Does anyone know how to render a fraps video into an acceptable size for an original youtube video? I dont care about 1080p and all that, I just want to get my eyefinity res up on youtube. I know it can be done, i just dont know how. I have sony vegas 10 but if theres other software that works better, lemme know.

Fraps cant record in 5760*1080pixel !

Aspect Ratio works fine with youtube, you don't have to convert the video for that (okay, Fraps video is way to big ^^)

I'm using "Any Video converter" or for GPU decoding "As Video Converter" or "ATIXCoder"



I'm recording Videos with MSI Afterburner, MJPG compression. Full Size, but youtube wont work :(

as you can see here 1080p works fine, but "Original" is just Green :(

Youtube accepts a max of ~4K for width, so 5000+ pixel will fail to transcode.

It also seems to only like 16:9 or wider so dont try 1920x1200 vidoes for 16:10 monitors.

I would personally use H264 & AAC as the codecs, should give the highest quality and smallest file size possible.

I have a tutorial I made just for somebody like you looking to convert FRAPS footage to YouTube without an editor or paid programs.

Things I have learned recently - Only use 3 B-Frames and Disable B-Pyramid YouTube has randomly failed to convert some of my videos and I was able to trace it back to it not supporting B-Pyramid and they seem to recommend a max of 3 B-Frames so I have not tested higher, but with optimal B-Frame use 3 is more than enough.

yeah, I just recorded with FRAPS, (half size only, but it does work to record 5760x1080 full size, but starts to hinder performance a bit much at full size)

Then I encoded with Handbrake and made sure to just keep the original aspect ratio. You can pop-out the video by right-clicking to see it's actually on youtube at 48:9 AR.

Yeah I record half size for eyefinity comes out to be 600vert pixels for me and about 3000 wide and thats more than enough and can upload right to youtube and helps with file size and system resource issues.
