Better
ways to record movie videos Two video parameters are most important when trying
to get the best recording of a streaming movie: the frame rate (fps) and
the
bitrate (kbps). A high frame rate makes a smooth motion video, a
high bitrate makes a clear, sharp video. For your recorded video you can
choose whatever bitrate gives you the best quality however the desired frame
rate may not always be achievable. A lot depends on your system performance
characteristics, primarily CPU type, speed, and memory. (see
https://wmrecorderpro.com/user_guide_rvc10.htm#recording_guides
for some
tested frame rates with WM Capture). Below are a few simple rules you can follow to
increase the recording frame rate and quality of your recording. Rule# 1
Avoid marking the entire screen when recording HD movie videos (1920x1080) Mark only the video
area not the entire screen as shown in the image below. Here the movie
video is shown as is broadcasted before being resized to full screen. In this
example, by marking only the video area we reduced the
recording image size by 20% and consequently, CPU work by 20%. This means we
can now record 30 fps (frames per second) instead of 24 fps which makes a big
difference when playing back the recording.
Rule# 2
Resize 1080 video size to 720 There is no reason to
record a 720 video on a full screen (1080 or 768). Try to resize the movie
video to 720. The 720 videos can be recorded at 60p (120i ) fps or higher
using MPEG-2 or H264 on almost all new laptops
and desktops computers.
