If you want to record your full computer screen, Click the Desktop Recording tab and select Full Screen. Then proceed to click the Record button.

New Project window will pop up. You can enter any name you want for your first project and change the location by clicking the Browse button if you want to. The default location is under "My Document" folder. You can change the project name and location to whichever you prefer.

You will then see another pop up saying “Please click “OK” button to start recording.” Click OK to start recording.

When you’re done, click the Stop button which you can find at the bottom right hand side of your screen. You will see a screen where you can enter your information and check the results of the recording.

When you’re done, click OK.
You will see a warning message stating that you need to convert this file to an editable file. Click Yes to convert your file.

When you’re done, you will have the CamVerce Recorder back on your screen. If you recorded with Recorder, you can click the Play button to view what you just recorded.
If you have selected Video Recording, you will get a “Save as” windows instead of “Project” window because this will record directly to AVI format.
You can enter the name you want to save the file as and click the “Save” button. After saving your file, you will see this dialog box where you can set options for AVI files.
As you can see from the dialog box below, you can choose which compression program (Codec) you want to use. Microsoft MPEG-4 Video Codec V3 Codec with default values is recommended for standard recording.

If you have specific Codecs you would like to use, you can select from the drop down menu to configure them manually. When you are done, click the OK button to start recording.

Your recording will begin immediately after you click the OK button. You can stop recording by pressing your shortcut key (if you have selected one) or clicking the Stop button. You can also watch what you have recorded by clicking the Play button from CamVerce Recorder main window. The recorded movie will be played on your default video player, not CamVerce Player.

CamVerce Player only plays EMM and EMX file formats. If you have selected Video Recording, CamVerce will save it as AVI format and it will play on your default video player. |
If you have selected Slide Recording, you will also see the New Project window just like Screen Recording. You can enter your project name and location just like you did in screen recording.

You will notice that the Slide Capture button is enabled. You will be able to capture screenshots by clicking this button.
