Description & Use
|
Temporary capture file directory
|
Type the desired directory to put temporary video captures or Select the Browse button to locate one.
Note: Because the captured AVI video files can be large, use a TEMP directory on a drive that is uncompressed, with fast data transfer and plenty of space.
|
Pause before starting capture
|
Select this option to open a status screen before video capturing starts. The pause allows you to see video settings before you start recording. The SnagIt Video Capture dialog box opens after you push the hotkeys and before recording starts.
|
Boost priority during capture
|
Select this option to make SnagIt video recording higher priority to your computer CPU. We recommend you keep select this option unless the performance of the program you are capturing suffers noticeably.
|
Hide capture rectangle
|
Select this option to turn off the video capture focus rectangle during captures.
|
Use fast internal compression during capture
|
Select this option to automatically use fast real-time compression during video capture.
Note: Depending on the codec compression speed, long AVI rendering times can occur after capture.
|
Show tray icon during capture
|
Select this option to show a blinking SnagIt icon in the Windows System Tray while recording.
|
Capture layered windows
|
Select this option to capture moving images from programs that use layered windows (for example, the animated assistant in Microsoft Word is shown in a layered window.)
Note: Layered window capture applies to Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP or later.
