Taking screen captures from video

I have a video on iphoto and i want to know if there is a way to save screen captures from that video. Thank you

With "Grab" you can capture the screen, a window, a section, or a timed screen.
You will find "Grab" in Applications -> Utilities.
Just start "Grab", and then in iPhoto navigate your video to the frame you want to capture, then take the screen shot.

  • Screen Capture from DVD?

    This is probably the wrong place to post, but I need help in a hurry. Is there a way to do a video capture from a DVD movie that is paused? I need to get a photo and the only place I have it is in a DVD movie.
    Thanks,

    .. if you're entitled to do screen captures from that DVD, simply use a different DVDplayer app:
    VLC http://www.videolan.org/
    open the DVD with VLC, and the usual Apple tools as mentioned above are available ..

  • History of images "captured" from video

    Usually when you import an image, in the History panel you find the first entry states when it was imported eg. "Import (date time)"
    Could we have something the same in the History panel for images captured from video?  At present there is nothing there when you first check it out and you can't truely go back to the start (unless you managed to remember to take a snapshot before you touch a slider.)
    I'm using the Windows 32 bit version.  The above issue is consistent with both the DSLR (Canon 5D II) and normal video I borrowed from my Dad.

    Hi Sarah,
    Good idea. I can't promise you anything on this one but I'll raise it with the team.

  • 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?

  • 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

    And you can record the entire screen or choose just a smaller area.  Great for capturing video on a website

  • Is it possible for me to screen capture from one desktop while working on another desktop?

    I would like to use QuickTime screen capture feature on Mountain Lion to record a video from Desktop 1, while working separately on Desktop 2. However, QuickTime records this by following my movements to Desktop 2 and then recording what I am doing in Desktop 2. Is there any way around this (either using Quick Time or perhaps a different program/software)?
    Thanks

    No.
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.
    If you are wondering how using multiple Apple IDs relate to iCloud, see Apple IDs and iCloud.

  • Importing screen capture from Quicktime X

    I am in the process of making training videos for my job. For a couple videos I want to show how to access certain areas of a website. I have been doing screen captures of these using Quicktime X. They are recording at 1920x1200 with a frame rate around 9fps. My timeline in FCP will be 1920x1080 at 29.97, upper-field first. I will be working with pro res 422 from AVCHD camera files. For the life of me I can not get these screen captures into FCP. It says invalid format, and I'm guessing it has to do with the frame rate. I tried converting these screen captures to pro res 422 at 1920x1080 in Toast 10, and while they converted, the videos then played back super super fast in FCP, probably adjusting to the frame rate.
    Can someone help me figure out a good way to do this?

    There are a couple of things that will absolutely make you task rife with challenges; one is that 9fps will cause the screen capture to play back in a 29.97fps or even a 24fps video sequence way, way fast! Optimum solution is to capture at the same frame rate that you will be editing your training video in. Hopefully you can do that over and adjust the frames per second. The other issue is that your screen capture is not in a video resolution. Regardless, you should be able to set in the resulting video of the screen capture and keep the aspect ratio, and either size it to fill or fit within the 1920x1080 sequence frame. As for the frame rate difference, it's just extremely different, so you may need to conform it in Cinema Tools and then slow it down by using command- J (apple key + "J") and entering a percent under 100, somewhere around 30%.
    So basically the best solution is to be able to do your screen capture at 29.97 fps but if you're past that opportunity, then conform the clips in Cinema Tools to 29.97 and slow the clips down.

  • DVD builds with screen captures from Camtasia Studio

    I cannot get quality DVD builds from Encore when the avi input is from Camtasia Studio.
    From Camtasia, I export to full uncompressed avi. The DVDs come out blurry or twitching or both. I have tried the avi files in Premiere with the same results. This file does not seem usable by Encore or by Premiere. I also tried exporting to mp4.  I have tried different aspect ratios and frame rates.
    Any help is appreciated.

    my video is still blurry when I play it in Premiere. I used all the same settings you used in the tutorial
    Then as I said earlier, it's likely that you are running into problems with scaling and interlacing/deinterlacing the footage.  Investigate the frame size of your source screen captures as compared to the frame size of your Camtasia export and as compared to the DVD frame size of 720x480 (NTSC) or 720x576 (PAL).  Investigate whether you interlaced the footage on export from Camtasia or on import into En or Pr.  Screen caps are always progressive. Also pay attention to your frame rates; encoders that output legal DVD video handle 29.97 fps, 25 fps and 23.976 fps differently.

  • Live Capture from Video Mixer

    I'm having a problem with getting my Powerbook to communicate with my Videonics MXPro Dv digital video switcher. The switcher has firewire out which works when I connect to a camera but I can't get Final Cut 5 to connect with it. I have set up my device setting as non-controllable but with no success. I am trying to capture SD footage of school musical. Any thoughts?

    Additional thoughts...
    If you have a DV camera/deck, I'd try to use that instead of the Canopus. This way, you could record to tape what you're capturing live.
    Granted, there is timecode differences between the two, but it serves as a backup, should the live capture fail. (and trust me, it will at some point...Mr. Murphy says so)
    For our workflow, we do a couple of things...for mission critical events, we ISO record to tape in each camera and to a Deck (live to tape), as well as the live capture into FCP.
    We then capture all tapes and cut shows from that. This way, we have DV recorded quality from camera tapes, along with proper timecode, which comes in handy, should we ever have to revisit the project. (the live capture becomes our redundant backup recording, which we dump after the show is a lock)
    For non-mission critical, we just record the live cut to the deck, along with the live capture into FCP. We can cut from either, then we can dump the live captures from the drives (saving valuable disk space) and still have tape backup to re-cut if needed.

  • 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.

  • Restore screen captures from Preview app

    I have had to wipe my drive clean and re-install the OS. Before it was re-installed, I had quite a few Preview screen captures that I forgot to save to the drive. When I would quit the app, they would re-appear, so they were being retained somewhere. Is there any way to restore those images from my backup? I can't restore the app as the software won't allow it, and I can't open the backup in Time Machine. Is there any way to get those images back?  TIA,

  • Screen Capture with Video of Presenter

    How do I make a screen capture with a video of the presenter (me). Is this built into captivate? It is simple with Camtasia. I could not find this option in captivate. Does it exist?

    Sorry, doesn't exist in Captivate. Perhaps try Adobe Presenter Video Creator.
    Sounds like you already have Camtasia, I'd stick with that for this type of work. Actually, if you want full motion video, Camtasia is the better choice, Especially when it comes to the editing process.
    Captivate rocks for the slide by slide capturing and creating interactive "video" type output. But Camtasia leaves it in the dust when it comes to the full motion video. Camtasia sucks for creating interactive type videos that Captivate does. Just different tools for different workflows.

  • Screen capture of video editing software

    Hi there
    Has anyone had any luck with recording the screen of a video editing software? I have tried to record some actions in a piece of software that has a video preview window among other things. The video or audio does not record in Captivate. Has anyone had any luck with this type of thing at all? If not - any suggestions?
    Thanks
