I'm probably the only person in the world who has this problem, but I'm recording Minecraft at too high of a definition. My latest videos have been over 1080p, which is the highest YouTube will go, so I'm creating unnecessarily large source files to merge into a single video, and a REALLY unnecessarily large final product that takes over 200 minutes to upload on a 2.7 Mbps connection when I'm the only one using it.

For comparison, a comparable length-ed video of Resident Evil, which YouTube classifies as 1080p as well, can be uploaded in 30-50 minutes.

So my question is ultimately this: is there a way to limit what definition I'm recording Minecraft at? This happens both modded with Optifine, and with Nilla client, and I'd like a universal fix. Or is there something I can do through my recording software (I use FRAPS, but I'm open to try freeware).

Thanks!

Minecraft has nothing to do with the recording quality. It's the recorder, tweak the recorder to what definition you wish for it to be in.

I apologize then, as I was under the assumption that that was *mostly* controlled through the video options in Minecraft. Then I rephrase my question: How can I make FRAPS record at a locked definition?

Apologies again lol. This is what I get for straying to far out of my normal neck of the woods xD
