What game video recording software you prefer?

Question is simple: what is "the best" game video recording software for you and why?

Looking for one myself but having problems with getting sould to work, could it be Vista`s fault?

You might wanna try out Taksi, an opensource alternative for fraps. I'd recommend either of those.

Xfire. Nice `n solid with decent optimization. It`s free to use also without recording limit like fraps` trial version.

I would be interested in Taksi, do you know if it works with Vista? The indication on the site is that it may have been release a before Vista was.

It has come a long way. There`s even upload feature for recorded videos. Size should be therefore pretty small atm.

I use fraps and it suits my needs, but I don't record much. It'd be nice to have some insight from the pro's like JamHot on what he uses.
I might have tried the X fire one but
