Compressing Video Recordings
Creating a recording in Windows (.avi) format
allows compression. The settings that affect your results are: compression,
movement, and window size.
Compression ratios impact image quality.
Lower compression ratios produce smaller file sizes, but also lower image
quality. The compression ratios vary depending on the compression program
you use.
The key frame rate impacts image quality
if you make changes in the graphics area quickly. The rate is how often
an exact copy of the screen display is saved. Each frame includes only
what has changed since the last key frame. If you have excess variation
between frames, lower the key rate.
To set video compression:
Select a Compressor
(Microsoft Video 1, Cinepak, Codec by
Radius, and so on).
To create the video without compression,
select Full Frames (Uncompressed):
clicking Cancel aborts the recording.
Adjust the Compression
Quality slider.
Type a value for the Key
Frame rate.
For additional compression options, click Configure. The options available depend
on the compressor you select.
Click OK.
