FRAPS limiting it to the center monitor.

[KogaShuko]

I have been using fraps with BF3 but it is killing my frame rate and filling my storage drive that I keep this stuff on. I do not have time to individually compress each video. I also dont have time to crop each video to get rid of the damn black bars. Has anyone found a way to just capure the center monitor. I would be open to other progies and capture devices. Thanks.

I'm not sure that you can get FRAPS to record just part of a single large surface. I've tried other screen capture programs but haven't had any luck with anything like that.

Try using DXTory - it is a lot better than FRAPS in nearly every situation. What you would want to do, is set it to a cropping of Center Vert + Hort, from 1920 to 1080. That way it only is handling the center 1920 pixels by 1080, or in other words, your center screen.

You can also set it to output to a DirectDraw (camera) and use it to feed into other programs for encoding, for streaming or recording.
