Recording/screen capture for android device

Hello all,
I am using Captivate 7 to do record some software simulations for apps on mobile devices. Up until now, I've recorded apps on the iPad, and I used Reflector to mirror the display to my computer.
Now I have to do a project where I need to record an app that's on an Android device (Galaxy Notebook). I've tried Bluestacks, to at least emulate the app on my computer, but I can't get bluestacks to work.
Can anyone recommend any other mirroring device or emulator that works with an android based app?
thanks a bunch.

Hi there
I've never tried it, but did a quick Google search and found this:

Cheers... Rick

  • Developing and using Adobe AIR native extensions for Android devices

  • Record screen captures smaller than the screen size of my captivate tutorial

    Hello,
    I'm fairly new to captivate, but what I want to do I thought
    was very simple. I'm using the Record feature to record screen
    captures navigating applications, but when I use them in the
    captivate tutorial I'm creating, I don't want them to show full
    screen. I would like my template frame (with company name, logo,
    and some buttons) to remain on the left side of the screen, and
    show the recording in a box on the right. How can I do this?
    Thanks!

  • Minimum specifications of DPS for Android device

    I would like to know the minimum specifications of DPS for Android Device.
    I found the information for Android OS in this form,
    Supported versions of Android OS are :
    2.3.x (Gingerbread)
    3.x (Honeycomb)
    4.x (Ice Cream Sandwich).
    Are there any minimum specifications for Processer, Memory (ROM/RAM)...?
    shimoawazu

    DPS viewers should run on Froyo (2.2) or later, and only on Android devices defined as Large or XLarge. Some people have loade viewers onto smaller Android devices such as phones, but doing so is not yet supported.
    FYI, this article might help in understanding the differences between Android and iOS viewers:

  • Phonegap integration. Building for Android device

    hey all,
    i'm trying to build an apk file for android device.
    Easy with Dreamweaver yes.
    Difficulty comes when you try to add some specific functionality : for instance you may want to post some stuff on the user 's facebook wall.
    PhoneGap provides a plugin for that : https://github.com/davejohnson/phonegap-plugin-facebook-connect
    But this plugin needs some addional stuff from the android SDK. It needs some java classes, namely the facebook android sdk : https://github.com/facebook/facebook-android-sdk
    Has anybody any hint on how we could include that stuff in dreamweaver installation?
    In my opinion we need to rebuild android.jar (not tried yet) but there may be another solution to tweak Dreamweaver. Or has anybody another solution to post on facebook/twitter from a native apk coming from a jquery/phonegap project under Dreamweaver?
    thanks in advance for reactions/advices/...
    Loic

    I did that on a mac :-)
    however it was a standard eclipse project. I had to include the correct JARS (facebook+phonegap) in the library path and everything was fine quite easily. I mean there was no additional SDK to install due to OSX.
    What I remember too is this: there is no facebook app installed on the emulator. It means when you run your app on it and try to connect to facebook through phonegap, the browser will open and ask for authentication. On your device, if the FB app is installed a nice popup will open and ask for authentication and authorization (or just confirmation if you are already authenticated).
    in conclusion there's no need to buy a mac for that. Be sure to check phonegap forum and post your problem. Phonegap releases have evolved a lot and they are quite responsive.

  • Trying to increase the sound of recorded screen captures

    Hi. I'm making screen capture movies with Snapz PRo 2 and they are being saved as QT movies on my desktop. When I open them in QT and try to increase the sound volume, the setting don't stick if I try to raise the volume over 0db. I read somewhere that QT won't let you save volume over 0db, is that true?
    If so, does anyone know how I can increase the gain on the movies without having to load them into Final Cut or iMovie? Is there some program that will let me just edit the sound of a QT movie?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hey, thanks for the tips. But... I don't think I'm making myself clear here.
    I don't want to spend ANY time in post with these tutorial screencasts that I'm making. If I did, I'd just whip out my Sennheiser and my mixer and take the whole shebang into FCP and cut it and sweeten audio there.
    What I'm doing is using Snapz to capture screen actions that I'm recording as tutorials for my students. I'm using either a Blue Snowball USB mic or my Logitech 250 USB headset with mic to record my voice as I demo apps on the Mac. Snapz is using the Apple animation codec to make the movies. But, what Snapz is not doing and cannot do is help me boost the audio a bit. If it did, then I'd have a finished movie right there. As it is, I have to wait a long time for Snapz to finalize the flick. What I don't want to do is load the film up in FCP (takes time) and then export it (also takes time) and be done. I want to package these things up fast. All I need to do is boost the audio a little and everything would be great. If Quicktime Pro allowed me to do that, that would be great because it would not have to re-encode the movie again.
    Maybe there is no way to do what I'm asking without doing it in FCP. If that's the case then that's what I'll do.
    THe whole point of this is that I want to keep it as simple and as past as possible because I am not making any money doing this (but I am teaching for money). I offer it to my students as a value added addition to their classes.
    Thanks,
    Antonio

  • 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

  • Skinning and Image size for android devices

    I am building a mobile application for both Android and iOS devices. I am using images in 3 different resolutions sets.
    The images have been made in such a way that the complete all screens were first designed for 640x960 resolution with 320 dpi. Then I created 3 different sets of images where the images were reduced to 75% and 50% of the 640x960 image size. The images I have now work fine for iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 and 4S devices. But the 75% one's don't work correctly. This is because the size of say background of view at 75% would be 720 pixels while the size of the Android device's screen is 854px or 800px.
    How can I address this issue?

    Any help on this?

  • Will this be available for Android devices?

    I work with Windows and Android products because i feel i have more freedom when it comes to creativity with their products; also i never enjoyed Apple products. So will this be available for Android?

    PB3D is built on top of the new Flash player Molehill APIs so it will be available wherever Flash is. There is more infomation here:
    http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashplatformruntimes/features/stage3d.html
    Particularly this question:
    Will 3D be supported in mobile versions of Flash Player too? When?
    Yes, we expect the Stage3D APIs to be available on mobile platforms, such as Android and Linux Mobile. We expect to work with partners through the Open Screen Project to enable 3D in Flash Player and AIR on devices.

  • Problem Recording - screen capture isn't capturing correct window

    Hi,
    I'm working in Captivatre 7 on a Mac, and I'm trying to add a recording slide to do a tutorial in Photoshop. When I do the screen capture, and then finish, it takes me back to Captivate, and all the slides have the background of my captivate template instead of the Photoshop window. This hasn't happened to me before, and all the settings look the same - I've used screen capture in Captivate 5 & 6, but not 7 yet. When I went to try the screen capture in Captivate 6 also, it's doing the same thing. Some of the motions (but not all) are being captured correctly - the text captions are referencing the motions related to Photoshop. Here are some photos below - the orange background is my Captivate background template, and I've added some photos of my settings. Any help is appreciated!

    Be sure you have a blank (child) master slide and assign that one to the slides. If the objects you are seeing now sit on the main master slide, you can still create a blank child master slide for which you uncheck the options 'Show Main Master Slide Objects' adn 'Use Master Slide Background' in the Properties panel of that child master slide.
    If you want to have the captured slides fitting in the central rectangular space, you'll need another approach: knockout master slide:

  • How to record screen shots for use with Premiere Elements...

    I am putting together a tutorial on how to navigate and use my company's web-site. How do I video record my navigation of the website for import into Premiere Elements? I am thinking it is something easy I am missing. Do I simply shoot a video of my computer screen as I am navigating the site, or can my computer record in video format what I am doing on the screen? I am using Vista on a Toshiba laptop.

    It's been a while but, in the past, I've used both the free 'CamStudio' and 'Wink' software (I think I found Wink the better of the two).
    Adobe also selll their own video capture software 'Captivate'.
    Or here's a whole page of video capture software: http://capture.software.informer.com/download-capture-video-and-record-screen-action-in-av i/.

  • 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!

    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!

  • Screen captures for a 720p project?

    What is the best way to take screen captures/grabs and prepare them for being placed in a 720p project?
    Thanks.

    1. Any idea what determines the resolution of the screen shot?
    Usually the dimensions of the monitor, but you changed it and it still took it at 1920x1200...so you got me.
    2. What would I do if I want to bring in screen captures into a 1080p project and I want to do zooms and pans on these images
    Make the dimensions larger than 1920x1080. You can do that in Photoshop. At least twice the size. Photoshop does a better upscale than FCP when it comes to stills.
    how can I take a higher resolution version of these screen captures?
    No idea.

  • Streaming for Android devices using Amazon AWS and Adobe FMS 4.5

    I have created a live stream using Amazon Web Services and Adobe Flash Media Server 4.5.
    AWS provides me with both a .f4m and .m3u8 file, to use in  <object><embed> and  <video> tags, respectively.
    The .f4m loads fine on my desktop browser, and the .m3u8 file loads fine on my iOS device. However, my Android devices will not load either file.
    What code/solutions are there to get this to play on Android devices?
    My current .f4m code (retrieved from http://www.osmf.org/configurator/fmp):
    <object width="600" height="409">
        <param name="movie" value="http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback_101.swf"></param>
        <param name="flashvars" value="src=http%3A%2F%2F<myinfo>.cloudfront.net%2Fhds-live%2Flivepkgr%2F_definst_%2Flivee vent%2Flivestream.f4m"></param>
        <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
        <embed src="http://fpdownload.adobe.com/strobe/FlashMediaPlayback_101.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always"
                    allowfullscreen="true" width="600" height="409" flashvars="src=http%3A%2F%2F<myinfo>.cloudfront.net%2Fhds-live%2Flivepkgr%2F_definst_%2Fl iveevent%2Flivestream.f4m">
        </embed>
    </object>
    My current .m3u8 code:
    <video src="http://myinfo>.cloudfront.net/hls-live/livepkgr/_definst_/liveevent/livestream.m3u8" height="300" width="400"> </video>

    Few additional things which I just came across while setting up for live stream on my Android from AWS are as follows:
    1. for the first time when I tried to run the live stream on my android app, it didnt run at all and I thought your concerns are valid for an instance :-) .
    2. Later, I killed the application from task manager, restarted it cleanly and again provided the url and it streamed without issues.
    Please also ensure that:
    - You had put a crossdomain.xml file under <fmsinstalldirectory>/webroot folder.
    - You have provided the correct stream name in the <media> tag in Manifest.xml file inside <fmsinstalldirectory>/livepkgr/events/_definst_/liveevent folder
    (hopefully you have done it since you are already playing it on PC)
    You may also like to cehck the apache logs inside <fmsinstalldirectory>/Apache2.2/logs/access_logs folder to find whether your Android device request is reaching to the server.
    Hope these steps will help you in osloating the problem.

  • Screen Capture for Droid Incredible 2

    I have been trying to figure out how to do the screen capture on my Droid Incredible 2. I accidently did it last night but I'm not sure what I pressed. Does anyone have any idea how to do it?

    I didn't think the Dinc2 has a built in screenshot option. Some application might have included the function for their application. I know Weatherbug application has that feature.
    The only other way to get screenshots that I am aware of is to install the ADB program on your computer and connect the phone to the computer create screenshot.
