It's working okay for me too, but I'm not doing anything complicated with it -- in particular, I'm only capturing the content of an entire (vnc) window and I'm not capturing audio.

Hi. Great software. I was just wondering if there's a way to disable the file size limit? It's not convenient when recording raw files.

I love ESR

...used it today again to capture a remote session and watch afterwards what happened

Feature wish:

- Right now I select a window to capture it.
- But if I drag the window to monitor 2,
or if I put another window in front of my window I want to record,
I do record the wrong window and the wrong things.

So is it possible to let ESR record (optional of course) ONLY and ALWAYS the first selected window?
No matter what is in front, or where that selected window will be put on the screen?

I guess something like MiniCaps' "-capturehwnd", "-capturepid", "-captureappbyname" I have in mind.

- - -

2.) Please add an shortcut for invoking "Save current frame" without asking where to save (save in folder of video instead)
Something easy, like just "S" key for "Save" or "F" for "Frame".

I want to rapidly press a key to save a frame after the other while the video is run.

Thanks for reading.

One thing you might try is copying a video into your Screenshot Captor screenshot directory -- it should be able to open it and let you easily save frames, etc.

Thanks for answer.

IOW, you are not interested right now to add something like MiniCaps' "-capturehwnd", "-capturepid", "-captureappbyname" to ESR?

Just want to know I do not have to wait for it

Ok let's see:

Adding hotkey to save frame quickly -- not a bad idea, i can add that.
Option to lock onto a window so that the capture moves location when window moves -- that's a nice idea, i will add that.
Option to pass commandline paramter to specify what window to capture, sounds reasonable.
Ability to capture from window even if it's covered or minimized -- probably not easy.

Thanks for the update.
Please take your time, I am not in a hurry. ESR works already very well.

- - -

Another idea from my work experiences:
- press a key while recording ==> ESR stores the current timestamp (and let me enter a short notice, like "start driver installation")
- later I want to jump to that bookmark from a kind of bookmark list

Perhaps that is from interest for you. But I can understand also if you want to keep it simple and drop this idea.

Does anyone know if there is a file format that is understood by video players for storing timecodes/bookmarks for videos?
I'd be more amenable to adding a feature to ESR for letting you create markers/notes in a video file if there was a standard file format for such things.

Depending on precise feature set, a bit of this may be shoe-hornable in to subtitle formats.

IIUC, the new kid on the block is WebVTT -- supposedly supported in a variety of browsers:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebVTT#Compatibility

Apparently at least version 2.2.0 of VLC supports it too.

I mentioned browsers because IIUC the used components are often reusable for apps -- indeed, it's fairly straight-forward to make a simple video player now.

But to answer the original question, IIUC, there is no widely accepted way to do bookmarks for videos.

The suggested name is a bit harsh, since this is a great utility! Where I come from, "scat" is another name for animal droppings

Hi,

I'm an happy user of Easy Screencast Recorder. I find it very compact and easy to use.
The only problem I have is a red box appearing after countdown terminates. This box right in the middle of the screen cannot be removed and is seen in the recording too. The only workaround I could find is to prevent countdown to happen by setting it to 0 in the settings.
I run Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit with SP1

mouser · « **Reply #163 on:** July 29, 2016, 07:13 AM »

I've never heard of this problem before BUT I have heard of a similar problem with the last red countdown number staying on screen. It sounds like it might be some unusual timing redraw bug with the graphics drivers that could be causing it but let me see if i can't go in and tweak something to prevent it. stay tuned ill try to have something this weekend to try.

Same red rectangle at me, with v1.12.01 (on Windows 10 x64). Set timer to 0 solved also.
Great program anyway

mouser · « **Reply #165 on:** September 03, 2016, 02:20 PM »

Thanks for reminding me, im going to try to solve this in the next few days.

mouser · « **Reply #166 on:** September 06, 2016, 11:26 PM »

Can you guys try the latest BETA and see if it fixes the issue?

beta is here:

mouser · « **Reply #167 on:** September 15, 2016, 11:32 PM »

anyone?

nitrix-ud · « **Reply #168 on:** September 16, 2016, 01:47 AM »

I can try a new FARR beta if you want

ScreenManiac · « **Reply #169 on:** December 13, 2016, 10:19 PM »

Unfortunately, the red filled rectangle is still there with v1.12.01. It sits smack in the middle of the whole video when recording with the option "entire screen." Win 7 64
To avoid it, you have to record a "selected region" that you enlarge so it covers the whole screen.

mouser · « **Reply #170 on:** December 13, 2016, 10:28 PM »

Ok let me try something else then..

mouser · « **Reply #171 on:** December 15, 2016, 01:16 AM »

Can you try again this new beta:

If the problem remains the first time you try it, can you then go to options, and on the Kludge tab, enable the option to "Completely hide red box when capturing.."
And see if that solves it.

mouser · « **Reply #172 on:** December 22, 2016, 02:57 AM »

Anyone?

Kopejkin · « **Reply #173 on:** February 09, 2017, 10:21 AM »

Thanks.
If use the option "Completely hide red..." in version 1.14.01, the problem with the red rectangle is missing.
You can remove the BETA status and publish on the homepage.

Regards.

mouser · « **Reply #174 on:** February 09, 2017, 10:22 AM »

Whew, that's good to hear. Still don't know why the problem is happening without this workaround, but at least there is a workaround..
