Hi, in these cases I actually use a desktop recording package and play both games in Windowed mode, then trim off any residual window edges in Sony Vegas. Any packages work, although I used SnagIt. It's not the best, but it does the job. I also use this to record games like Transport Tycoon Deluxe (openttd) where recording through Fraps is not supported.
However, in order to maintain a high quality recording I usually cut the video at the point of switching to recording a different program. It's a real botch-job to be honest but I don't have enough time to make it more beautiful and since Fraps is a wonderfully high-quality and generally efficient package, I'm much more comfortable using it as much as possible, specially if I know the fight is going to be 10 minutes long, or I accidentally forget to turn it off and end up recording several hours of afk.
