Fraps works perfectly for me.

Somebody needs to make  sticky explaining stuff like this. It clogs the forum with useless shit.

try a reinstall of soldat. then restart your comp. if that doesnt work make a thread in bug reports and give all the info about your system and explain everything very completely. btw i dont see why this is in this forum area..

Sometimes theres retarded errors in demos...

Heres what you do for making demos into movies: (bmpextractingisslowandcrap)
1. goto www.fraps.com
2. look up information
3. find a free version of fraps

if you want to extract bmp from demos, read the manual
Quote
- Soldat.exe -demo name (freecam speed notexts extract)
(runs the game and plays the demo specified by name. Optional paramaters are:
freecam (0/1) - the user can freely change the camera (default 0)
speed (0-...%)- how quick the playback will be specified in percents (default 100%)
notexts (0/1) - no texts, menus or cursor will be displayed during playback (default 0)
extract (0/1) - extracts the demo to BMP files (default 0). Later they can be used to make an AVI file in a program like "Bmp2Avi".
The sound can be extracted with a program like "Total Recorder". Please note that this can take time and is not recommended on slower systems. For better results specify lower speed (like 50%).
example:
Soldat.exe -demo demo12
Soldat.exe -demo demo19 1 200 1 0

This wiki article might help you out on how to play and extract demos using those parameters.
