Who has good experience with what software? Want to make simple videos of my experiences in SL to begin with and go from there.
And I see on the SL interface itself under 'file' the possibility to record movies to disk but I cant get it to do anything.
Thanks.

Fraps is a good programme for most things, personally I prefer HyperCam, as it allows for creating a screen region window of any size, and using a hot key, you can drag it about realtime, about the screen. It has quite a few other functions such as defineable cursor behaviour and captures sound in quite a few formats. Download a free trail here http://www.hyperionics.com/

So it all worked, and I've posted several clips, but how do I improve the quality of the what shows up on youtube? Short of doing all the experiments myself, can anyone suggest ways to improve? I have Fraps, use Windows movie maker and then upload. Thanks, ~Jenni~

That certainly provides high quality, but it does require the DivX Web Player, which not everyone will have (and there is no Linux version it seems). For a straight Flash player site, I use http://www.vimeo.com/ - the videos are larger, and of higher quality than YouTube and Google Video I find. It also lets people download the source file directly and the interface is much nicer than either's. My profile on Vimeo
