Camtasia 6 mp4 codec test
Recently upgraded to Camtasia 6 and sofar it has been well worth it. The program is a lot easier to use and gives a much better result.
This test is using the new mp4 codec that camtasia says gives a better result than FLV. The file I used for this test was recorded at…
- 1024 x 768
- 15 frames per second
- 75% video quality
The audio has proved to be a lot better than my experience with Camtasia Studio 5. When I tried to export in Camtasia 5 as SWF the resulting audio always had a very annoying pinging noise in the background… thats now stopped being a problem with version 6.
Using the large 1024×768 video size does load slowly, but this is just a test. Probably will use 800 x 600 for tutorials, once I get around to making a decision…. I like the larger size video myself because there a lot easier to view.
NOTE : Found the .mp4 file format was unreliable when used with Shadowbox-js plugin for WordPress. Could have been something I’ve done wrong… just an observation.
Now have .mp4 fil working correctly… it was a code error by me. Have also been able to force Shadowbox-js plugin to play .mp4 files using FLV player controls… nice. This is a great way of playing software demo clips at a much larger viewing size, by using the Shadowbox-js plugin setup.
