How do I use Fraps?

[mOeeOm]

I mean, I got it to record videos..30 second ones(I'm on registered), but thats not the problem...they record as HUGE files! Like 200mb...whats up? I've seen wc3 vods before that were 20 min+ but only 50 mb.....how do they do it?

Please suggest a better program to record game videos if they exist.

re-encode the file into a different/smaller format after you finish recording with something like Virtualdub, TMPGenc, Windows Media Encoder, Gordian Knot, etc..
