Almost everything we do will ultimately teach us something, even if it is subliminal learning.
I guess to capture game-play, one needs software that does video-capture of your screen and preferably captures sound as well. I've never done that myself and haven't looked for any free software that does it well. What are you using?

I run Windows 10 on my laptop, so there are Xbox-related features built in, including a recording tool that can be accessed by pressing Win+G. What sucks is that the raw recording consumes over 600 kb of hard drive space per second of video. For long videos, I use the Photos app (built-in to Windows 10) to split it into smaller parts. Then I use a freeware program called Handbrake to compress my videos into a more manageable size without sacrificing too much quality.
My next step is based on a good suggestion I received from a viewer -- find a program with which I can easily edit my video so that I can speed up the action in certain parts of the video as necessary.
Good old Handbrake! Love it.
I just learned about a semi-professional video editing software called Davinci Reslove. My operating system (Win. 7) may not be able to run it (not within specs.) but I may try it anyway and see if it will even run on my machine once I do a complete back-up of my hard drive. There is a simpler software called VSDC. Both are free to use. I've used VSDC and you need to be real careful about which PART of the video you are working with since editing happens on pop-up windows and if you are not careful about where you are, you can end up putting a title over the entire video when you think you are working with a single scene. Other than that, its pretty intuitive and not too complicated; unlike Davinci Resolve, which looks extremely complicated because of all it is capable of doing. Because I'm running Win. 7, I'm actually still using an old version of Windows Movie Maker, which is really simple to use, but also quite limiting in what you can do with it.
Cool, I'll have to give both of them a look. Thanks for the info!
My pleasure. I enjoy sharing.
