Well, there's two methods (there's more, but these are the most used ones) of record movies in AVI, MPG etc.

The first one is to use the ingame method to record a lots of screenshots (cl_avidemo).

The other one is to use a 3rd-party program to record with. For example Fraps
Using Fraps is very easy and gives a good result. But the filesize gets very big when you are recording with Fraps, so you need to compress it with Divx/Xvid or another codec.

But for the first method (cl_avidemo) you need to spend some more time, but the result is better (I recommend using this method).
When you are watching your demo with this command set to 30, a lot of .TGA files will be saved in your Main/screenshots folder.
You need to convert them to .JPG files. Use Reaconverter Pro for this job. (If you dont want to convert 5 files in a row, PM me and we will sort it out :P )

Then you got a bunch of .JPG files, and you need to put all of them together in a moviefile. Use JPGVideo for this job. After you got the moviefile, you can edit it in whatever edit-program you like, such as Vegas, Premiere, Avid FreeDV etc.

Some useful links:

Avid FreeDV
Sony Vegas trial
Reaconverter Pro
JPGVideo
Fraps

Hope this helps :D

Well, most of this programs is free/free trials. The only program I could think of thats handy to register/buy, is the ReaConverter. And if you want to fix it, just PM me :P

umm :lol: i have made binds so i can slow down the demo or make screenshots BUT when i press one of those buttons then i get to see the menu :? and i have to press "back to game". if i don't use binds i have to get console down and type every thing and that cost time and you see the console in the demo. Does somebody umm has a idea. (and thanks again for helping me the first time :wink: )

I'd love to make a CoD movie, but my pc sucks so much and has barely any free space :(

Ah ok, had me worried for a second there. I think I'll go play around on my $649 version of Adobe Photoshop CS2, which I purchased of course :roll:
