Need help with fraps/minecraft - After editing videos become low quality...

[TheRandomMan1000]

I recorded a MC survival games video earlier today using fraps, and edited with Windows movie maker. It turned out extremely grainy and low quality. I've recorded and edited other games uing fraps and WWM but none have come out this badly. Why is this? Also, I have a very nice computer that runs minecraft at full settings with no lag, so it has nothing to do with my in-game quality. Thanks ahead of time

What did you save your video as? This could easily lead to your why your dilemma has taken fold... Otherwise I wouldn't know.

I fixed it! Video is uploading now. I had to install Windows Live Movie Maker
