The latest Fraps 2.9 release adds support for Vista and DirectX 10 games. With games starting to appear using DirectX 10 graphics we are happy to report that benchmarking, video capture, and screenshots are now all fully supported for these titles.

Vista also includes a rewritten audio subsystem. Fraps can take advantage of this and directly record a sound stream from the machine without requiring any support from the soundcard driver. This allows you to capture ingame audio even if you are using a USB headset or other audio device which does not normally support a "Stereo Mix" or "What U Hear" recording input.

Since the Vista Desktop Window Manager (DWM) runs through DirectX we have also added a new option to monitor the desktop under Vista. You can now take screenshots and record video from the desktop just like any other game or 3D application.

Changelog:

• Fixed Direct Stream sound recording with 5.1 speaker configuration
• Fixed World Of Warcraft crash if Alt-Tab pressed while recording
• Fixed startup error under XP when Alky installed
• Fixed DX10 support when DXGI_PRESENT_TEST flag used
• Fixed function keys not responding in FFXI
