Record Replay Movies?

Is it possible to use a Screen Capture program to record Replay movies? Has
anyone done it successfully? What sort of software have you used?

Thanks for any help in advance.

You can use screen capture and a program to assemble them into an AVI
file or use video out.  I have to check for the name of the program he
used.  Ummm.

We have a video out style Replay of the Week here -> www.scprc.com.  I'm
the one leading for a few laps until Felix passes me :)

Ed,

Even better than that, the rpy2avi program found here :
 http://www.racesim.net/pagpers/balzus/index.htm
Will create a movie directly from a replay. Essentially you
run it, setup the params, click a button to launch GPL
then whilst viewing a replay you press various Function
keys to record/stop/alter record speed (i.e. slomo). Takes
a bit of time but results are very good.

Larry,

Sorry, couldn't tell from your post which sim it was for. I doubt it
will work "as is" with N4 but it's going to be the same principle
I feel. There is also the GPL Movie maker program which I think
you can still get here : http://www.parc-ferme.de/download.htm

This essentially takes sequentially numered .pbf files and creates
a move out of them. Very time consuming I think but may work
with N4.
