but some people use /cl_avidemo 200

200 is somewhat overkill. I tend to use 30, although if you want slow mo bits then perhaps extend it to 100 (or a more convenient number for your requirements).

I've used cl_avidemo in all of the videos I've made, The President used FRAPS in all of his.

It's down to personal preference, really.

[Drofder2004]

Basic videos will suffice with 30 but I am sure people who want to make awesome editable movies will want a higher number.

The higher the number the more frames per second you movie can be based on.

[matt101harris]

Most movie makers i no use at least 130. But the mojority use 200.

[Drofder2004]

The more images, the more frames per second can be produced.
The more frames per second the higher the quality of video produced (uncompressed obviously)
If you have a lot of frames you can get very slow motion style videos with no choppiness.
