PC Video screen capture for AE importing?

Does anybody know of a good screen capturing utility for the PC that I can import the files of into AE?
Currently Im using Camstudio but the results Im getting are very poor and when I import them into AE it doesnt handle them very well at all (very choppy play back - very choppy indeed)
I use Snapz at home on my mac which works perfectly - but I dont know of anything as good for the PC :(
any help would be much appreciated - many thanks!
Nick

ok- ive got the demo of camtasia - its good, but I think perhaps im asking too much of it. Im trying to capture quite large flash websites, but it always ends up quite jerky :(
One of the sites Im trying to grab is www.playhousedisney.co.uk but im not having much luck :(
Does anybody know of any hardware accelerated way of grabbing websites like this without any frame loss or jerkiness?
thanks again for all your help!

  • PC VIdeo Screen Capture for Editing in FCP?

    Hello,
    I was asked to video screen capture a program on a pc laptop for a tutorial, and to mix it in with my footage that was shot 1440-1080, 30f with my Canon XHA1. Does anyone know the best program I can use to video screen capture the pc, that is professional, and not expensive? Or any methods of preparing it for FCP?
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks

  • VIDEO Screen CAPTURE + Snapzpro

    I use snapzpro to video screen capture for demos that I produce. Recently a colleague sent me one captures with Camtasia software and the quality was fantastic compared with snapzpro. I've set the snapzpro options to the highest quality but it just does not match what he sent me.
    Is there something I'm not doing right
    ANy help appreciated
    Thanks

    No. FCE is a fixed resolution editing application. It only works with DV and HDV formats at specific sizes, frame rates and codecs. You either need to convert your material to one of these formats, or use a resolution independent application like Final Cut Pro.

  • Video screen capture capability for ios5??

    I remember in the pre-release video for ios5 that there was a video screen capture capability..
    Question 1 is: where is it?
    Question 2: is it available for the iphone 4 with ios5?

    Did you figure out how to capture video yet?

  • Does creative cloud include any software for HD video screen capture?

    Does creative cloud include any software for HD video screen capture? I know that Captivate is not offered but are there other software applications available that do the same job? I am not wanting to make tutorials but I am a filmmaker wanting to integrate sequences with screen capture (which I will edit on Premiere)

    Thanks Brian,
    Spent some time yesterday doing research on this. There are good reviews and bad reviews for just about every screen capture application out there it seems.
    The top-ten reviews gave their gold medal to CamVerce, which I'll probably buy today.
    http://video-capture-software-review.toptenreviews.com/
    Yesterday I bought the Sonne Screen video which is rated 5th on the top-ten site. (I figured as I'm going to be editing on premiere I shoudn't need to pay for extra editing packages and as I'm not using it to create tutorials I really just want a good quality screen capture for Windows 8). However, I'm not really happy with the image quality on playback and I'm finding the technical assistance really poor from Sonne. I still haven't received an email confirmation from them.
    The others that I thought sounded right for me were WM Capture (though the top-ten review had a few negative things to say about it).
    Tried a couple of the free ones also. EZvid is very popular.
    Will see how I go and let you know. I'm sure this is very subjective and I'm probably not being as clear as I need to be about purpose of use.

  • Video screen Capturing compatible with FCP!!!

    Hello,
    I recently captured a lot of footage using Snapz Pro X to create a tutorial for a website. After importing it into FCP, it wants to render everything, all the time, for every small change. These render take hours and hours for the smallest change. What should I do? The Snapz Pro X quicktime files are not FCP compatible. Is there a new program to get high quality video screen captures or a way to convert the files I have now? Any help would be extremely great.
    Thanks
    Erik

    In iShowU I am recording at 1440x1080 30p, and capture area is same as video. Then I am importing the quicktime files into FCP. The sequence settings are Apple ProRes 422 1440x1080 60i. Capture Preset is HDV -Apple ProRes 422. The sequence settings are Frame Size 1440x1080 as well as aspect ratio. Something somewhere is off and its driving me mad. haha
    Thanks

  • How can I easily video screen capture my interactions on an ipad2 so I can play back to demo content I have created?

    how can I easily video screen capture my interactions on an ipad2 so I can play back to demo content I have created?

    Hi,
    Thanks for the response but I know how to do a screen capture but wanted to be able to capture myself interacting with the ipad ansd turn into a movie i.e. showing all the movement / animation etc as I interact.
    I have now figured out a good solution. Using AirServer you can wirelessly connect you ipad to your mac/pc then using a video capture solution like Snapz Pro you can capture what you are doing to create the video.
    Cheers

  • PC Video Screen Capturing 24 fps Help

    Hello,
    For a project I need to have someone on a PC video screen capture a software tutorial.
    I will be integrating this footage with 24fps Canon 5D footage. Are there are program suggestions that will give me a high quality 24fps video that I can use on their PC?
    Thanks

  • Video Screen Capture Software and FCP

    I am shooting a video and need to incorporate some video screen capture software. There will be an audio overlay, so I do not need to record audio simultaneously while recording. I will be encoding with H.264.
    What should I use?
    Thank You!

    iShowU and ScreenFlow are too very popular capture utilities.
    I prefer the latter.

  • What is best screen capture for video to be edited in FCP?

    Hello:
    I need to add some video from a client's website to include in a video being edited in ye olde FCP 7.
    The rest of the video is ProRes 422.
    Is there a screen capture software package that can capture in a compatible format and be high resolution enough?
    I have looked at ScreenFlow and Camtasia for Mac but they don't have much info on their sites about video specs.
    Client wants to capture a webcast and show the video in context of the website it plays on.
    I could just shoot the screen with my HD camera but I'm hoping there is something better out there.
    Oh - and yes... I have thought of cheating it.... superimposing the original video into a screen grab of the website but the client doesn't have the original video.
    Thanks for any info.

    I've been using Camtasia recently and there's a 30 day trial
    http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.html?gclid=Cj0KEQjw6J2eBRCpqaW0857k9p4BEiQAWar YbCmQ3HIjSWIUtIo6lldJhPTa488h8EmZlSh6hpLHdHIaAqYQ8P8HAQ
    And you can record the entire screen or choose just a smaller area.  Great for capturing video on a website

  • Screen capture for posting video to website

    I used iShowU for taking screen capture videos then edited with iMovie and posted them to our website. I am wondering if there is a better application out there for Mac users? Any information as well as posting it to the site is helpful! How to keep the file size down while quality high.
    Thanks

    What is the question? It's unclear what you are asking.
    Is it ...
    Is there a better app for screen capture?
    or
    How do I reduce the size of the edited files for web use?

  • How to Get Proper Video Screen Captures (Screencasts) of Lightroom or Photoshop in Win?

    Hello. I would like to get proper screen captures of Lightroom on Win 7/64, showing all screen elements as you see them. I tried FastStone Capture 8 and SnagIt 11.1, but they have various differing issues. Do you have a good hint?
    In my screen capture, i want a mouse-click-sound each and every time the mouse is clicked. This is not "system audio", because the computer doesn't play a sound for every ordinary click. The capture software must add that sound. (I'm aware i can add the sound manually in post production, but want it recorded together with video.)
    Experience with Faststone Capture 8's video captures:
    I get well usable footage
    Does optionally record mouse-click-sound for each click, with adjustable volume
    Does not properly record some elements of Photoshop or Lightroom screens:
    - cursors sometimes look rough or double-sized
    - Lightrooms "TAT (Target Correction Tool)" disappears while being dragged on the image
    - the color selector box of Lightroom's Adjustment Brush is not shown, while the cursor working within that color selector box is shown
    - Lightroom's three-second-splash-message after Undo etc. is not shown
    (All these missing elements do show up in *still* captures with Faststone Capture. They also *do* show up in video captures done with SnagIt.)
    Experience with Snagit 11.1's video captures:
    Does properly capture all those elements that FastStone does *not* capture (listed above)
    Does *not* optionally include a mouse-click-sound for each and every mouse click (they record "system audio", but a sound on every click is not "system audio")
    Videos are less smooth, cursor sometimes "jumping"
    Now do you know a screen capture software for Win 7 that can
    properly record *anything* that's seen within Lightroom and Photoshop
    and automatically add a mouse-click-sound for each and every click i do
    and produce smooth footage without "jumping cursors"?
    Thanks for your real-life experiences!

    Hi, thanks for your suggestions. Now i also tried:
    Camstudio:
    - mouse click sounds very weird (my mistake?), does NOT record LR overlays like adjustment brush's colour selector
    Screen-cast-o-matic, optionally online, free:
    - DOES record overlays like adjustment brush's colour selector. Mouse-click-sound not in free version. "System audio" is promised in paid version, but that does not necessarily mean a sound for each mouse-click. Contacted support for more
    Straightforward using, lots of short video tutorials (useful for absolute beginners).
    Free downloaded program 1.4 only works on primary monitor, the online launched app also records on secondary monitor
    Don't see option to record a "window", only set resolutions
    More "jumpy" than Faststone
    More interesting pro-version seems to be rent-only-licenced, at 15 USD per year, not a one-time-buy
    Camtasia:
    DOES record overlays like adjustment brush's colour selector
    .camrec format isn't offered for recording, only .trec and .avi (on Win 7)
    Exported MP4 looks blurry and has colour blotches, that are not visible in the initial recording, only after exporting; this doesn't change at all after setting very high quality MP4 options; i guess i didn't look properly

    Myles, thanks again, here are my findings with Camtasia:
    Camtasia:
    DOES record overlays like adjustment brush's colour selector
    .camrec format isn't offered for recording, only .trec and .avi (on Win 7), but trec is usable just as .camrec i guess

    i see how to add mouse-click sounds; i don't like the sound they provide so much; maybe it can be exchanged.
    Other tests:

    mouse click sounds very weird (my mistake?)
    does NOT record LR overlays like adjustment brush's colour selector

  • Best screen capture for using with premiere elements?

    i have been scouring the net to figure out how to get better results than what i'm getting with the camstudio (love the program, and it looks great until i pull it into premiere). I have read that it can be a codec issue or an fps issue, but before i follow those trails, i was wondering if there is a screen capture software that works well with premiere, without a lot of hassle. (not necessarily free, just reliable and hassle free with good quality in premiere elements) Anyone have experience with this?
    thanks in advance!

    Well, we've used Camtasia and Adobe's Captivate to make tutorials for http://www.muvipix.com. They're both excellent, and I've never had a problem with either.
    Chuck Engels is really the expert on both those program though. You can find him on the Muvipix forum daily.
    Steve.
    Would you please provide an update to the process of screen capture?  What does muvipix.com and lynda.com use?  I'm considering a project where my granddaughters create a couple of training videos for kids.  It's a dream, but might work!
    Thanks.

  • Exporting Video Screen Capture from iPod Touch

    I'm looking to export video of me using an app that we have developed on the iPod Touch to export as a video (in the same way that screenshots can be captured). Does anyone know if a) There's an app for that , or b) if there's a cable that I can plug into the ipod that will plug into my MacBook Pro (ie not the Griffin aircraft cable) to give me a high quality screen capture video? I'm finding that using a video camera of using the app isn't giving high enough quality for what I'm trying to achieve. Thanks.

    What happens if you tap "more" under music?
    Is there no video option there?
