GPL2AVI works too, but I would try Moviestudio first.

Oddly, the Mac version of Nascar Racing years ago had the ability to save
replays as quicktime movies.
You'd think it would be the #1 way of advertising for Sierra...

Saw a few AVI replays done from LFS over at the LFS forum. They were pretty
nice. Not sure what they used, though you might ask there.

This is the way i do it. Works for any video games...
I have a second computer with a video capture card, and I run the TV Out
port on my game machine's video card to the video in on the capture
machine's capture card.
Launch up some video capture software on the capture box, and when you
play your game it should come up on the capture system if you enable TV
out on your game system.
You asked for "cheap/free" wich this isn't really, but its pretty cheap
if you have most of the hardware already. You can probably find decent
capture cards for $50 or so, and most new video cards come with Video
Out built in.
I never tried having a capture card connected to the video card output
of the same machine its in, but it might work. Would be a nice solution
if you don't have a spare machine.

Moreover, both of 'em crash my PII whenever I try to convert a replay.
Maybe they require more pc resources than my old 450 can give...

Now, how to get the video back into the computer :(
I wish I would have spent $100 more on my Mini-DV camcorder and got one with
analog record capabilities...
What we could use is software that captures the video output before it's
shifted to analog and 'records' it to a avi file.
Kind of like those programs that let you capture RealPlayer streams
internally and save them as WAV files.
