Hey guys, does anyone have the old files for the pldx recorder? Just wanna see if that’ll work on my computer as the new one doesn’t. Just whack ’em up on megaupload or something if you do. Thanks alot :)

If that doesn’t work, perhaps you should try just using the cfg versions.
Also, what’s wrong with your pldx? May be able to help.
http://www.imagebanana.com/view/m7fpp1qy/odear.jpg just says that whenever i try to run tf2 with it
The one I linked (0.55) was the newest of the ‘old’ ones and doesn’t receive that error that you get from version 1. I don’t know why it happens but pldx version 1 just doesn’t want to work from anywhere but the desktop.

Right that’s all sorted, just one more question, when i hit f10 to record, it brings up a box but if i choose full frames, it basically just makes the sound lag out and the recording too. Does anyone know a fix to this?
Best thing to do is record with tga. The sound will lag out, this is normal, (well, at least for me it is!), and the frame rate will appear to slow way down as well. The higher the frame rate you record at, the longer it will take to record. This is normal too.
Your computer is saving each and every frame in full graphical quality so it slows right down. Be patient.
Load up VirtualDub, go to open file and select the first a1_000001 file and you’ll see an image of that file appear.
Go to Audio, select audio from another file and pick a1_wav.
Go to Video, Frame rate and select the same rate as you recorded at. If you want to make a slo motion clip then you can dub a 120FPS recording at 60FPS and it will be half speed.
Go to Compression and choose the lagarith lossless codec, downloadable from pldx.
Now, an important bit, look at the frame rate conversion panel. You’ll want this set up so the number of frames left matches your final render rate. So if you record at 120fps and you’ll be rendering at 30, it’s best to process every fourth frame as 120/4 = 30.
If you record at 60 and render at 60 then you process all frames…you get me.
Then select save as avi from the file menu, give it a title and sit back for a while as it makes your avi clip that is then editable in vegas or whatever.
Takes time, but this will give you perfect quality with reasonable file size.
Good luck.

Hello, I have the same problem. PLDX says the folders exists. I re-extract into my destokp but it doesnt work. I need rec with new pldx.And i dont want use a config.
PLDX says the folder exists, is there eliminate anything?
HELP ME! please
Hmmm, I’m not too sure what you mean. I just have VDub as a separate program. I dont use the pldx tool to run vdub.
Makes life a bit easier imo.

Go to “C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/steamapps/Account/team fortress 2”
Check if there is a folder called Play… just rename it, start pldx again and enjoy!

I recommend to just make an avi in VirtualDub without sound. Then open the video file in Sony Vegas Studio and add the audio manually.
Reason: If you type “startmovie” into you console you still have to press escape, the frames are already capturing but the audio isn’t. So if you add the audio in Sony Vegas and you zoom in on the timeline you will see the the audio is a bit shorter then the movie.
Fix: Move your audio to the same and of the movie. Then drag the beginning of the movie to the beginning of the audio, then its fully synced!
