There are only 2 codecs that seem to record well and they are Microsoft H.263 Video Codec and Microsoft H.261 Video Codec. All the other video codecs cause slow down during recording and when I finish recording it there's slow down during the video too. The two codecs I mentioned above have no slow down during recording. I start the AVI dump and save the file and choose one of those two codecs I mentioned above. Then when I'm done and choose to stop the AVI dump it automatically takes me to the same area to save my file again. So I end up with no video because there's no way to get past that.

have you followed the tutorials in the FAQs ? (look above) it says to encode preferably in a lossless, less compressed as possible, codec, to lower cpu usage while avi dumping. the example given is Huffyuv. yes, since it's not compressed, the files get very big very quickly, but it's safer. check http://tasvideos.org/HowToMakeAVI.html hope it helps. also, make sure you have the latest, rerecording version of the emulator you want to dump an AVI with.
