Thanks Dave. Final HDV version is out, should have finished converting and be ready to view in a couple hours. Fixed a few mistakes made in the previous HDV version.

I disagree on your choice of music, but overall it's an interesting AAR/summary-of-mission video!  :aok

Couple of things though: The jitters caused by fraps were really bad. Can be eased by only capturing 1-2 clips, closing fraps down, and starting it up again.

And, of course...

I can't help but wonder at my 190 skin shooting down my b17 skin, and then vice versa. Are you harboring feelings of murderous rage towards me?  :D :lol :rofl

Krusty, I'll soon have a separate 500 gig HDD on which to capture Fraps to, will that make the stutter go away? Main reason is disk space but I was hoping it would help with the stutters too.

And, about the music.

There is no message in the music other than I thought it fit the scenario, and that I like the music in itself. The connection or message you see in the music and the film is all in your heads, that's your interpretation of it, while I created it that way it may be for a different reason that what you see. I'm a liberal, last time I checked liberals aren't nazis. While you may still think they are, and you're free to think so in a free country, I really don't have much sympathy for them other than as humans and individuals. Still, I get a lot of disrespect from hardcore allied pilots for flying only german iron. It's rarely openly expressed, but you can feel it's there. Just because JG11 use the emblems of the LW, sometimes even swastikas yes, does it make us nazis? Get over it, is my message. WW2 is not, was not, our war, it is part of our history. A history which I mean, we share together and should learn from. War is hell, and I respect any man who live through it with his wits somewhat intact.

My grandfather and his brother did survive the war, a war they did not choose to be part of, a fight they did not pick. They fought for their own country, nevermind the uniform they wore. There are as many stories of WW2 as there were men and women fighting it. So step off your ego trips and learn the lesson our grandfathers did the hard way!

Sorry, I missed your response!

I don't know if the hard drive will fix the stutters. It seems to be more an issue of memory leaking in either the film viewer or in fraps itself. I tend to lean towards fraps being the culprit.

You have to set up the shot you want, get fraps running, capture it, maybe capture another, but 3 is pushing it. Then shut down fraps (and maybe the AH film viewer) and restart and continue where you left off.

It helps to have your edits planned out ahead of time, so you know exactly what you'll want and you can get it.

Fraps is causing those stutters?

Weird, because I can use fraps for a hour ago, but it's always the same parts of the film that have stutters when recording with fraps.
Yet I never get any stutters when recording while playing the game!

I believe it's the film viewer and not fraps.

The film viewer does that to me also, whether fraps is running or not (although not quite as bad).  I have a second hard drive and recording to it does not help.  When I slow down the speed in the film viewer, it does not stutter at all.  So, when I record I slow the speed down to 50%, then speed it back up in the editing software.

I believe it is the film viewer and not fraps also.
