tmelancon Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I am just interested in what you guys use to create small .GIFs that are uploaded with a post where you are trying to show a demonstration of something. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCADnoob Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I have had good luck with https://screentogif.codeplex.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmelancon Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 Awesome glad to see someone chiming in. Whats the best way to post these .GIFs to a CADTutor post so its not blurry or distorted. I would like to know that for future posts in case I need to add a small demonstration. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkmcswain Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Same here, I'm using https://screentogif.codeplex.com/ also. I used to use Camtasia, but I don't have access to it here, and https://screentogif.codeplex.com/ works pretty well. As far as posting, I generally upload them to my own domain. I have found the free image upload places distort them sometimes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pefi Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Partially related: I use mp4 and vlc to record it. Cursor image required due to windows limitations. @echo OFF cd "c:\Program Files <x86>\VideoLAN\VLC\" start /min vlc.exe screen:// --screen-fps=30 :sout=#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=0,scale=0}:file{dst="C:\Users\user_name_here\Desktop\video.mp4"} :sout-keep :screen-mouse-image=C:\path_to_cursor_image\cursor.png" It produces good quality mp4 file, 1.5 Mb per minute.
