Stone Design Forums

I know this is opposite of what Videator is for, but after I did some Videator things in the last few days, using the paint layer to point to things and adding text, etc., I decided I now want to make some screen capture videos. I am looking at applications that do that kind of thing -- iShowU, etc. -- and I wanted to know first if that is ever going to be a possibility with Videator. If the question is insulting or just plain ridiculous, please consider the layman source. I know I can do what I'm asking if I use screenshots, but I'm really interested in recording my actual movements onscreen. It doesn't have to have audio, because I can add that with Garage Band. Just wondering because, naturally, I'd like to give ALL my money to Stone Design.

I'm not exactly sure what you are trying to do but, you could:

1. size videator window to fill screen including hiding the controls with the small triangular disclose button between controls and movie

2. make a quicktime movie by clicking the record button

3. then choose File -> Save Frames... and pick your format and how often you want a frame

That's still recording me just sitting here working. Boring. I want to be able to record what is taking place on my screen. If I want to do an instructional video showing how to do something on my computer, I need to be able to record my screen or desktop. I probably will have to get another camera and record my screen that way.

Ah - SnapEaze Pro (something like that) is what our manual writers use...

This is what I use

Thanks, Blond, I've downloaded the demo for SnapzPro and also iShowU and Screencast. I'm going to make a screencast to show people how easy it is to create a website with Create. That's my New Year Resolution.
