Razor's Video Capture tab lets you record a UO home movie. The recording is saved in your Video folder inside the Razor folder. These videos can be played back later for viewing in your client.
There are two kinds of video styles to record in. The first is a packetvideo, the second an AVI video. While AVI video will give you a better picture, the files are larger and the recording can slow your play speed unless you are on a super computer. AVI is best used when you need a higher quality video. For general pvp and other gameplay recording, packet video is best. All videos are saved in the Razor/Video folder.
If you plan on using this feature, it is highly recommended you set the hotkeys to start and stop recording. If Razor closes (or you crash) before you stop the video recording, the recording will be lost. You must stop the recording before you close Razor, in order to save the recording.
To record a video, click your hotkey to start the packetvideo. Optionally, you can start it from the Razor video tab, or start an AVI recording. When you have what you want, hotkey/click 'Stop'. The video will now be saved for later viewing.
AVI video recording has some extra options found on the bottom left of this tab. FPS is frames per second. The higher the number, the better the video, but also a greater slowing in game play. Resolution is a percentage of your play window.
Once a video is recorded and saved, it can be viewed in the UO window. To view a video, click the 'Open' tab on the right side. 'Close' will close the window and return to real-time game play. Pick 'Play' to play the video and 'Stop' to stop. Speed will allow you to change how fast the video plays.
A small bar underneath shows the video progress.
When you install Razor, you also get the RPV Editor. This can be found from your start menu/Razor. This editor is for cropping videos. Keep in mind, this editor is in alpha stage. It is recommended you copy the video before cropping in case of file corruption due to cropping.
