That plays back a demo.

What you do is play a demo and type /video <filename>, which will save the file as an avi (which YouTube should accept).
Why will you folk not ban me? :'(

no need for the .dm_69 part as the client supports only one protocol.

the best way to do it is to run tremulous as such
Code: [Select]
tremulous +demo xxx +video xxx replacing xxx with your demo's name. then go and make coffee and get laid and come back and you should have a big fat AVI file with your demo in it.

take particular note of the big fat part: it'll be *big* (it's motion jpeg). leave at least a few gb of free space depending on how long the demo is and your resolution.

If you have VLC you can turn on stream save then put screen:// in as the source and it will encode it(for old version)
On the new ones select capture device and then select desktop from the capture mode drop down list.

hope that helps if you dont have a crapload of free space
