There are two new recording methods that will be supported under R3.

The first is a raster recorder that makes uncompessed AVIs. It's built-in the R3 B1 engine already and can be toggled on/off by pressing CTRL-F12. The screen size will be forced to 640x480 and the avi file will be stored in the current project folder. I believe the frame-rate is currently capped at 30Hz. Be ware that this is an uncompressed avi and will grow to quite a large file on the hd quite quickly. Window's MovieMaker is good for quickly converting that to a much smaller wmv file, or use virtualdub for doing more serious stuff.

The second is a vector recorder. This records amost everything that occurs in a simulation to a text file that can later be played back for viewing. The difference is that the "playback" is a live simulation that can be viewed from novel vantage points. See the attached sample files for an explanation on using the vector recorder.
