WARNING: "Make FLV" feature is now (for me) recording ENTIRE screen, not just Connect video!

Folks, the title says it all. I've been using Connect for years, but suddenly I am finding that when I use the feature on a recorded meeting to "make flv", it not only records the meeting video but ANY WINDOW I MAY VIEW ON MY COMPUTER while that make flv recording is processing.
Now, I do not see others complaining about this, so perhaps there's some combination of factors that makes it happen for me and not others. But maybe they just have not noticed it. I had always feared this for years, but when I checked it never happened, until I notice it happening now in recordings I've made in recent days.
You can see a real example of this issue, in the following dropbox video. In just the first 10 seconds, you can see both the windows task bar at the bottom and me switching to other windows, all recorded.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/73bv90reic9d5sb/Speaker%20panel_Into%20the%20Box%20Conference.fl v
This is devastating, because I post these recordings on the web after the meeting. If I had not noticed it, I might have viewed sensitive email, password files, etc, while recording. And you can see the Connect meeting recording from which I was using the "make flv" here: http://experts.adobeconnect.com/p6vtmdknx1n/ . There is clearly no windows desktop being recorded in that meeting. What you see in the FLV above is from when I was MAKING the flv, which is the terrible problem.
If it's somehow limited to me, I'll be happy just to solve it for me and be glad for others, but can anyone from Adobe help here?
And if you (fellow Connect users) DO make recordings, you may want to do a test and confirm if it's working as expected for you (recording ONLY the connect video and nothing else on your computer). It will be interesting to hear what combination of factors may cause this to happen and when it changed.
I'm not aware of any change in my hardware or software to effect this, but perhaps there's been a change on the server? My connect meetings are hosted by Adobe, at https://experts.adobeconnect.com. I am creating the recordings on the same Windows 7 machine I have for years, and the Flash player shows being 14.0.0.145, and I'm using Chrome as my browser. If I start my meeting and choose the help>About option, it reports Connect 9.2.2, and the add-in as WIN 11.9.970.233.
Any help appreciated, and hope it may also help others if they may have the same problem.
Message was edited by: Charlie Arehart Tweaked title to indicate more clearly that this is happening "for me", at least, and also changed the URL where I said my recordings are hosted. I originally gave the URL for my meeting room, rather than where the recordings are. Of course, one needs to login (and have a login) to see those recordings. I just wanted to show anyone who would help that my Connect account is indeed hosted by Adobe, FWIW.

Added link to the original Connect recording, so folks can see that the info in the FLV is NOT from the original Connect meeting recording.

Hello Charlie,
We have a workaround for your issue. Please turn on the 'Aero' theme on your machine.
Go to
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Personalization
[Or go to desktop, right-click, Personalize]
In the personalize screen, choose any of the ‘Aero’ themes:
This will resolve your issue of FLV capturing extraneous things.
We agree that this should work for Non-Aero mode too and hence we will be getting the bug fixed. Till then please use Aero mode to avoid this issue.
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Richa

How do I increase the size of the font for everything on my screen, not just mail messages?

Thank you, Lee, I appreciate your response, albeit the answer is disappointing. I will go into some of the applications, as you suggest, and give it a try. Thanks again!

Using Sothink video downloader, normally video files are save in FLV extension. Now for whatever reason suddenly my video files are save in .ebm extension. "Save file Type As" is peg only on .EBM extension

Using Sothink video downloader, normally by default my video files are save in FLV extension. Now for whatever reason suddenly my video files are save in .ebm extension & I can't open my video file. "Save file Type As" -to select file extension does not seem to work -

It's a WEBM video file. My solution was to rename the file to have .webm extension, and play it with the latest VLC Player (2.1, but I think any from 1.1 and upper will solve it too). Just associate .ebm with VLC didn't work. I had to rename the files so VLC knew exactly what that thing was.
By the way, it worked the same way with a .eam file (!), I just renamed the extension to .webm.

DFU Mode Restore
Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Then hold both home and power buttons for exactly 10 seconds, then release the Power button, keep holding the Home button until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually about 20 seconds of holding Home button. If the screen is black this is DFU Mode. Then click Restore button of iTunes.

IOS 7 feature request: Option for home button to home not folder.

IOS 7 feature request: Option for home button to home not folder. Maybe for some this workflow is good but not for me. To many clicks. At least give the option to have my home button take me to my home page. 9 times out of 10 that's where I want to go. Not back to my folder.

Do I have to use my computer for my ipad or can i just connect to itunes through the ipad?

Do I have to use my computer for my ipad or can I just connect to itunes through the ipad only?

Vague.
What are you trying to accomplish?
The ipad is not a stand alone device. It is designed to be synced to your computer regularly.
You can buy itunes content from your ipad, but you need to transfer it to your computer and included it in your regular backup of your computer.

HT4718 I have OS 10.6 Tiger and I use to have DAshBoard and now for some reason I can not find it to launch it. Can anyone help me??

For some reason I can not launch Dash board anymore. I have used Finder and it is not there. What can I co besides take computer into service?

1. It's possible you removed Dashboard from your Dock by mistake. In that case, you can find it in your Applications folder and drag it back to the Dock to create the alias. The entire Dock are aliases.
2. If you cannot find in your Applications folder you can try re-installing the Combo Update I linked to.
This is a fuller install, as opposed to an incremental "delta" update so it should overwrite any files that are damaged or missing. It does not matter if you have applied it before.

Can I make a new itunes account for my daughters ipod but not clear out my itunes

We only have one computer now and I want my daughter to be able to use and upload to her computer without affecting my itunes music, what do I need to do? and can this be done?

Create two Windows User profile, one for you and one for your daughter so that each of you will maintain your own itunes library and iTunes account. You already have yours in the computer, you just need to add a new user profile for your daughter. Go to Control Panel/Users to add a user account (make sure it is Administrator account and not Standard account).

Make flv within a flash movie loop (or entire movie loop?)

I am needing to make the flv loop from my .fla file which contains .flv files. I know there is a piece of AS 3.0 I need in order to make them loop/make the entire movie loop but I am not sure what it is.

Well,
in AS2 you need to use this code in the flv object:
on (complete){
this.autoRewind=true;
this.play();
Hope it helps

Formerly when I accessed the IRS website I could print froms in PDF. Now for some reason they are not downloading or printing in PDF. Not enought room

Previously I was able to use Adobe Reader to print and save pages from the IRS Website. Now I am not able to do that. I can print a page but when I save it as a PDF. Adobe Reader does not recognize it. I don't know what it is downloading as. I can go to Internet Explorer and this works. Why does it not work with Modzilla?

hello, firefox 19 has introduced its own integrated pdf viewer - if you want to switch back to the plugin you've used before to view pdfs just go to firefox options > applications & scroll down and define the default action for the '''portable document format (pdf)'''.

For the record, I'm not happy with ProRes

Ever the optimist, I am now very discouraged. Even my downconverted HDV to DV footage looks better on a DVD than ProRes. I have read and re-read the many posts, especially the ones from Red Jacket Mike and Ben Low and the detailed and excellent responses. I feel I have followed them all, and done sample tests ad nauseum. I know a SD DVD won't look as good as the original footage, but it has to look better than this.
My set-up:
MacPro Dual 3 Ghz, OS 10.4.11, FCP6.0.2, QT 7.3.1, 5GB Ram, App on boot drive, lots of internal storage for media drive
Capture as ProRes via AJA IoHD into ProRes sequence. Main monitor is 30" apple display, and monitor 23" second monitor via Matrox MXO. Footage looks fabulous, as does the footage played from the camera.
The SD DVD use 2-pass best standard settings. Have tried both exporting directly to compressor and making QT file first and then importing that into compressor.
All the resulting DVD's with ProRes have a barely perceptible but annoying 'stuttering' quality to them.
I appreciate any suggestions. I have always had excellent success with FCP but this is really discouraging.
Thanks.
Sharon

I am very grateful for the comments. Thank you.
<+Are you doing any type of conversions - other than resizing down - while going out to MPEG-2? Retiming, maybe?+>
Not that I know of.
I file info shows the imported ProRes clips are 29.97, a test on importing as HDV shows them as 29.97.
When I looked at the camera settings, they are set to record at HDV 1080i and further settings show interlaced, scan type 60. My other choices for scan type are 24, 24A, and 30.
Compressor is set for 16:9. I have 2 projects:
The highlight version is 10 min. long. Encode in compressor at 7mbps. Other settings are:
NTSC
Frame rate 29.97
aspect ratio: 16:9
Field dominance: top
2 pass VBR, avg 7.0, max 8.6
Motion Estimation: Best
Frame controls: OFF
The 1hr. 15 min. version has the difference of:
avg bit rate 6.0, max 8.0
Do those settings seem reasonable?
I have not tried the CBR. I will try that. Thank you.
The compressor-created .m2v doesn't look that bad in QT player. I take the VIDEO_TS AND AUDIO_TS folders that DVDSP builds and burn those in Toast to make the DVD. Tried burning directly from DVDSP after your comment and didn't seem to make that much difference.
Am off to try the CBR suggestion now.
Thanks again.
Sharon
