I have been happy with the built-in video grabbing function, but since I "upgraded" to Vista I can't get any of the old codecs to work right. Any suggestions for video codec that works for SL in Vista?

I am using Fraps on Vista works fine - the latest version is labled for vista. Also supposed to be designed to use core duo.

Fraps works out OK, but I don't want to pay the $37 for the full function version if I can get SL's built-in function to work. I wish there was a repository of good codecs in these forums!

Just use SL ingame (horrible -.- really)
avi capture, no compression (faster)
compress with vdub?

Vdub, avi compression

K-Lite Codec Pack , bunch of codecs you can use with SL/vdub
