Recording stepmania

Re: Recording stepmania

Tried CamStudio. Anyway to get rid of the mouse pointer? Also, very very choppy. Its like 3 images per second slideshow... yeah, 3 frames per second...

Also, supposing I don't need the audio (I hav the mp3 anyways, just edit it into the avi video), which records better video? Hypercam or CamStudio?

Re: Recording stepmania

I used to use screen recorder gold, and it worked pretty good. It records sound as well but if you make the recording screen to large it might come out a little choppy. Also if the screen recorder or whatever you're using for stepmania won't show up, just go to video options > screen resolution (I think)> window other than fullscreen.

You probably have your quality at the default setting, turn it up to 90 or better. Go to Options > Video Options and mess around in there. Of course then you'll have this 500MB video, so you go into Windows Movie Maker and convert it to a .wmv which will be much smaller.

Re: Recording stepmania

No, I followed those directions, but it doesnt record well fullscreen. So I lowered the resolution, and it worked fine. I like avis better than wmvs. I never really cared about size... soooo thanks everybody.

One question unanswered... mouse pointer?

Re: Recording stepmania

just move it off the screen maybe?

Re: Recording stepmania

I can't do that for some programs other than Stepmania that I want to record a video of. Fraps has a function that prevents mouse pointers from showing up, so there should be a patch or something that allows this. I could attempt to make one maybe...

Re: Recording stepmania

Did you look at every option? There's probably an option somewhere...

Re: Recording stepmania

Go to Options > Cursor Options. A window will appear with a bunch of configurables on it. Click hide cursor.

Whammy.

Re: Recording stepmania

I feel stupid. I spent about 30 minutes checking what I thought was every option. Must've missed the word "cursor." ><
