he might be trying to record something from a media player. Or a game in a window.

Good Catch TRP, you are probably right!

Bruce: I have seen something similar once before, and my problem was related to the output video being placed in a project with a different aspect ratio. It might help if you try setting your capture and window size to a standard aspect ratio or either 4:3 or 16:9. Are you simply capturing the video and then playing it, or are you editing it in VideoPad, or similar?

What are the output settings that you are using?

KLR,

It sounds like your PC is lagging when the video capture begins. Remember that capturing video from your screen requires SIGNIFICANT system resources. You might try taking a look at your task manager to see how much of your system resources is available to debut. Also, its writing this information to your hardrive... If the video is coming from your harddrive too, that could point to some trobule with your disk's access rate. your might try upgrading to a more high performance disk.

nivragni,

you can adda sound file by dragging it into the "Media list" then from the "Media list" dragging it onto an empty "Soundtrack".

cd {program's path on your PC}

debut.exe

for example, on my PC:

>cd "C:\Program Files\NCH Software\Debut"

>debut.exe

You have to select the portion of the screen that is being captured before you begin the recording. Since YOU select the area, I would assume that YOU know what you selected when you begin recording...

I've noticed that if Debut is set to load on windows startup, and you use the htokey to start recording, it minimizes to tray, and then you can use the hot key to stop recording and it comes back... Does that help? I'm not surte if that's what you were asking.

You shouldn't have to manually set the video output size... Is your screen's resolution 768 x 576?

I read a post wearlier stating that Debut is NOT for use with a camcorder. For this you'll want to use VideoPad.

Try enabling, and then disabling the setting in the program options. Also make sure that you run your registry editor "As Administrator".

Where is the "jerky"ness occurring; when you capture the video in the debut window, or when you are playing back? What program do you use for playback? Where are you capturing from: screen, webcam, netwrok camera?

You are not missing anything. Per the documentation (what little there is), you are correct. You should put this in as a feature request. You can do that from the help menu.

Is that a Brand? I would check that it supports standard video capture/streaming interfaces. The software is likely only looking for a specific types of video input devices. I would check the compatibility of yours.

It sounds like you might be capturing in time lapse...

I think the problem you are having is probably a filze size restriction. the files can only be so large on your hard disk

grab the settings from the registry

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NCH Software\Debut\Settings

make a log on script to import that reg file to you users reg on logon

I am talking with support about this issue, and they have currrently tagged this as a h/w issue. Can anyone having this problem please post thier h/w specs on this forum so that thier techs and developers can see if there is something in commmon? Thanks in advance.

Same issue with display resolution 1280x1024

I have a simalar issue. I capture a video of my screen in Debut, and watch the output file, and it looks PERFECT. Then I put that video into a new project in Videopad, and go "Save Movie" and it looks like garbage. I can't read the text or even see the cursor half the time. I don't know what to change. So, I thought it might have been the test machine that I was using. I had captured a video on my laptop, and made a great looking video a couple days ago, so i tried it on my laptop with the same capture from Debut, and I have the same issue. PLEASE HELP!

I have the same issue. Running windows 7 Ultimate x64 with a dual core AMD and 4GB RAM.
