From what I remember reading around here, the "Make Movie" function is unreliable or not working at all.

I think most of us are now relying on external apps for movie making, using stuff like FRAPS or open-source alternatives like Taksi.

The internal client movie function is borky. Find a good third party screen capture application and all should be well.

Yeah, what they said. FRAPS.

And, speaking purely from experience, don't forget to do your homework. Take advantage of all the great stuff on Machinima online. I wish I had.
