Can this app take videos?

**nmyxspaceship** · 01-01-2012, 07:08 PM

Not that I know of but I can put up links that are used outside of the google browser. I used this app because it was the safest way to go since it was made by google.

Try Camstudio, I think that is what I use.

Nice! I've just been doing the old PrtSc and pasting technique but this is much cleaner and no cropping involved!

Print screen works, but yes there is something for doing this.

There may also be add-ons in Chrome that allow for more advanced options.

How well does this work, and are there any problems it can cause

It actually works well and does not cause any problems, but recording games like this can cause the recording to be choppy. I think you should ask Beanmachine, he's made some good videos.

I've used hypercam to record other vids before.

Search hypercam 2. It's free. Link:

There's also a Hypercam 3 but I haven't tried it.

Still seeing camera post, just one more bump

**superme** · 01-15-2012, 01:32 PM

Well, there's another way to do it. I went to clicked on the button called "Start" in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. Then, I clicked on snipping tool. From there, I think you will know what to do next.

**Buubuuftw** · 01-15-2012, 03:12 PM

Great info! Just what I need!

**Skeletonlord** · 01-15-2012, 03:16 PM

I was wondering what snipping tool was! Thanks! So it takes pictures?

[QUOTE=WhoIsThis;528413]Print screen works, but yes there is something for doing this.

Just like WhoIsThis said, there is an option to take a picture of the screen called "print screen" (or something along the lines of that) at the top right hand of the keyboard in Windows 7. On a mac, the print screen shortcut is: Shift + Command + 3. (don't include the "+") I don't know Windows XP or the Windows Vista shortcut...

Hope this helps!
