Problems with Action!

[BioAftermath]

First, when I try to record gameplay on WaW it crashes on me even when I've tried everything.
Second, when I record Battlefield 3, my frame rate drops a lot and it becomes hard to play and record a good gameplay.
Third, when I do get lucky enough to get a good gameplay, the bit-rate is to high to view smoothly in Sony Vegas 1, and there is no rendering template that I can use to capture full HD (basically, it comes out looking like crap, even though when I play it back in Action!, it looks good). I', starting to feel that this is a bad recording software and that I should start looking for one that doesn't have these problems.

Do you record Battlefield to the same hard drive where the game is installed and Action! output folder is located?

BioAftermath what format and size are you recording at?

AVI/MP4/MP4I
480/720/1080

I recently became aware of the Export function in action! which is also basically a video converter.
