPS (frames per second) I have a question now... does it work in VR? IF it does then I’ll try it.

Regards Steve The framerate counter is a bit too bold for me, but does the job. FRAPS does more than that though, you can record videos and take pictures with it by setting up hotkeys. I used to use it a lot in FSX but haven't done a lot with in in MSFS so far as I have been too busy with other things.

deauxwolf Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) When I open Fraps, I get an error It'll record Sound, no video Win 10 pro I have the latest version of Fraps 3.5.99. When I tried to record a flight in Microsoft flight sim 2004 aka, fs9 or FS2004, I got an error (The custom video player etc., etc., is not compatible with fraps, codecs etc., etc... Then it opens my default programs and says choose one, then: this item was encoded in a format not recognized etc., etc., Is there a work around? I've written Fraps to no avail. https://fraps.com/members.php Ty, ts Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 19042) (19041.vb_release.191206-1406) Language: English (Regional Setting: English) System Manufacturer: Micro-Star International Co., Ltd.

g7rta Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 (edited) Hi, I’ve never used Fraps but the error message says Fraps uses a “custom codec†The problem probably isn’t down to flight sim. Are you using FS2020 as well? If not you might be better asking in the FS2004 forum... but I think all you need to do is download the latest version of VLC Player, as the above error message suggests. The latest VLC will probably have the codec that Fraps uses (it’s the way it compresses the video) You could also use the Xbox game bar. Press Win+G and it should pop up. It’s excellent at recording.... displaying FPS... etc & it’s built into Windows 10 Regards Steve Edited August 12, 2021 by g7rta Intel I9-13900K - Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX - 64Gb DDR5 5600Mhz - Asus RTX4090 ROG STRIX 24GB 3x 43” Panasonic 4k TVs - Corsair RMx 1200W PSU - 2 x 2TB M.2, 2 x 4TB SATA III and 1 x 4TB M.2 SSDs.
