You have to convert the AH film to an AVI first. You can do this from the AH film viewer, best to trim the part of the clip you want first, OR you can use Fraps to convert the clip to an AVI.

Tha film viewer has a help function that will walk you through the process, if using Fraps, read the documentation on how to use it.

red  fraps is  a very greedy program even on mine i have to have everything else shut down  for it to work.

dot run anything else  only fraps and ah film viewer whenu want o make  a film.capture it in fraps thn u can go to movie make  and import ther fraps files  then join them togeather.

be warned tho the fraps files will be large  so ones u dont want  best to get rid of after use

Im assuming you have fraps installed. Go to the film capturing part and change the hotkey for recording to something that has NO FUNCTION in film viewer (I use the "R" key). Then uncheck the racord sounds, it is poor qualitly and will make the avis unneccessarily large.

Now close ALL PROGRAMS running in the background. Then open both FRAPS and Film viever (If you want to you can go and change vid settings/anti aliasing in AH game first - for higher quality films, but thats not neccessary).


Open the film you want, play it back at the settings, angle, POV, distance etc you want to - hit your hotkey to record. FRAPS will dump the recorded avis in the folder you designated first. The bigger your window was, the higher res the avi will be (best is to maximize Vievwer for recording).


Now you can play back those avis in the Media Player. But you can also import them into some editing software (like Movie Maker or Sony Vegas) and add sounds, music, effects etc.
