Screen Capture IOS settings for documentation

Hi There,
I need to have a possibility to capture IOS7 (IPAD.IPOD) screens to make documenation for our engineers how to configure a device for a specific customer.
Its possitble to make screenshots (home key and on/off key) but i want to capture a movie from the settings. Is this possible with a app?
Thanks for you response!

You can do stationary screenshots as you have noted.  However there is no feature that allows the capture of screen movies.
You might be able to do this by using one of the standard cables used for plugging an iDevice into an external TV, but connecting it instead to a video recorder.  But practically it would probably be simpler just to point a smartphone that does video recording at the screen of the iPad.

  • Capturing iOS video for trailers?

    Hi all, this didn't seem to be covered here (maybe I missed it). Just wondering about the best way to capture game/app footage from an iOS app to be used for trailers/promo use? The best way I can figure out is to do an Xcode build and use something like Snapz Pro X on my Mac desktop.
    Any other solutions out there? Thanks!

    That will work if you don't mind using the simulator and PhoneFinger.
    You might try iSimulate which has worked for me in the past and you can always do what the pros do and point a video camera at the screen on the device. Apple uses an overhead camera for tech lectures, etc.

  • Help please with capture / sequence settings for DVCAM PAL 16:9

    Simple question but I'm baffled by choices for capture/sequence using FCP6 to capture 16:9 PAL DVCAM. Have tried esay set up (not enough options) and also sequence and capture settings manually too many options ) and always seem to end up with borders top and bottom, not full viewer / canvas at correct aspect ratio. Can someone tell me correct settings. I'm baffled by inclusion of 5:4 aspect ratio and whether in the compression box under advanced settings in the sequence settings bow I should select 4:3 or 16:9 and in the seq. settings box itself whether I should check anamorphic 16:9.In audio/video settings (summary tab) there's also a question about playback settings which is set to '(missing) apple firewire pal 720x568'. What's that about. Any assistance much appreciated.

    Don't over think it. There's no reason why you should have to modify a capture preset in your situation. Use the easy setup for DV PAL 48 KHz Anamorphic (assuming your footage is anamorphic and not letterboxed). If you're seeing gray bars at the top and bottom of the canvas, hit ctrl-U to have the windows automatically adjusted to the right size. If you're seeing black bars, then your footage is probably letterboxed. You should use the regular DV PAL easy setup to capture that. If the Video Playback device is set to (missing) it's because your deck or camera is not turned on, or isn't connected to the computer.

  • HD capture/transfer settings for multitrack audio project

    I have a video clip on my camcorder hard drive that I want to edit in FCP6. It was recorded in 5.1 surround with the built in mic and I would like to know what capture setting or preset to use so that I can send the audio to Soundtrack and edit the different channel levels so I can lower the levels on all channels except the center channel. The 'Easy Setup' is set for 'all formats' and use custom setup 'NTSC DV', rates are set for all. I've transferred other clips from my camcorder and the audio was captured in LR Stereo, but for this project I would like to edit each audio channel in the 5.1 configuration. I've been doing SD video for quite some time and I'm new to the HD stuff. Thanks for any and all helpful comments and suggestions.

    You can't do it in FCP. I don't know any third party software that will let you convert the 5.1 to work in STP. You might try ClipWrap to see if it works. Sorry I can't help you.

  • Screen Captures from DVD Player?

    I'm using the Apple DVD v3.2, and am wondering if it's possible to catch screen captures (to use for my desk top)....from movies.
    I just read the Quicktime question for screen captures, but that didn't work for the DVD player.

  • HT201361 Can I change the directory where screen capture saves the png files?

    hi:
    screen capture questions:
    1) Can I change the directory/place where the macbook (maverick osx) screen capture it putting the png/images?
    Currently it is going to my desktop and I would like it in another spot.
    2) Can I change the default name to include a number e.g so each screen capture increments by 1 rather than telling sequence by time?
    thankyou

    If you use the Grab.app in Applications/Utilities, you can name the file whatever you want and place it whereever you want. Filenames are not automatically incremented, however.
    The disadvantage is that it saves the capture only in .tiff format, not .png
    But double-clicking on the saved .tiff file will open it in Preview.app, and you can then Option+Save As in .png format in that same folder, or elsewhere.
    Grab.app has some other nice features too, such as selecting a cursor shape to be displayed (or none), and doing a timed screen capture.
    And of course there are other apps...

  • Advice on compressing screen capture movies for web ?

    Hello everyone,
    I just am curious about what is the best way to go for compressing screen captures so that they maintain the best clarity for text. I've gone back and forth between MP4 (improved) and quicktime movies set to h.264... I am just curious what the general opinion here of what is best to use? It seems that MP4 improved produces larger files with less quality... Also it was a little confusing to see that compressor's h264 option is for "apple devices" or "dvd studio pro" and thus doesn't offer streaming as an option as it does with mp4-- so the only way to properly produce h264 files for web is to use the quicktime option and select h264 as it's compression type? Is this correct?

    What is the frame size of your source clip, and what frame size have you chosen for your output?
    Exactly what settings have you tried so far? Please share some details
    I would recommend using the Apple > Other Workflows > Web > Download > QuickTime 7 compatible > H.264 LAN as a starting point.
    Set a frame size (i.e. 1280x800, 1024x768 or 768x480, if you have a widescreen computer display) and adjust the video bitrate accordingly. The frame size you choose, should be divisible by 16, 8 or 4, for best quality. Have a look at this article for more info on that: http://www.flashsupport.com/books/fvst/files/tools/video_sizes.html
    For more info about H.246 and macroblocks, have a look at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264
    For more details on getting the most out of H.264, have a look at the Apple tutorial Creating Amazing Video Content with H.264.
    1. Find the frame size you would like to end up with
    2. Adjust the video bitrate accordingly (set the keyframe interval to automatic)
    3. Enable Frame Controls in the Inspector window, and set the Resize Filter to Better or Best (gives you much better quality on downscaling, than without frame controls - do a test and see for your self)
    An other good tip, is to set an in/out point in the Preview window in Compressor, with a duration of maybe about 10 secs. That way you do not need to encode the whole clip just to test your settings. Add multiple settings, before you submit the batch. When it is done, see which one you think looks the best compared to file size.

  • Correct Flash CS6 iOS publish settings for iPhone?

    My programmer and I are trying to publish an iOS app for iPhone from Flash cs6 and are being rejected because "Your app did not run at iPhone resolution and/or 2x iPhone 3GS resolution when reviewed on iPad. The contents of your app are not displayed within the confines of the screen."
    In Flash CS6 iOS publish settings there is an option to export for iPad Only, iPhone Only, and for iPad and iPhone. iTunes Connect is sending us a screenshot that shows what we see when we publish a development IPA file using the iPad and iPhone setting. But the IPA file we submitted to them was published using the iPhone Only settings which when viewed on the iPad2 shows up inside the little iPhone 1X frame and can be expanded to 2X as well. I believe this is what they are saying is not happening when they do the same.
    Has anyone else who uses Flash had this issue? If so what stage size and what publish settings should be used when trying to create an iPhone only app?
    Thanks in advance, Patrick

    iPhone only app should be published with stage size:
    640x960 for portrait view
    960x640 for landscape view
    ... if the app are going to be fullscreen.

  • Retaining video quality for screen capture export

    I've spent hours searching all over the interwebs and trying every combination possible, but I cannot for the life of me get Premiere to maintain the quality of my video from a screen capture. This is for a software demo video I am making. Here are the settings for the video capture:
    Recorded with ocam screen recorder (http://ohsoft.net/product_ocam.php). This produced decent quality, not perfect, but definitely readable.
    Microsoft MPEG 4 part 3 (.AVI) codec
    1024x768
    30fps
    6000Kbps bitrate
    When I view the files in Windows Media Player or Quicktime they look fine (again, not perfect, but definitely usable)
    However, when I import them into Premiere Pro the preview adds artifacts, especially around black text on white background.
    My sequence settings in Premiere match the original video:
    1024x768
    Square pixels aspect ratio
    30fps
    Exporting produces the same problem, artifacts all over.
    Oddly, sometimes the artifacts disappear, such as when a window is moved with the cursor. Suddenly all the text in that window gets clear for a second.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Over in the PrElements forum, Steve Grisetti (may be spelled wrong) who literally wrote the book http://www.amazon.com/Muvipix-Guide-Premiere-Elements-version/dp/1479311200/ has said that he uses Camtasia for all of the online tutorials he creates

  • Export settings for high quality, high resolution screen cast

    I am trying to use iMovie for editing some software demo screen casts, and while my movie looks dandy in iMovie shown full screen, my final export looks like there is a lot of compression and antialiasing going on.
    I am starting with a 1920X1080 screen capture via iShowU HD Pro, using Animation as the compression type. For final output I am using the Export using QuickTime option, and I have tried MPEG-4 at Best Quality, H.264 with Best Quality Compression and Multi-pass Encoding, and both look pretty bad. Anyone have any recommendations on the best export settings for a screen cast? Especially one that I would ultimately like to make available cross platform as well as via iTunes?
    Thanks,
    Gordon

    I understand iMovie 6 won't compress the import. Everyone complained when apple changed away from iMovie 6 and but a link to download ILife6 (no cost) but they have since removed the link. I am looking for ILife 6 myself to get an uncompressed import if you find it please post so I can get it too, thx dan

    Well, 2:3:#:2 pulldown refers to the way your camera flags the frames while they're recorded, in other words there's not real 24P recording while using tape, because video runs @ 29.97fps ,(what the camera does is to tell to your editing machine that it has to spread the 1st frame over the two first fields the second frame over the next three fields the third frame again over three fields and so on, from there it why it's call 2:3:3:2 pulldown) so in fact to capture true 24P for editing you have to remove the pulldown and remember,if you later are going to edit to tape you'll have to re-apply the pulldown so it prints well to a 29.97 device.
    Hope I was clear enough
