Netop Screen Video is a tool for recording the actions you take and the commands you click.

To start Netop Screen Video
• | On the Windows Start menu, point to All Programs, Netop Remote Control, Tools and then click Screen Video. |
Use the tool to create a video within an area of the screen or of the entire screen.
To capture a screen video
1. | Set up the tool according to your preferences. |
On the Region menu, select the area you want to capture.
Tip
Typically Full Screen is selected.
On the Options menu, select recording options and define settings.
Tip
It is often a good idea to hide the program when recording starts, and to define keyboard shortcut keys to start and stop the recording.
These settings are saved and can be used the next time you want to capture a screen video.
2. | Click Record to start recording. |
Click the appropriate commands to demonstrate the task you want to record.
3. | Stop recording by pressing the shortcut key you defined. |

You can let Netop Screen Video automatically adjust frame rates: Leave the Auto Adjust check box selected.
Or you can clear the Auto Adjust check box and set the options yourself:
Max frame rate left end represents recording 200 frames/second and Max frame rate right end represents recording 1 frame/minute. When you move the slider, the Set Key Frames Every, Capture Frames Every and Playback Rate fields are automatically adjusted:

Autopan Speed
|
Setting autopan speed is relevant when Enable Autopan has been selected (command above in the same menu). Automatic panning means that the recording region center is automatically moved towards the mouse pointer position while recording. When Enable Autopan is not selected, the recording region center does not move.
Autopan Speed defines how fast the recording region center is moved.
|
Recording Thread Priority
|
Recording Thread Priority means that a priority is set for use of computer resources for Netop Screen Video as compared to other program running at the same time.
General guideline: If the video recording does not play smoothly, computer resources may be too scarce and it might help to raise the Recording Thread Priority.

Keyboard Shortcuts
|
Define keyboard keys to control the recording.
