Recording options

You have many options when recording Captivate movies and slides.
Creating camera sounds during recording
Captivate can play a "camera shutter" sound when you take a screen shot while recording. This
feature, which tells you exactly when a screen shot is captured, can be especially helpful when you
use the Auto Recording feature. The camera sound is not included in the finished movie.
To hear the camera shutter sound during recording:
Open Captivate.
1.
From the Options menu, select Recording Options.
2.
Click the Recording Options tab.
3.
Select Hear camera sounds during recording.
4.
Click OK.
5.
Pausing while recording movies
You can pause while recording a Captivate movie. This may be necessary if you are recording a
movie and need to answer the phone or are called away from your computer.
