Capturing sketches to make videos
Mar 10th, 2010, 5:45pm
 
Hi everyone,

i've been making a lot of sketches i'd like to put into a video. Has anyone had any experience in capturing sketches? Hopefully in fullscreen mode?

also how's the FPS on that? i know video normally does like 20-30.

any good app suggestions?

thanks
-jeremy

Have a look at the MovieMaker class in the Processing Video library which allows you to add each frame to a video file (using various codecs). This of course affects performance of your app, but is probably not so bad as running a separate program to try to capture the frames and you are guaranteed to get every frame in perfect detail (depending on what codec you use, and there are lossless codesc available).

The MovieMaker class doe NOT CAPTURE SOUND, though, so if you need synchronised sound recording you are going to have to look for something else.
