Some quick things when posting videos
Massacre Intro:
http://www.mediafire.com/?j7a9s3neq2w9owm
The intro is currently a WMV file, I can convert it or resize it for you if needed, just let me know.
Recommended Tools for recording:
FRAPS: http://www.fraps.com
OR:
Dxtory: http://dxtory.com/v2-home-en.html
Dxtory is more customizable but I still prefer FRAPS personally.
Tools to edit/make the actual video:
If you want to stick to free applications:
VirtualDub: http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/ (used to edit/merge videos)
Audacity: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ (used for the audio editing portion)
If you want to try a really good commercial application, I recommend this one:
TMPGEnc: http://tmpgenc.pegasys-inc.com/en/product/taw5.html
This is the one I use for all of the vids I posted, works very well and has many options you can customize.
With FRAPS:
-Use Full Screen
-60 FPS
-IMO don't display the FPS in the video, it just makes it look messy.
Try to do HD if possible, personally I do 1080p but 720p works fine too.

if someone has the time/resources to edit videos would they be interested in putting together multi view videos?? I can fraps as well (not sure about the whole decoding thing) so we can get some interesting videos made

Would be great if you could make a 1080p version of the intro in AVI format. That's what I've been using for my videos so it would make it easier for me.

Start with byle but if needed I can help out with this as well, like Byle said it's best to use AVI in HD format (720p or 1080p). The other issue would be getting access to the files once you record it, so you would also need to transcode the files and change it *from* the FRAPS codec to something else like XviD so that it decreases the size of the file and makes it easier for you to upload.

Oops, sorry I missed this. I don't have the source file actually but I'll see if I can locate it from our resident lock who made it and get it.

I fraps most every raid (for review of what went right and wrong), but between my UI and the low quality it's difficult to use as a guide. If someone could volunteer to record at least 1 clean kill that would be great. I'll record a strat guide (audio) to go with it, demonstrating all the abilities used and what not. We can then use it as an internal guide for new raid members.

I'll Fraps all the bosses in SoO, though I won't post kill videos except for Heroic modes.
