My guess would be to hit print screen repeatedly, then save activity at that location and move or rename those files in the MSTS folder and try to do it where you were before getting more screen shots. You can take those images and go into Animation shop (after converting them to jpg or gif) and make an avi there. If there's another way of doing it (hopefully easier), I am very interested about seeing it, I'd like to do it as well. Is it possible to use a video camera itself and do a clip without glare and what not or seeing the edges of the monitor? I don't know, but that's probably the most impractical of solutions.~chuckle~ Remember Poirot, Je suis une femme ditzy!! And proud of it

Many video cards have S-video or video composite out. Just an adapting cable, eventually, and the recorder is easily attached (no camera needed). Someone in the past asked about importing MSTS image directly into a video-editing program. That's more difficult, because that programs are designed with already done media files or direct video sources in mind. Moreover, with both MSTS and the other program both running, problems are guaranteed. Better to recorder MSTS image separately and then re-import it again for editing. Unluckily, I'm afraid the video out is only for the video card signal out, while a specifically designed video card/interface is needed for reimporting the recorded signal in.Link found!: http://www.train-sim.com/dcforum/DCForumID1/2071.html
