Quicktime Pro 7: Screen Recording is missing

Hello
I downloaded Quicktime Pro 7 to be able to record my screen.
The problem: there is no function "New Screen Recording" appearing!
There are only these functions:
New Player
New Movie Recording
New Audio Recording
New Screen Recording ist missing!
What can I do?
Thx for help
Christine

Wait what do you mean Q T 7 whats that
Classic version of QT based on a 32-bit structure embedded in the operating system as opposed to Apple's completely re-written version of QuickTime now under development using 64-bit embedded structures compatible with QT X Players v10.0, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 on a Mac. Both players can be installed on and used by Snow Leopard and later operating systems which have dual QT structures embedded within Mac OS X. However, only the QT 7 player can be keyed for QT 7 "Pro" use and is the player about which the original poster here was asking.

QuickTime Player - Partial Screen Recording?

Hello everyone,
My idea was to use AppleScript to:
- Launch Quicktime Player
-- Start Screen Recording
-- Check that 'Show Mouse Click in Recording' is marked
-- Click 'Record' button
--- Let user drag his desired portion of the screen
--- Start record
--- Stop record
-- Save movie
- Close QuickTime Player
So far I only got to the point where the user needs to 'drag his desired portion of the screen'.
But I also have a problem detecting that 'Show Mouse Click in Recording' is checked or not.
I can click it, but if it's already checked - it'll just go off. The problem is that it's not really a checkbox element rather a menu item.
Is there a way around it?
Also, and more important, how can I tell when the user finished his recording I.e. clicks the 'Stop' button so the script
can move on to saving that file.
Here is what I got so far (pretty basic):
tell application "QuickTime Player"
activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
          tell process "QuickTime Player"
                    click menu item "New Screen Recording" of menu "File" of menu bar 1
                    click menu button of window "Screen Recording"
                    click menu item "Show Mouse Clicks in Recording" of menu 1 of menu button 1 of window "Screen Recording"
                    click button 1 of window "Screen Recording"
          end tell
end tell
So, am I crazy or is it possible?
I am pretty new to AppleScript, if there is a different, better way to do it, I would love to know.
Thanks!
Mac OSX 10.8.5
QuickTime Player 10.2

I don't know much about QuickTime Player. Nevertheless, maybe the following script, tested with QuickTime Player 10.3 under OS X 10.9.1, can help you.
tell application "QuickTime Player"
    set theDocument to new screen recording
    activate
end tell
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "QuickTime Player"
        tell menu button 1 of window "Screen Recording"
            click
            tell menu item "Show Mouse Clicks in Recording" of menu 1
                if value of attribute "AXMenuItemMarkChar" is missing value then
                    click
                else
                    keystroke return
                end if
            end tell
        end tell
        click button 1 of window "Screen Recording"
        repeat until exists menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
            delay 1
        end repeat
        repeat while exists menu bar item 1 of menu bar 2
            delay 1
        end repeat
        repeat until exists window "Untitled"
            delay 1
        end repeat
        click menu item "Save…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "File" of menu bar 1
    end tell
end tell

Quicktime Pro X - Screen Recordings denied by FCP

Can anyone confirm that Apple has blocked the use of "screen recordings" made using QuickTime Player 10.0 in FCP 7.0? I've tried importing screen recordings using both the Medium Quality Setting (Codec: Photo - JPEG) and the High Quality setting (Codec: H.264) and have received the same message each time:
File Error: 1 file(s) recognized, 0 access denied, 1 unknown.

Thanks Fraky. I think you're right. Here's what I found:
Just to see what happened, I went to the file "Get Info" panel and changed the default "Open with" program to FCP. When I then tried opening the file it gave me the message:
"Unsupported Frame Rate.
Final Cut Pro does not support this frame rate or the way it is represented."
I took your advice and tried bringing the file into Compressor(3.5). Compressor recognized the file and allowed me to encode it to a different codec. I tried a number of different codecs, and they all imported into FCP just fine.
Does anyone know what the default frame rate of the "Screen Recorded" movies are that can be made with QuickTime Player 10.0? I find it a little odd that FCP wouldn't recognize the frame rate. Whatever the default frame rate of those "scrren recodings" are, it must be something unconventional as I know that FCP recognizes a wide range of frame rates.

Quicktime Pro Won't Record Video or Audio

I'm trying to record a movie with Quicktime Pro 7.5 on my MacBook, using the built in iSight. I can see myself on the screen live, but when I press the red record button, I just instantly get this message.
Recording failed to record a movie.
Ditto for audio.
I quit, restarted the computer, to no avail. What's up?

When I had this problem awhile back, it was because I had set QuickTime Player to open with Rosetta previously when troubleshooting a problem. That might be something you want to check as well.
Also, try creating a new user to see if you can capture under that user. (That's how I successfully determined what my problem was)

Quicktime's new screen recording feature

I need the Quicktime screen recording feature for a work project. My Macbook Pro (os 10.7) has it but the iMac at work (os 10.2) does not. It's not clear if Quicktime Pro for Mac does. I have already purchased Quicktime Pro for my work pc only to find that the feature is not available.
My question is, if I buy the os upgrade to 10.8 for the iMac, will this Quicktime feature work?

The is a better Apple forum for your question here:

Quicktime for full screen recording

Is there anyway I can do full screen recording using Quicktime. I can't seem to get it working when in full screen mode. Is there any keystrokes that I can use while in full screen mode?

What I meant was if I am playing a youtube video in full screen mode how do I capture that?
Update : OK I think I have this licked. I just click on the record button, click on the existing screen and then swipe to another space where the full screen video is playing. Cool.

Can a Single Window be Chosen for QuickTime X's Screen Recording (Newbie)?

QuickTime X Mavens,
Is it possible to use *QuickTime X's* fabulous +Screen Recording+ capability to record a single, selected window (e.g., a Keynote window)?
**Or...is there a plug-in for this purpose?
Many thanks from this newbie.
+Plane Wryter+

Nope.
Whole screen or nothing with QuickTime X.

Quicktime Pro - Split Screen Question??

The help section says that you can edit a video to have a "split screen" - meaning that I can import a video into an existing video, and have them playing side by side (or one on top of the other). I have been able to do a picture in picture (however not playing at the same time) - but can't seem to find the correct instructions!
I am trying to show two athletes running the same 40-yard dash - comparing them either side by side, or with one video on top of the other - at the same time.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated! (iMovie cannot do this!)
Thanks!
Kim

This is how I do it using iMovie 6:
Organize the video clips and/or stills that you want to superimpose on to your main video clip, by having these in separate, individual iMovie projects (no matter how small). It helps if these are in the exact length/time you want later.
Now start with the clip in your iMovie project on to which you want to superimpose one of more smaller video clips or stills. Lets call it Main Clip. Export this (share) to Quicktime Pro in DV (full quality). make sure it has the same aspect as before (Quicktime tends to default to 4:3. If you want 16:9, read on).
In Quicktime, with this project open, select File ~ Open File. Select the iMovie file (in your movies folder) of the first clip/still you want superimposed. This will open in its own QT window. Select Edit ~ copy. If it is a movie clip then select all ~ copy (or you will only get one frame!). Switch back to the Main Clip window, and click in the scroll bar where you want the extra clip/still to appear. Choose Edit ~ Add to Movie.
You can repeat this as many times as you like, if you want to build a 'Video Wall', i.e. have several superimposed clips/stills on the same Main Clip.
Do not worry that the new clip overlaps or covers up the Main Clip, at this stage.
Choose Window ~ Show Movie Properties. The Properties Dialogue appears.
You will see a list of video (and audio) tracks. Track one will be the Main Clip, track 2 your new added (superimposed) clip. Click track 2, then click visual settings. From the Scaled Size pop-op menu, choose percent. Then type 50 into the first box. If Preserve Aspect Ratio is turned on you won't need to type 50 into the second box. You have made the pasted footage appear at one quarter its original size. The inset is now hugging the top-left corner of the Main Clip. If you want, you can type numbers into the Offset Boxes to shove it away from that corner (there are 72 pixels to the inch).
If your original Main Clip was required in 16:9, unclick (de-select) Preserve Aspect Ratio, and type in the relevant numbers in the two boxes, in Video Track 1.
PAL (for Europe):
Standard DV (4:3) 788 x 576
DV Widescreen (16:9) 1050 x 576
NTSC (for the USA):
Standard DV (4:3) 720 x 528
DV Widescreen (16:9) 874 x 480
This will not affect video track 2, but if that is also wanted in 16:9 repeat for that track.
You can superimpose, 3, 4, or more such 'overlaps' on the same clip, and spend a happy afternoon tapping away for each track in the Offset Boxes until you have got them all in the right place! You can even overlap them, if you can remember (or note down - hire a secretary to take notes) which track you want on top etc.
Save the completed QT file. Import the completed file into a new iMovie project. Import this into the original iMovie project, substituting the old clip you copied to QT as Main Clip for the new fancy clip you have made.
Have fun!

QuickTime Player: New Screen Recording question

When creating a New Screen Recording, it is possible to only record the audio coming from the speakers and NOT record the audio in the room where the macbook is sitting?

Soundflower allows you to route system audio into an application.
Install Soundflower-- http://cycling74.com/products/soundflower/ (instructions for use) and http://code.google.com/p/soundflower/downloads/list (application)-- to add system audio (core audio) inputs to the line-in and microphone options already present in QuickTime Player (i.e., QuickTime 10). Once it's installed,
1. System Preferences > Sound > Output. Select Soundflower (2ch).
2. Open QT and begin a New Screen Recording. In the Screen Recording window, click the dialogue triangle on the right. Under Microphone, select Soundflower (2ch).
3. Begin your screen recording.
Note, however, that you won't be able to hear system audio while using Soundflower as a QT input--the audio that was going to your speakers is now going into QT instead. When you finish your recording, go back to System Preferences > Sound > Output to route the audio back to Internal Speakers or your usual default audio output.

The Quicktime Pro New Movie Recording Feature

I just got the Pro edition, and it says in the guide that to record a new movie all I have to do is plug in my camera and then go to File menu and click on "New Movie Recording", but I don't have that item on my menu? I'm guessing it should be there, and I checked that I typed in my key correctly, so what is wrong? I have a camera and mic but what I really want is to do it with quicktime.
Thanks for your help.

I just bought the powershot canon s21s and followed drom the quicktime pro 1) file
2) new movie recording
3) quick time does not recognize my camara. Any Ideas ??

Quicktime Player 10 - Screen Recording

When I am in a screen recording I don't see the "stop recording" option in my menu bar. The only way to stop the recording is the keystroke method. This is ok for me, but not so much for students. Is there a preference to make this option viewable?

Im guessing this feature was taken out. I can zoom around while in the actual operating system. But when entering quicktime and screen recording I can zoom. But once the video is finished and played back, the zoom spots I did are not on the recording. Im guessing most likely ill have to get a paid verison of Screen recroding software if I want this done? Thanks for the response !

QuickTime X and Screen Recording -- Completely "Inverse Colors"

I tried a screen recording using Snow Leopard. The colors are completely "inversed", in recorded movie --almost comic book like.
Playback using QuickTimeX is fine, but this seems to be a really weird bug!
Anybody else see this?

I have the same problem, don't know how to fix it. I also have a similar problem with the sidebar in Mail.app: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10240165#10240165
Has anyone reported this to Apple yet? I'd like to send some feedback but I can't find where.

QuickTime 10.0 Screen Recording randomly skips parts of the recording?

I'm using the QuickTime Player to record some gameplay on my computer and sometimes, randomly, it skips part of the video. Sometimes its just a minute or 2 and sometimes its 15 minutes. I don't know why or how this could possibly happens, but it does. I have 366GB of space on my computer left so space is not an issue. I don't know what is. Please help

Bump. I'm having this trouble too, on both my iMac and my Macbook. I've tried every combination of events I can think of that might make this happen (switching windows, switching Spaces, etc. etc.), but the problem is so random and intermittent. Sometimes it records fine and I end up with a full recording, sometimes the middle is gone, sometimes just the end. The file size doesn't seem to matter; I have some good recordings that are nearly 500MB, and some that failed when they are only 30MB (and I have well over 300GB free). It's really annoying to not know until you've done 30 minutes of work that the middle is missing from the recording, and have no idea whatsoever even how to work around the issue.

Quicktime X player screen recording

Hi,
I want to edit a screen/desktop recording done with Quicktime Player 10.0 with FCE 4.0.1. It doesn´t work. FCE fails to import the file. Quicktime says the file is H.264 encoded with a resolution of 1280x800. Does anybody has an solution for this?

Hi,
no I don't want to use another editing application. I mean, an Apple application should be able to import what another Apple application exports, especially when it is based on the same technology (quicktime). iMovie can import it, but it has to convert it to 720p HD and it takes ages. Perhaps it has something to do with the new quicktime on 10.6, which is not used by fce(?), but that is just a guesss.
cheers,
thomas

Quicktime Pro 7 Screen Green

Why do I get a green screen when I playback clips and movie trailers from the Apple site?

OMG!! YOU'RE a genius! Works PERFECTLY!! Every QT movie I have plays perfectly - NOW - when I have the Graphics set to "Integrated Only". If I switch to "Discrete Only" - they FAIL, meaning I see the green screen. Switch back to "Integrated Only" they're perfect again.
Thank you Mike. I don't know how you guys do this! Just curiously, what exactly am I doing by switching? I don't know anything about Graphics cards! My MacBook Pro is about 1 1/2 years old, It's a 2.66Ghz Intel Core 7 with 8 gig RAM. For Final Cut Pro X I changed it's configuration. (You'd be proud of me!) I have a 120gig SSD drive AND moved the 'older' TB drive I swapped to to where the DVD drive is. So I have no DVD but 2 HD in my Mac. (I guess all that is irrelavent, though!)
I didn't even know I have 2 graphics cards in my Mac!
What's the downside to keeping it set to "Integrated Only"? Can I leave it set to that?
Thanks very very much again. These chat boards are just terrific!
Larry
