Record and edit Skype video?

[Alex Udell]

Rule of thumb with any of this stuff it take the capture and convert it to a format optimized for PPro.
I’m sure there are any number of utilities out there that might do it.
You could try even exporting it from a premiere pro timeline then editing with the exported file.
Just because it won’t play in real time in PPro, doesn’t mean it won’t export ok.

hope that helps…

I had this same problem. Other applications such as Skypecap let you choose the codec to record in, but the BIG advantage of SuperTintin is that it records the local and remote streams as separate files. If you are doing anything serious with your Skype conferences then picture in picture is just not good enough.

I was looking for was to convert the videos into something that Premiere can edit. Adobe Media Converter would crash, Handbrake video appeared as just as a green rectangle. I tried others, all with odd results.

The thing that worked… to my shock… Windows live movie maker!!

1) Record your conversation with SuperTintin
2) Import the local file into Live Movie Maker
3) Export in the SD format.
4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the remote file
5) Import both into Premiere
6) Edit away

Hope that helps
