Q&A:
Tips from our Support Forum |

|
|
1. |
Video Edit Magic: Moving
multiple files while keeping their relative positions |
|
Q. |
Is there a way to move
several video files on a timeline together &
keep their relative positions to each other intact?
Or is there a way to add or remove files from
a timeline with several files on it & keep
the relative positions of the video, audio,&
transitions of the remaining file the same without
moving each file separately? This can be as much
trouble as starting over from scratch.
Also is there a way to move the remaining files
to the beginning of the time line after deleting
the files from the beginning of the timeline?
Or shifting the timeline itself. |
|
|
A. |
Select all files on the
timeline that you want to move by holding down
the Ctrl key. Use the left and right arrow keys
on the keyboard to move them together. |
|
|
|
Additionally, you can
also use the selection sliders to select a range
of sources on the timeline. Now you can cut or
copy the range. Move the slider to where you want
the sources and Paste them there. |
|
|
|
After the beginning of
the timeline is deleted, you can move the remaining
sources by selecting them all (Edit > Select
All) and then using the arrow keys. |

Article : How to make good Screen Recordings |
|
|
|
When you record
a movie using My Screen Recorder, you are actually saving
a sequence of bitmaps (known as frames), that, when
displayed in rapid succession, exhibit motion. An AVI
file usually has a very large file size, especially
for those lengthy and detailed videos. This is due to
the fact that a video file has to pack hundreds and
thousands of images into a single file. To reduce the
size of the AVI file, you can do the following: |
|
|
Recording on lower resolutions: |
|
Recording at lower resolutions
is beneficial. If, for example, you create a video that
is 1024x768, people who have a lower screen resolution
such as 640x480 will not be able to view your videos
very well. They could scale the video down in Media
Player, but scaling videos results in image distortion
quality that makes characters unreadable and makes your
video look like a blurry mess. It is generally best
to determine the lowest screen resolution that your
movie will be played back on, and then record your movie
at slightly less than that lowest screen resolution. |
|
|
|
Limiting the speed at which
video frames are captured: |
|
In the process of recording,
My Screen Recorder allows you to specify two video rates:
the input rate and output rate. The input rate tells
your computer how many frames to record per second.
The output rate tells your computer how fast to play
them back. Usually, these two rates are equal, so that
the time of playback is equal to the time used in the
recording. However, these two rates can also be different.
Normally, you do this only if you want to create a time-lapse
movie. For example, you can capture a frame once every
minute and play the frames back at 20 frames per second.
If more frames are recorded per second, the resultant
animation will also be smoother. |
