Fraps alternative

Could you suggest an easy to use freeware alternative to FRAPS for recording video in World of Warcraft?
Response by poster: No, Fraps is amazingly fantastic for the 30 second video it lets me make in trial mode.
I'm hoping to avoid $37 to go longer.

You could try kkapture by Farb-Rausch. It's designed to record demoscene demos (which are non-interactive music video style presentations) but may possibly work for WoW in some contexts, but it's unlikely.
Worth a try considering it's free though!

It's been a while since I used FRAPS, but there used to be an older version that didn't have the 30 second limit (though it may have other limitations). I think it may have been version 1.9d.

OK, I Googled about a bit (I promise to do that before answering next time). Fraps 1.9d does not record sound and only supports low res (640 x 480). Does WOW even go that low?
One setup guys like KOiN used to use to make machinima was a digital camcorder attached to the video line out from the video card. If your card supports dual monitors and you have a digicam sitting around, this might be your best option.
