EDIT: i figured it out myself and i gave a step by step description 2 posts down

i want to make a dvd for the gym tv with Zhasni vids and stuff from youtube,

what's the best way to capture screen footage? for example when people who play online video games make videos of it, what do they use?

thanks,

just wanted to let everyone know that this is what i did:

i downloaded hypercam and this program sucks for doing what im doing. i would imagine that its not so bad if you're making videos about games without intent to make dvds though. but not my thing. anyways,

i downloaded 'free youtube downloader' which allows me to DL youtube vids in xvid AVI format (the other programs, websites only allow FLV so you need further conversion before you can begin the next step, so just get this one)

then i used that program to dl the vids in avi formats

then i downloaded 'ConvertXtoD', this converts the xvid AVI files to (not sure) but it also has the option to immediately after conversion, burn to dvd! so you just insert the dvd after conversion and it does all the work

i had to play with the settings in order to get individual converted avi's to play consecutively without returning back to the menu. its called 'image wall', a setting you can use. then after you select image wall you need to further play with the settings to your liking, if not you're going to be returning to the menu every time. i also put it on a loop so it continuously plays without returning to menu, and i made it so that it automatically instantly plays once you start it rather than starting with a menu

thats what i did
