Using Premiere for screen captures

Hi Gang-
Would love to use Premiere to simply capture my screen actions along with my narrated audio so that I can take advantage of the speech-to-text functionality for print and search capabilities. Does anyone know if this is possible? Is there a way to tell Premiere to use my screen as the recording device? I've used SnapZPro X and Captivate on Mac and Windows respectively, but it's that speech-to-text functionality that I'd love to take advantage of in Premiere. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Rich

Paul-
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I saw that camtasia software, and while it looks impressive I really need something that has the speech-to-text capabilities. I have MacDictate (Dragon) but the Premiere CS4 has speech to text that actually syncs up to the timeline of the sequence. So if I search on "bulldog" and I have one occurrence of it somewhere in the middle of my sequence than I could take the user right to that point in the move. Catch my drift? I'd hate to have to film my screen from my camera but I may end up doing that in this case.... maybe someone else will come up with something clever. If I get a stroke of genius (very unlikely at this late hour) I'll be sure to post. Thanks again for your input.

  • What is the best software to use for screen capture on a PC for use with FCPX?

    What is the best software to use for screen capture on a PC (windows 7) for use with FCPX? I've tried Camtasia and camstudio however the avi files cannot be imported by FCPX and the mov files produced by these programs are shown as just black screens in FCPX.

    I use to face this issue every now and then (as a freelancer) when I use to cut on FCP7.
    if the material is DV and was captured using Sony VEGAS, Premiere or Edius, the footage generally worked fine. You'll find most people will tell you to convert it regardless, however I found no issues working with them.
    A problem you'll definitely face is HDV material. Most PC editing software write HDV in their own codec, which can't be read in FCP.
    The only thing I can think of is to try converting HDV meaterial to QuickTime using something like MPEG Streamclip, or something similar.
    Good luck

    Greetings, welcome to the Forums.
    There's lots of detail you left out...
    There is no OS 4.3 for the 8800 model. So, what model BlackBerry do you have, found at Options > About?
    What is your Operating System loaded to your device? Look at Options > About, third line down beginning with a "v.5.0.x.xxx", What is yours?
    What screencapture application are you using?

  • Retaining video quality for screen capture export

    I've spent hours searching all over the interwebs and trying every combination possible, but I cannot for the life of me get Premiere to maintain the quality of my video from a screen capture. This is for a software demo video I am making. Here are the settings for the video capture:
    Recorded with ocam screen recorder (http://ohsoft.net/product_ocam.php). This produced decent quality, not perfect, but definitely readable.
    Microsoft MPEG 4 part 3 (.AVI) codec
    1024x768
    30fps
    6000Kbps bitrate
    When I view the files in Windows Media Player or Quicktime they look fine (again, not perfect, but definitely usable)
    However, when I import them into Premiere Pro the preview adds artifacts, especially around black text on white background.
    My sequence settings in Premiere match the original video:
    1024x768
    Square pixels aspect ratio
    30fps
    Exporting produces the same problem, artifacts all over.
    Oddly, sometimes the artifacts disappear, such as when a window is moved with the cursor. Suddenly all the text in that window gets clear for a second.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Over in the PrElements forum, Steve Grisetti (may be spelled wrong) who literally wrote the book http://www.amazon.com/Muvipix-Guide-Premiere-Elements-version/dp/1479311200/ has said that he uses Camtasia for all of the online tutorials he creates
    You might try that... some Camtasia discussions, with things to avoid and help

  • Using Premiere Pro 6 - Capturing HDV .mpegs - These can't be seen by other programs like Compressor?

    I'm using XHA1's using a Canon HV20 to capture via FW to my IMAC with 10.7. I'm using Premiere Pro 6 and have been using Plural Eyes to do audio sync for the past year.
    About 6 months ago when I upgraded to Plural Eyes 3 (which they don't support video thumbnail preview for HDV) I noticed my MPEG files created in Premiere Pro could not be opened in Compressor to change to Apple Pro Res or do anything else with.
    So, what I would like to know is there a way of capturing to some other file format than .mpeg using an HDV preset in Premiere Pro? I do weddings every weekend with 3 cameras doing hour long ceremonies. So, audio sync is real important and being able to see those thumbnails would be great.
    Finally, when I export my XML to the desktop and bring it back into to Premiere Pro it "squeeshes" the HDV footage into 4:3 aspect ratio. Which I then create a new Sequence, select all, copy and paste and now I have 2 sequences to keep track of.
    I realize these are not earth shattering - but they would sure save precious hours over a weeks time while doing many repetive actions. Thanks for any advice.

    I have same experience/problem:
    - PluralEyes does not show HDV thumbnails
    - Windows version crashes (I tryed initial version when WIN support was added)
    - Premiere still needs XML export-import, so stereo audio becomes double mono audio
    I'm still using PluralEyes version 2, which is at least working:
    - use PluralEyes Connector to export from Premiere directly, that opens PE2 and asks you which timeline you want to sync
    - when done, exit PE and it will automatickly open Premiere, import project, and highlight added bins
    - grab highlighted bins and drag them to the "new folder" icon in project bin; that will create new bin and put all imported bins/clips in to that bin.
    - open synced project and copy all clips and paste them in original timeline (where unsorted clips vere).
    OPTIONAL: I do replace all clips than with original clips from project bin, just to get stereo audio back. After I replace all clips I delete added bins/clips, because Premiere duplicate all (it will add them every time you re-import clips, instead of knowing it is already imported). So just to keep premiere project file smaller, I remove doubled clips.
    If I need to sync just some files I use Premiere CC built in syncer. But PluralEyes does resolve harder to understand clips and Premiere solution is limited by how many clips is capable of syncing. And it does not work with several video/audio tracks, but only two. At least in my case, if I try to sync more than two clips it is grayed out.
    Yes, I'm dissapointed by PluralEyes3, because this was my main reason I bought licence, Only to now using version 2.

  • Quicktime plugin for screen capture does not work in flash player 11.2

    Hello,
                   I have created a quicktime plugin (it is .component file) for screen sharing purpose.
    I have used quicktime framework for that. plugin is detected in flash player.
    This plugin is working perfectly for flash player 11 and below.But,
    It does not working in latest flash player 11.2.
    I have seen following error on console -
    Google Chrome Helper EH[240:e92b] *** QTCaptureSession warning:
    Session received the following error while decompressing video:
    Error Domain=NSOSStatusErrorDomain Code=-8974
    "The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -8974.)".
    Make sure that the formats of all video outputs are properly configured
    Note - Compression format used in plugin is kBMPCodecType.
    Please, help me.

    The issue ended up being the change in resolution to my external monitor. Flash was unable to detect the proper coordinates of the color I was trying to select because I was running my monitor in HD mode rather than selecting an actual resolution from my monitor preferences. Changing the settings to an acutal resolution, instead of generic "HD mode" fixed the issue.

  • LR5 still uses cable for tethered capture

    No Wifi support for tethered capture even though Mac can see the NIKON camera as  wireless network and this technology is common with other camera makes and software - Go Pro for example.
    No support for Live view  with the USB cable in ( sofortbild offers thsi feature)
    Can I capture video?

    Yes.
    The only difference is the installation method and the ownership verification. The program still is installed on and runs from your local machine. You only have to hook up to the internet every 60-90 days to verify ownership.
    From the FAQ
    Do I need to be online to access my desktop apps?
    No, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
    An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
    Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode."

  • Highest quality for screen captures?

    I need to take screen grabs of various websites that I will later animate in either Flash or Final Cut Pro. What would you recommend to get the highest image quality? Saving the page as a .PDF and bringing into Photoshop for editing or taking a screen grab and bringing into Photoshop?
    Thanks.

    The largest possible size should be selected to turn off all font smoothing.
    Try your screen capture with smoothing on and then off on a couple sample screen images. It really depends on what looks best after you resample the resolution in your final product in FCP or Flash.
    You should also preview/test your output if you are working with moving screens and interlaced video in FCP. Your type may start to 'dance'.

  • Use Aperture for Screen Savers

    Not sure what happened.  I completely lost my choice of using my Aperture Library for Screen Savers.  I'm not even given the option anymore.  Is there anyone out there who knows why this might be?  Yesterday my screen saver was showing my photos from Aperture; today it shows National Geographic photos.

    I'm having the exact same issue.... but I'm not getting iphoto or Aperture options. I just upgraded to Mavericks 2 days prior and before I did the upgrade I was using a folder from my aperture library.
    Any advice... or is this something that takes time to load and I just have to give is some time... as in hours or days as my aperture library is large??
