Recording mame commentary?

[virtvic]

How would I go about recording a mame game with me giving commentary via a usb microphone at the same time?

I want to be able to do this so I could include some videos for our Podcast with me telling how to play the game.

Surely there is a software capture solution to this.

I have a hauppauge HD PVR but I think that is going way overboard to do what I want to do.

Maybe I could use Audacity for the audio while playing mame in a window and some other software to capture the video, then just mix the audio & video after?

I'm a total noob at this sort of thing...

The easiest software to use for this type of thing in my opinion is Snagit. It will grab either a region of your screen or the the entire mame window and record both system sound and a mic if you have it plugged it. You can then upload directly to youtube!

Infact Fraps is a better option because it does really good quality videos. The videos with Snagit are a bit jerky. I had no problem recording via mic and the game sounds using Fraps. Plus you can assign a hotkey to start and stop recording

Here you go bud. Good quality video, even at half size:
