I've seen a few PvP Videos floating around and I'd like to make one myself. However, I'm not sure what program I should be using. I do have windows moviemaker however that seems to only capture video from other devices other than the computers video card. If someone could help me out or point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Fraps www.fraps.com
Free version comes with no recording of sound but the paid version is fantastic, I've used it to make many movies of Battlefield1942 but not SWG yet. Bear in mind you will need lots and lots of hard drive space. Fraps is VERY hard drive intensive.

Alot. It's in avi to begin with but you can make it MUCH smaller by converting it to something else
*Alot = about 2-5 seconds a megabyte one 15 fps*

I can confirm that fraps is great, if you want to put music over it then the free version is best, Just use a movie editing proggy for the music. Although I highly reccomend the paid version as its much better. 
It will be hard to balance the quality and all the settings at first but keep trying and you will find a perfect setting for movies.
