How to capture computer screen to video
« on: January 07, 2010, 06:58:04 »

why do you record the computer screen?
"How to show my gameplay to my friends?", "Can I use some program to record my Webcam chat?" When you have problems of these, you may need a tool to capture your computer screen activity and save it to a video file.

Besides the case we mention above, you will need to record your computer screen in following scenarios.
Screen demos.
Training videos.
Teaching videos.
Animated tutorials.
Animated presentations.
Animated help files

Do you need a camera or camcorder to record the computer screen?

If you want to record every click of what you have been doing on computer, camera is not the only choice.
Because a camera or comcorder in front of your computer to record your screen is not practical with the following reasons:
1. It can not record the screen precisely.
2. The resulting video will be fuzzy.
3. The recording is not easy to edit.
4. The video file is too large for web sharing and transmission

Computer screen recorder is what you need.
You could use some screen software to record desktop screen to video, and save as avi,wmv,swf,flv format,which could upload to Youtube and other blog or video share website immediately.Also, the record video file size is much less that the camera.

Either a very helpful first post. Or a spammer.

That's what I thought,

Maybe the Admins/Mods should check just in case.

But, if it is genuine!, my biggest apologies mokdeeo, and Welcome to the Forum - And thanks for your advice.

Problem with anything I have to buy on line. My card doesn't work on internet transactions...

Even if it did, I'm saving all my money for a car...



EDIT: If I had the money, I'd buy Camtasia (http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia/screencasting/defaultb.asp?gclid=CMC94LPmkZ8CFZQA4wod0navJQ)...
