actualy video
« on: March 28, 2009, 10:22:44 PM »
Is there a way to save a film as an actual video in case if you want to send it to someone that does not have AHII or make a video clip out of it?
If there is, can you explain me how to do that please.

thanks

You either use a capture program like FRAPS, or the "Save as AVI" feature on the film viewer.

The AVI does not seem to work for me, do you think you can guide me though the steps when you get a chance. I'm probably doing something wrong.

When you click on the "Save as AVI" button what happens?  Doe's it at least give you a list of codecs to choose from?  Try and describe for me what isn't working.  If you are using the default "Full Frames (uncompressed)" it will take quite a while, and the file would be quite large.  Best bet is to take a short piece of film and try exporting it with some of the different codecs listed and see what gives you the best results.  For me the best one is the "XviD Mpeg-4" codec. 

You can download a free version of FRAPS from here.
http://www.fraps.com/  It works super easy with the film viewer but the free version limits you to 30 seconds of recording at a time, and watermarks everything with FRAPS.
