Promising Video Capture Program

[Guest Mushroom_Lord]

Hey all - I wanted to try video capture on my blade - and I found this rather promising program: http://www.mightypocket.com/2010/09/instal...st-for-windows/

I have SDK and JDK.

Now the program opens, I've entered the path to the android SDK.

But when I click file,

"Connect to handset" is greyed out.

FYI I have check USB debbugging on my phone.

The problem is this:

Now it wanted me to have this google driver (read the guide)

And so I uninstalled the Official ZTE one and downloaded the google one.

And so windows prompted me for drivers when I connected my phone.

I chose the directory of the google driver (C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk-windows\google-usb_driver)

But then windows says it couldnt find the right driver or something.

Will the google drivers not work or do I have to find the file manually?

Just tried again: its not prompting for drivers anymore (I'll assume its installed the google ones or something)

But its still greyed out:@

Any help?

Cheers

This works for me: http://code.google.com/p/androidscreencast/ this is also available in DroidExplorer iirc.

Although the both look like good tools - im focusing on screen recording. The first only does so slowly, and the second, only screenshots :/

The video here: http://www.mightypocket.com/2010/09/androi...ture-in-action/ with the tool you suggeted doesn't look any faster than the method I linked.

DroidExplorer does video capture as well, not very good either though (5 fps or something).

Damn, I wonder if there is a way of getting more seamless video capture?

Probably if the device had a way to output to a TV then plug that into some sort of TV tuner to record it from the computer.

quite possibly, and I do have ulities for enabling my PC to do so.

but I'm not gunna buy an sgs :)

I think about 5fps is all we can get out of the blade, and indeed most devices.

Could always get the old camcorder out the closet and film it :)

our compacts perform better :)

well the originnl idea was together and sell the blade (not mine, oranges or whoever's) to the world. and I spreckend that a screen recording would be the way forward. but if I can get the compact bids looking pro then maybe. I'd need then anyway :(

What about setting up VNC on the phone, and connecting to it on the PC and record from there?

Here's some howto regarding the above: http://opensourceexcedio.wordpress.com/201...oid-vnc-server/

I tried it, but its still pretty slow :)

I think the blade is very limited in this field :)
