How to Export Quicktime Movies of the sketch window
I want to create quicktime movies of my sketches. These sketches are all straightforward Processing code using no audio, video, images, libraries, etc. I tried using Mac's Quicktime partial screen capture. It captures the sketch window, but the playback is jerky and does not look smooth as it does when the sketch is playing.
Is there a way to do this?
Using 15" Macbook Pro, OSX 10.8.5
Thanks

You can use the saveFrame() function to create a sequence of images, then use the Movie Maker tool in Processing to produce a .mov file.
I tried this on Mac OS X Yosemite. Saving the frames out of the Processing sketch worked well. I could view the individual frames and they looked fine. However, when I used the Movie Maker Tool to create a QT movie, the movie I got was nothing but black frames.
Hmmm, I don't know about this--Movie Maker has always worked fine for me in Mac OS, Yosemite most recently. I've saved frames is both .tif and .png formats and had no problems. Anyone else?
