How can I record a QuickTime video clip of in-game action?

I've seen video reviews of games from time to time that show actual video clips of a game being played. The ability to record video clips of a game would come in very handy for me, because I'm experiencing a bug in the graphics of Call of Duty 2 that I would like to record and send as a file to Aspyr. However, I'm not sure how to record a movie of the game. (A screenshot is not sufficient.)
Can anyone give me an idea of what software to use to do this? Or do I just have to film my computer screen using my digital camcorder?
Thanks!

Like Mr. Napoli wrote, Snapz Pro X is probably your best bet.
It's made by Ambrosia Software, and at only $69.00 -- for it's quality -- Snapz Pro X isn't very expensive. I haven't purchased it yet, but I've used the demo. It's easy to use, with a lot of customization available. You can download a free demo from the right side of the main Snapz Pro X page here [ http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/ ] or purchase it from a link on the same page.
I would suggest downloading the free demo and trying it out, then deciding if you'd like to purchase. Any video recorded in the demo has a blue watermark "Unregistered Version Of Snapz Pro", but I believe that the demo is fully functional.

  • In the iMovie 11 event library, how can I get the iPhoto video clips to combine with my camcorder pics listed below and in chronological order?

    Try forcing iPhoto to load the Library on the External Hard drive by launching it while holding down the Option key. Choose the Library on the External HD, and quit iPhoto, see if iMovie can see the Library with the iPhoto Videos contained inside.

  • Can I record a we video clip ?

    Can I record a wee video clip using i photo?

    Hi
    Run your mouse along the Dock. Do you see Photo Booth? If you do launch it. You should now be looking at yourself. Below the main window is a section that has 3 icons to the left. One of the icons looks like a small clip of film. Click on this. The Icon in the middle (the red one) turns into a what I think looks like a film camera icon rather than a camera icon. Click on this. You'll now get a countdown of 3 seconds. A timer display will appear to the left of the moving screen. When you've recorded enough click the middle icon again to stop recording. A file of the clip you've just captured will appear in the bottom panel.
    Click and hold this clip and drag it to the desktop. Quit out of Photo Booth. Launch your preferred mail application and add the movie clip as an attachment.
    Your only problem I can see is making sure you keep file sizes down as most ISPs will limit attachment sizes to 15MBs or less. A 1 minute video clip using Photo Booth is approx 3.5MBs.
    That's as simple as I can make it.

  • I just recently upgraded to iMovie 10.0.1.  Now whenever I import video longer than 30 minutes, it automatically splits it at 30 minutes.  How can I get my entire video clip at once without a break again?

  • How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 62...

    How can i rewind Or forward video clip in Nokia 6230i. plz help me out. thanx in advance.
    Haris

    Hello.
    Fast forwarding and rewinding video on the 6230i is not possible as far as I remember with experience with several Series 40 phones. The proprietary Nokia OS runs a multimedia player incapable of doing this feature. I also have never heard of a certain compatible Java-based media player application which can do this. Maybe the architecture of Series 40 does not support advanced software features allowing this. However if you really want to watch using your phone, you cannot be able to fast forward or rewind.
    Cheers.
    PS:I am not really sure about this though; just a quick opinion. How about some ideas from other 6230i users?
    The world might be a better place if you were I.

  • How do I get a quicktime video clips to go into my itunes?

    Hi I have the latest version of itunes and quicktime ( Version 7.1.3) but I can't get itunes to play my quicktime video clips. I've tried dragging and importing them in but nothing happens. If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi thanks for the help. But I was hoping that I wouldn't have to download or have to convert video files. I have a quicktime video in my itunes now but it was a while back when I added that I can't remember how too. Is there a easy way to do it or will I need to convert the Avi.files to something else? Thanks again for the help!

  • How can I record a basic sound clip?

    I am new to macs and switched from a pc recently, so please excuse me if this is a silly question, but I am totally stumped. I have been trying to record just a simple 20 second sound clip on my imac and cannot do it right. I recorded the sound clip in garageband (as I couldn't figure out any other way to get the built in microphone to record) and wanted to save the clip to upload to a website but am unable to save the file in QuickTime. Doesn't look like that can be done. I have only the software that came with the intel imac but I cannot believe that there is not a simple, easy way to record a sound clip and upload it to the web with all the wonderful software that come with this computer. I know I must be doing something wrong - somewhere!
    So - what is the secret to recording a sound clip and saving the file so I can upload it to my website??

    You can record voice soundtracks in iMovie just as easily. Within iMovie, you CAN export to .mpg filetype. Be sure to check out the Help menu once you have iMovie running for info on how to record voice clips/voice overs.
    If you are going to be doing much AT ALL with sound and video clips, you would benefit by purchasing a QuickTime Pro registration. It's only $29.00 and you will be using it over and over again.

  • How can I delete a .mpg video clip that has been "processing" for weeks?

    Weeks ago I loaded a 380mb .mpg video clip using Express Loader that is still "processing". I want to delete it but cannot because the software produces an error message notifying me that I can't delete it until processing is complete. Obviously the "processing" is stuck. Suggestions on how to get rid of it? Thank you.

    Have you seen recent email from Adobe about how Photoshop.com service is being transitioned to Adobe Revel?  It is actually no longer possible to upload new files to photoshop.com.  I checked your account and see the migration process has been initiated, which is probably why you do not see behavior you expect.

  • How do I cut a quicktime video clip

    Where there is usually a "Trim" option, the option is shadowed and not allowing me to click on it. I am trying to shorten this 3 hour clip so that I can bring it into iMovie and edit it.
    Thank you!

    hmmm. i'm not sure precisely what you've read ... but this document (even though it's designed to help troubleshoot video problems), actually ends up being a fairly good hands-on tutorial on converting and syncing QT files:

  • How can I record a video with LAbview?

    Hi,
    I have a question: How can I record a video with labview?
    I have a camera (AXIS 221) connected via rj45 on PC. I see the video of the camera in a browser.
    And I would to acquire the video in labview.
    Could someone help me?
    Thanks
    Raf

    Unfortunately I haven't any experience with this camera. Iguess, you should install API, then crete new VI, place ActiveX container (palette Container->ActiveX) on the Front Panel, then right mouse click, then choose Insert ActiveX object..., then found you camera object and select it and press OK. Then you probably can see image from the on the front panel. Also probably you will be able to get image data in array (how easy is it - depends from the camera API).
    If you able to see image from camera in the Internet Explorer, then another method - you can put Microsoft Web Browser as ActiveX object, then you should also see the image. Disadvantage of this method - you will be not able to get image data.

  • Quicktime video clips won't sync with ipod

    Try right clicking on the videos in iTunes and selecting "convert selection for iPod".

  • How do you put a homemade video clip on iPod using Windows?

    I'm so annoyed. I spent my only phone support call to Apple trying to figure out how to get a home made video clip onto my Video iPod and they have no idea unless you are a Mac user. I have successfully put DVDs on the iPod using DVD Decrypter and Nero Recode but if you want to export a small clip, from Adobe Preimere for example, it seems impossible. Can anyone help???? I have exported a clip from Premiere and it says it's a Quicktime file but when I open the file in Quicktime Pro and "export to iPod" it will be rejected after dragging it to the iPod Library. There are programs to help you complete this task if you are a Mac user but I can't find any solution for PC. Any suggestions? I just want to be able to take a segment of video I made on a minidv camcorder and put it on the iPod. I know how to capture and edit it using Premiere but how do I save/export the clip in a file format that Quicktime and/or the iPod will recognize?

  • How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    How Can i get my ipod Video 60gb to play on my XBOX 360???

    she only needs to do that if he needs to change the format. For example if she recorded the clips via her  phone and it's not in a format iTunes will play.  For example if I have a .wmv iTunes won't touch it until I convert it. She could also be talking about video that she recorded on a DVD camcorder that burns the video to a DVD not a memory card. ITunes doesn't convert everything.
    She's transfered the clips to her ipad and the ipad won't play them. So she needs to get them to a m4v or mp4, and you use format converters for that. Not apps but something on the computer.
