How to record your own video

Download CamStudio [http://www.brothersoft.com/Multimedi...dio_3944.html]. It's shareware with a 2 week trial. Options -> Video Options. Compressor should be on Microsoft Video 1 and "Auto Adjust" should be clicked under Framerates. We will eventually compress the video with XViD, but it's better to do it after recording is finished.

Region -> Fixed Region -> Mark a single table to record.

Use the record and pause buttons as needed. When you are finished, press the stop button and save to an AVI. It should be pretty huge, maybe 500 megs for 20 minutes or so.

Download VirtualDub [http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/], 32 bit edition. Run it and File -> Open video file -> choose your AVI.
Video -> Fast recompress mode.
Video -> Framerate -> Frame Rate Conversion -> Tick "Convert to fps" and enter "15" in the box. -> OK.
Video -> Compression -> XViD MPEG-4 Codec -> OK.
(If that option #isn't there, install XViD [http://www.koepi.org/xvid.shtml.])
File -> Save as AVI -> Enter new file name -> OK.
It will take a few minutes to produce your final video.

Don't have the original link. Saved text onto my PC to deal with later - i don't have webspace so can't post a video at present. I think you either need a website to host it on or find some place that hosts temporarily for free.
