I've noticed a few people have made video-demos of their games that include the game's sound effects - how have you done this? I use Camstudio but won't allow any audio unless it's from the speakers, which then picks up the keyboard tapping. I could use a joypad but the audio still isn't great.

Any ideas or advice?

You could get a video camera and record your screen.

Fraps works well for me, but you'll need to be using HWA or Vista. Aside from CamStudio, I think most other screen recorders will record from the "default device" so it's just a matter of finding the best one in terms of video.

Fraps does a good job, alternatively you can whack an audio wire out of the audio output (green) and back into the microphone (red). Then just make sure the volume is set to the right level and record!

You can always record the audio separately with something like audacity, and later put it to the vid

Camtasia Studio (or at least the evalutation version) doesn't do this, but it records the sounds of keypresses. I mean WTK?

I think the problems with recording sound are caused by bad/incompatible sound drivers. I can't record sound in game with any video capture software ive tried and haven't really found a decent solution yet. Since I use mod music i usually just convert the mod to a wav then add it to the video manually.

If you have access to another computer you could try doing the screen capture on that instead just in case you get better luck?

I do what Adam said on purpose sometimes actually, to keep certain musics and effects secret.

Hmm, mostly useful ideas. I think the best solutions i've seen are from OMC and Nick (Fraps) and Hayo (recording audio seperate and combining) so i'll try those - cheers dudes!

Right click on the speaker icon in the Windows Taskbar. Select "Recording Devices" and check that "Stereo Mix" is enabled.

Go to Options in CamStudio and select "Record Audio From Speakers"

Then go to "Audio Options" and select "Audio Options for Speakers"

Select from the drop-down list "Stereo Mix"

That should do it, I would hope.

I'm using Camtasia 3. Everything works perfectly, except for the fact that it doesn't record anything. I can set it up to record, and get no error messages throughout the entire process, but when I click "Stop recording" it shows a blank preview window. Anyone know a fix for this?

Try adjusting the video-type to record in (eg. DivX, microsoft Video 1, CineForm HD Codec, etc.) - it worked for me using Camstudio
