When recording videos of your Minecraft experience, you will often face problems like:
bad video quality
huge files that have to be compressed afterwards
bad ingame performance
expensive, limited or complicated tools
watermarks
Here are the minimum stats you MUST have in order to get any kind of decent results (results may still vary though):
Laptop:
Minimum:
At LEAST 4GB of DDR3 RAM
At LEAST an Intel Core i5-2430M
NVIDIA 400M or above, AMD equivalent
Recommended:
At LEAST 6GB of DDR3 RAM
At LEAST an Intel Core i5-2500M
NVIDIA 560M or above, AMD equivalent
Desktop:
Minimal:
At LEAST 3GB of DDR3 RAM
At LEAST an Intel Core i5-2000
NVIDIA 500 series or above, AMD equivalent
Recommended:
At LEAST 4GB+ of DDR3 RAm
At LEAST an Intel Core i7 (you might get away with a high i5)
NVIDIA 550 or above, AMD equivalent
Real systems:
1) Laptop
6GB of ram Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 520 @ 2.40GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.4GHz Good to great quality
2) Unknown 8GB ram AMD FX 8120 radeon hd 6870 Unknown quality
Please note that even if you do not have the exact minimum system requirements, you can still run it, however you will most likely experience lots of lag. The GPU's are not required GPUs, just minimal I'd personally try it with. (You may still try it with a lower though)
Also, PLEASE if you use the mod, post statistics on your hardware, and a video of you recording for testing purposes.
MineVideo is an attempt to solve these problems. It is a mod, that enables you to record ingame footage with the touch of one button. It's as easy as taking a screenshot and the resulting video files are small enough to quickly upload them to YouTube. IT REQUIRES FORGE!
When you are in the game, simply press F4 to start the recording. A plop will be heard, and you are recording!To stop recording, press F4 again. A message will appear that shows the filename of the video and audio you've just created.
The videos can then be found in the videos folder in your minecraft directory (similar to the screenshots)
When you press F6, a new GUI appears, with options for MineVideo, such as video file output, and audio file output.
New slick GUI!
Finally,
Updates:
MineVideo V1.4: Main Link! (curse will now have all of the updates, check there or here for new ones) (mirror)
Install like a regular mod. Drag the folder into mods.

You shouldn't get that anymore.
If you get the recorder only recording the lower bottom corner of the screen, restart MC, and set the size of the window on the LOGIN screen.
Hint if you get an UnsatisfiedLinkError: Check PATH variable for xuggle_home, make sure it doesn't have 2 values, after that, reboot.

These are ideas for features that might be added in later versions of MineVideo
If it doesn't work, use this error report:

What haven't you tried:
Soundcard Brand, use dxdiag when you press start for windows:
Yes, plus I had to make a linux and mac version. :tongue.gif:
How about making different download links for mac, windows, and linux? It might reduce the file size. I think. I dont know anything about these things, so yeah.
Hm, so I've installed the mod by following the directions (put the 3 class files in minecraft.jar, all jar files in bin folder and installed the xuggle thing) but pressing F4 does absolutely nothing. I am using vanilla Minecraft, have deleted META-INF, am using 1.8.1, and well yeah. Does it require ModLoader or something? (Using Windows by the way and installed from PC folder of the zip).
Yeah, I did the exact same thing but nothing happens when I press F4.
Oops, it says it requires ModLoader in the first post. :tongue.gif: I'll try again!
EDIT: Still doesn't work, only now, when F4 is pressed, up comes the dreaded "Saving Chunks..." screen and Minecraft crashes. With this hassle at the moment, I'll be sticking to good ol' FRAPS.
I tested it, and it crashes to the "Saving Chunks" screen. The log appears for .1 second, so I can't copy it, or read it...
Yes I installed Xuggle, and set the variables. :smile.gif:
I guess that's why it's a "pre-release" :wink.gif:
I have a 2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, an NVIDIA GeForce 320M, running OS X Lion (10.7.2).
If you want more, just ask! :tongue.gif:
I'd be glad to help you! :smile.gif:

This is my problem as well.
Same here. Cant get the error though, flashes too fast. :tongue.gif:
Click or it will die!
Sound card?
