Increasing the Performance for Better Screen Recordings
Certain factors like Visual effects, Display settings, Hardware acceleration etc. can affect the performance of your screen recordings. To increase the performance of the screen recordings, you may have to fine-tune the settings.
The quality of your screen recordings is dependent on the appearance of windows. Changing or controlling the appearance of Windows will improve the effectiveness of your screen recordings. My Screen Recorder allows you to change the Windows appearance before you begin the screen recording.
Following are the steps to Control the appearance of Windows while recording::
- On the Tools menu, click Settings.
- Select Performance tab.
In Visual Effects, check the following options:
- Check the Disable windows graphics effects option if you do not want windows effects like animated menus to display while recording.
- Check the Disable "Show window contents while dragging" option if you do not want the contents of a window to be visible while dragging a window.
- Check the Set plain desktop wallpaper option if you do not want the desktop wallpaper to appear in your screen recording.
In Display Settings, you can Set the resolution and color quality while recording. You can choose the resolution and color quality for your screen recording from the dropdown list.
You may have to disable hardware acceleration to avoid a blank screen while recording video from media players such as QuickTime, RealPlayer, Windows Media Player. Check the Disable hardware acceleration during recording in the Hardware Acceleration section.
The above mentioned settings can improve the performance and enhance the quality of your screen recordings. These settings can be changed back to original after your screen recording is complete.
