The simplicity to make use of the application by having a simple panel with 4 tabs in which to modify video, audio, bench and screenshot options. The operation of FRAPS is very simple especially for video recording since it does not use any external library nor has high CPU consumption as opposed to other applications for video recording on the desktop.

The interface of the application is very simple and simple, although it is not very nice personally I think it does not need it since it is not an application that needs to be in the forefront constantly since the only thing that is needed from them is to configure the shortcuts that allow to start the recording or the benchmarks.

To say something, what I said earlier is that the interface of the application is somewhat outdated, in later versions you could improve this aspect and make use of libraries with better visual appearance or at least allow to use themes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main objective of FRAPS is to make recordings of the desktop of the operating system and store them in large files, or without any type of compression. The application on its interface is simple and does not have too many options so it allows you to perform your task without too much configuration which is very useful for people with little experience and who only want to make a video of your favorite video game or a tutorial for a friend .

The application has some other options like capturing audio or screenshots but the most useful in my opinion is the one that allows to check frames per second or FPS of our multimedia application or video game so that we can measure the performance and determine if our Equipment is powerful enough or we need to update it.

The only negative point of the application is that you need to pay a license to use it without limits in the times of the videos, the good thing is that the license does not have a very high cost and anyone can afford it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about FRAPS is its simple and intuitive interface that allows any user to use the application in a few minutes and master it completely after using it 4 or 5 times. FRAPS is an application that has several functionalities but that as main function has the video recording directly from our desktop. The videos recorded by FRAPS are of excellent quality because they are created directly from the application buffer and no compression is applied.

The use of FRAPS is also very easy to configure, through shortcut we can start and stop the video / audio recording, screenshots or show the frame count per second (FPS). The use of FRAPS as a benchmark application allows saving the data obtained in a text file to be able to compare them later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the interface presented by FRAPS is very simple and simple to use, it is totally out of date and it is noticeable that it has many years without being modified, I believe that taking into account the few options that the application has, making a new interface should not cost them much. work.

Fraps is an excellent video capture and recording application that I use especially for games or performance tests. The application has a great ability to capture DirectX and Vulkan on Windows.

From the same window we want to record, it is possible to start or stop the recording through a hotkey or a shortcut previously assigned in the application. It is also possible to do this with the FPS counter that we can see live and that measures the application's performance.

Another important feature that can help make the video clearer is not allowing audio recording. This option is enabled by default, so it is recommended to disable it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Video recording could allow for greater configuration, for example, video compression or quality reduction. So that the resulting video files are much smaller. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is quite simple to use due to its simplified interface since it is basically an application for recording video and audio of desktop or applications in full screen as videogames or multimedia, although it does not have a large amount of configuration options I consider that they are not necessary because it is very well optimized by default and I have not felt the need to make changes.

The application generates uncompressed videos with the maximum visual quality, although the size of these videos is a big thing, so it is necessary that later they are compressed using the MKV codec that allows to reduce the size without losing video quality.

In terms of resource consumption, it is very limited since it only uses very little CPU because it does not compress the video. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using this application for several years and I am very satisfied with its operation, honestly I have not found any bug or something that is missing in the application that makes me consider looking for an alternative. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The facility to make use of the application since its interface is not complicated at all and then we can fully understand the operation of the program. Personally I use it mostly to measure the FPS in all kinds of applications such as blender renderings, videos and some video game demo.

As an FPS meter it works very well and I like it a lot because it shows the counter in the corner that we decide and can even be changed through a previously configured keyboard shortcut. The rate of FPS shown is very accurate and I have checked comparing it with other applications so after confirming this I have used this application definitively to make the measurements.

It has no negative aspect honestly, everything works as advertised, the only negative that one can say about this application is that it is paid but everyone has the right to put their application on the Internet as they want, free or paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is one of the tools that we have used for a long time to perform all kinds of tests in applications or video games, Fraps is one of my favorite tools, to test the hardware of computers, and later to know, how to execute it, an application or a video game on this computer, is a completely free application, which has the necessary features to perform this type of performance tests on our equipment, the installation and use of this application, it is supremely simple, any person can use it, and easily determine the operation of your computer, for the execution of different applications and and video games, also has other additional features, such as screenshots in the game, which is a plus for the operation of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features are not completely offered in the free version, so we had to buy the premium version, honestly, I did not know that there was a paid version, since I had always used fraps in the free version, and I must say that the free version lacks Many tools, which has the paid version, which I find a bit annoying, since they offer the free version as a complete tool, and this is not so, the free version can work for casual people and players, but for professionals, they are many of the characteristics that it lacks.

It is a very simple application whose objective is to capture video / images or benchmark applications that use directx / opengl / vulkan. The ease of using the application due to its minimalist interface and which requires little interaction on the part of the user since it only asks us to assign a key as a keyboard shortcut to start or pause the recording of the video.

The quality of the videos created by FRAPS is total as they are videos generated directly and without any type of compression, so your size is also high, since the videos in general must be subsequently edited and compressed by other types of programs. different to FRAPS.

Although I believe that the philosophy of this application is to keep the application as simple as possible, I think it could be updated more continuously to incorporate improvements and keep growing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For several years I have used this application to make recordings of my desktop, mainly for work but I have also used it as a personal tool in my home, one of the reasons why FRAPS is my favorite tool to make recordings of my computer is that it does not consume CPU resources as high as other similar applications and also the results have the highest video quality I've seen so far in an application of this type.

I also like the design of the FRAPS interface which is very simple and easy to understand by any user, the interface is friendly and has the right and necessary options to make use of the functions offered by the application, regardless of complex options that most people do not use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In general I love the application and it does not have any problem related to the actual operation of the application, although if there is any aspect to improve such as the graphic aspect of the interface or the size of the generated videos, I think it could be solved by adding some new options to configure these aspects.

I have been using Fraps for a long time to record different activities such as educational videos, games or tutorials and the best thing about this application from my point of view is the ease that the application has to be used because it does not have a lot of configuration options. high (and this I do not see as something negative, on the contrary).

The quality of the recordings is very good because the default application does not use a very high compression algorithm but it tries to generate videos with the highest quality and therefore its size is usually large, after this the videos They have to be processed to reduce their weight. Additionally it is also possible to show the frames per second of the applications to have information about the performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although I like the simplicity of the application, maybe they could add some option to manage the compression level of the videos so that the video files resulting in the recordings are smaller, in the same way that it is possible to select the quality of the captures in jpg or bmp formats for example.
