Master has given Dobby a doctorate! Dobby is free!

I have a replay saved on my computer, but no way that I know of to convert it to a .mp4 or format otherwise viewable by a computer without starcraft, or a .rep viewer [some can be found on the internet]. Searching both SEN and google turned up nothing at all, which tells me two things:
1) that nobody has a converter [unlikely, especially since I'm sure I'm not the first person who has thought of this],
2) that .rep files are impossible to save as .mp4 or similar format,
or [and most likely]
3) that this is a problem so elementary that I'm overlooking the basic premise of it [much as someone new to scmdraft might not know how to use the text trigedit instead of classic trigedit].
If anyone could provide a link to the converter I would appreciate it.

The tools you'll need:

StarCraft, you can find that here:
C:\Program Files\Starcraft\StarCraft.exe

FRAPS:
http://www.fraps.com/download.php

Generic video to mp4 converter:
http://google.com/search?num=100&q=convert+mp4+free


In case you didn't get my joke, what you are asking to do is equivalent to turning a text file of lyrics into a mp3 song.



None.

IIRC, .rep files tell the AI what to do, in order to replicate the game. They aren't actually recorded videos, which is why replays glitch very often.



None.

Symmetry shouted: I did my first EUD thing today. Feels like me finding arsenal at age 8 again
haha for sure. in some ways it's even more exciting because you can play EUD maps on regular battle.net, don't need to convince someone to download your mod to play with you. what did you do?
