If any streamers could help me out here it'd be epic.

I've been trying to set up a youtube where I just record demos and upload them. At the moment, I've managed to get HD working but only in widescreen and it comes out a bit jerky/meh. My PC is easily capable (I guess/hope :D) of high graphic streaming/record etc (decent quadcore with shit loads of high hz DDR3 and a 1gb ATI 4870) but the result is slightly jerky (mostly because to get the picture quality decent I have to record in widescreen - which is meh).

What I've been using at the moment to do it is QLDT (quakelivedemotools), recording in windowed with fraps and then just sticking into Windows Movie Maker, putting in the HD settings and exporting. It kinda works, but I'm recording in 4:3 (800x600) and exporting in widescreen, so it stretches (which probably contributes to the jerkiness) and it errors when trying to upload to youtube.

Anyway, the general gist is that I want to be able to record 720p in 4:3. Not sure what resolution I'd be using (I guess most streamers etc use 800x600 windowed right?). Also, I've been using fraps and windows movie maker so far and it's alright but am I missing a trick here? Any better tools for the job (really kinda has to be free as well)?

Also, in terms of config, I'd probably want to keep it picmip 0 (or at least a very low picmip, much like walter's vids: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwedzs-OZ3Y). Another thing to add is the idea of the youtube channel is not just uploading the odd QL duel match here and there, but I want to add notable or interesting matches. So I'd be uploading QuakeLive, Quake3, CPMA, QuakeWorld etc. Also not just duel, plenty of TDM and CTF, so any help with Q3 and QW configs would be appreciated (I occasionally play them, but with high picmip and gaming settings, not stream-helpful settings)



TL;DR - I'm making a youtube channel and would like to try and help out with streaming shit live but I have no idea how to set this shit up, so please help :D
