Thanks Kaizen, though we must be using different versions because there's no "video" tab on mine (and I wasn't able to find anything labelled "manual" elsewhere either). I'm fine with not being able to capture 30 fps though, I slowed the game down to 15 fps and then choose to play it at 200% speed. Problem is, none of the codec options I get when I try to "produce" the movie allow more than 15 fps, not even doing it manually...
They have released Camtasia 7 recently and therefore 6 isn't available anymore.
I still use Version 6 cause the price tag for updating is not worth it for me since stuff already works.
(I just searched for a solution for the framerate problem via google but i didn't found anything...
well i will give the the demo a quick look in the next few days.
Hopefully i will find out how to increase the framerate)
i just tested the camtasia 7 demo.
heres a step-by-step guide:
start camtasia
click "record the screen"
click "tools"
click "options..."
choose "inputs" tab
change screen capture frame rate from 15 to 30 (or more)
click "video settings..."
click "configure..."
move slider to the left to "faster compression" (best video quality)
now close the 3 open windows by clicking 3x "ok"
done.
after you have recorded your game you may edit it to your liking.
after that you click "produce and share"
click the drop down menu to choose "HD"
click the drop down menu again to choose "Add / Edit Preset"
click "Edit..."
click "Next"
click "Flash Options"
click on the Frame Rate drop down menu and choose 30 instead of Automatic
click on Encoding Mode and choose Quality instead of Bitrate
move the slider from 50% to 60%
click "OK"
change the video size from 1280x720 to the appropriate size of your game.
click "Next"
click "Done"
click "close"
choose "HD" from the drop down menu again.
click "Next"
give your video a name and choose a path where you want to save it.
click "Done"
thats it->your video will be rendered.
