Call of Duty has the ability to record actual in game demos and standstill screen shots. These can be very useful especially if you suspect someone of cheating.
The following files will be stored in the following location: "C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\Main\Demo" or C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\Main\Screenshots" folders.
These demo files are only viewable inside Call of Duty but can be converted to AVI or MPG using some available utilities.
| Task | Syntax | Description |
| demo | /record (any name you want) | This will record a demo |
| stop demo | /stoprecord | This will stop the recording of the demo file |
| screenshot | F12 | Take a JPG screenshot |
| playback a demo | /demo cheater.dm_2 | If you named the file Cheater the this would be the command to play it back |

Binding key will allow you to do a few different things. For one it will allow you to say something on screen without having to type it out, for example a colored message like ^1=LOL=.
Also it can be used to run commands such as displaying the lagometer or displaying your FPS as well as change your name. Basically if the command is available.....you can bind it to a key.
One thing to remember when using custom binds is that the game has default binds and if you overwrite them, you will have to reset the game or re-bind the key.
| Task | Syntax | Description |
| say | /bind 5 say ^1=LOL= | By pressing 5 this will broadcast =LOL= on screen |
| say | /bin 5 say ^1=^4LOL^1= | By pressing 5 this will broadcast =LOL= on screen |
| name | /bind k name ^4Nooblet | By pressing the letter k this will change ur screen name to Nooblet |
| name | /bin k name ^4Noob^3let | By pressing the letter k this will change ur screen name to Nooblet |
| draw FPS | /bind f "cg_drawFPS 1" | Draw your FPS onscreen in the upper right hand corner. To turn them off bind another key using this same command and replace the "1" with a "0" |
| draw lagometer | /bind l "cg_lagometer 1" | Draw the lagometer in the lower right hand corner. To turn them it off bind another key using this same command and replace the 1 with a"0" |
