Well.. I recently attempted to record my SC game so that people could actually see all my actions too.. It worked well except for on small problem.. Over a 20 minute game the file size was 8 gigs.. So I'm wondering, is this possible? Has anyone else every tried it?

The most you could probably compress it to would be one gig, and it would be terribly hard to see...

Divx compression.. or xvid. I'm wondering, what program are you using because all the ones I use lag my computer to... ya.

1- Why would you want us to see a 20 (20!!) minutes video?
2- Did you used fraps or what?
3- Like both, compress it
4- Just make a book of it.

DivX is a good choice, but if you're going to make it 20 minutes long I suggest halving the size (in pixels).

Has anyone else tried to? You haven't heard of VODS (videos on demand), have you? Try resizing it to be half-size and using a good compression method.

Yeah I used Fraps to record it.. Cheese when I use it I experience pretty much no extra lag except for a 1 second loading thing when the game starts. I'm having a lot of trouble compressing as I don't have many high end video editing programs and all the ones I have tried to load it onto have crashed or frozen due to file size.

Sounds like it'd be easier if you just made them buy & install Starcraft and just post a Replay...
