Game Cam :) decent video capture utility at last.

I came across game cam the other day and was blown away by how well it works, thought people here might be interested in it. Don't think its all that well known yet. Anyway runs great on my thunderbird 1200 geforce 3 combo. more than 5 times faster than fraps and the game is totaly playable whilst capturing even on my almost 4 year old system :).
Here's a little test video from an indie game we were working on last year captured in .WMV format. 14.5mb

How difficult is it to get Game Cam working with TGE?
Current GameCam version is 1.2.0.16, not registered yet.
Current TGE stable release is 1.3
My Windows Media Player is 10.something
My DirectX is 9.0c
Video HW is ATI Radeon Mobility M6
Do these play nicely together?
I imagine that the GC hotkeys will have to be reassigned because of all the TGE SDK key bindings. Any suggested key assignments?

and here's 2.6mb 21 second video clip captured at 640x480 res on my athlon1200 (no SSE) and 64mb Geforce 3 videocard. I used the default 24FPS setting

I can't capture unless I use the profiler utilty first, this lets you pick an exe and set up your video settings for a capture session. on my card I find I need the brightness turned up. But otherwise its brilliant.
There are some problems wich some soundcards, so thats an area that you may have difficulties with, I think it supports soundblaster cards.
