Screen and sound capture software > 25mins

CrinkElite · 2010-07-01 12:39:15

Hi folks I need to capture a 25 minute piece of film with sound. Does anyone know of any free/shareware software that could do this practically? Any input is much appreciated.

Best known Open Source one is probably VirtualDub. Not sure if it can work without a dedicated capture device though.

Windows media encoder is easier to use but only does 10 minute segments but perhaps you could merge the segments together again afterwards?

thanks marco, had a quick look at virtualdub but it doesn't seem to be exactly what I'm looking for, I'll have a look at that microsoft doodah later when i get a chance.
