http://www.virtualdub.org/ can do what you ask, but it's like pulling teeth.

Does it lag?

What is the interface like?

And most of all, can it go to about .15 between clips?

I can find out for myself

Edit: Hope it works, kirby teh jackass just stole my computer

Low resource, it can do practically any timing you want. The interface is a bit painful...

Then stop. Stop now. The only other one free I've found that's as easy as Vdub is called MediaCoder; I'm too lazy to fetch a link.

o.0, Easy,

I catch on twice as fast as an "average" person, it won't be a sweat

Edit: This will be a timelineish/fighting kinda thing, it will focus on robots mashing the shit out of each other in a fighting ring, expect cool effects, like ahhh, I won't release anything else....

Don't need to spoil how cool I'm gunna make it, go to the topic New Mod for more info on the storyline

if you find out whats the best codec to use with the spring-moviecapture thing, please tell me. I always end up with supermegalag and 10GB files :/
Windows Movie Maker 2 is free and very easy to use if you have no previous experience.
There is also Camtasia Studio which is shareware, but the older versions might be free (?)

No, WMM2 goes down to 1 second clips, I need .15 or so

And yeah I got exp with it...

I made an anime music video and everyone that saw it thinks its great

Knorke, try fraps...

Might help if you need to capture only a small portion

DivX5 works nicely for me. Bit jerky when first played, but that clears up fast.

In VirtualDub I can record video from external sources but i don't get a "device" for the screen.

Can anyone help?

Edit: oh - sorry - got that right
