Computer Flicker
Hi
I’m trying to export some video screen grabs of my desktop to video. I’ve captured the screen grabs with several differnt codecs, but I find, I get the best results with uncompressed. If I drop the files straight into Premiere I get a very nasty flicker (which I guess is due to the interlacing) So I import them into AFX to try and sort it. It looks the same as Premiere (blury and flickery) untill I change “sperate fields” to “off” then it looks great. I then “make movie” but when I drop it back into Premiere it looks the same as the original!! I’ve tried all sorts of settings but I still get the same results it’s driving me nuts!!! does anyone know what I’m doing wrong, I’m sure that it can be fixed, as I’ve seen it a lot on training DVD’s and stuff.
(Sorry if this is a bit confusing)
Many Thanks
Chris

ya you need screen recording software… many with free demos.
camtasia studio
macromedia Captivate
search for screen capture in google and you should find plenty.
But… some cameras have a clear scan feature for shooting monitors, but a slower than you monitor refresh should work okay if this is your only way.

I am using a recording software (camtasia studio) the picture is fine a computer monitor but when I monitor it on a TV the picture is very poor it flickers and is broken up. I can fix the flicker by using the “Flicker Remove” in Premiere, but then the picture become blurry.
Thanks

ahhhh….
So you have recorded your screen and now you want to distribute via dvd-video for NTSC…?Well here’s your problem, the fine thin lines of your computer will dance on an ntsc monitor because ntsc is meant to be interlaced, so your only solution is to use the flicker removal.
the res of a pc monitor is way higher than that of a tv, this can be a tricky conversion.
