Do you plan to do live commentary?

What codec are you using in Fraps at the moment?

I can put together some information for you when I have time

I plan to have no commentary and let the video do the talking for me. Think of it as me editing a movie rather than a Let's Play and you're on the right track.

Where would I look up the codec information, Xuul?

Actually I just checked and found out I was mistaken. You cant change the codec in Fraps I was thinking of Bandicam & Dxtory. You should be fine provided you have the harddrive space since the Fraps codec results in big files.

I'll put together something more comprehensive on recording and editing when I get home. 

Did you not get home yet? That's a long day at work.

Here is is: 

Last I checked, Windows Movie Maker doesn't allow good HD video to be exported. It's the reason I caved all the way and bought Avid. But I think Sony Vegas would work just fine.

Rendering my first movie using Xuul's privately messaged tips. It has been rendering about 13 hours and 20 minutes now. There's 5 percent left.

OK . . .

I finally have the video made now at 1920 by 1080.  However says it's too big.  As I want it in HD on YouTube, how do I get the video up on the site? It is currently in AVI format.

I think I have it down now. Uploading stuff now. I will put links to a playlist when I am done but it won't be right away. Don't expect a big "wow" factor with these.
