Publishing Media Files

My Screen Recorder Pro allows you to publish your media files to your web server or streaming server. Publishing to a streaming server like  Video Desk allows you to track your viewers, who do not need to download your recordings for viewing them.

For streaming, you should use WMV recordings, since they are small and can be streamed easily. My Screen Recorder Pro's media conversion wizard allows you to convert your AVI files to WMV with custom profiles tailored for web streaming.

For recordings that you intend to stream, record only the window of the application you are demonstrating, instead of recording the entire desktop. This will reduce the dimensions of the screen recording so that your viewers can easily see the presentation over the internet. If you have to record the entire desktop, then you must consider recording at a low desktop resolution so the presentation can be easily viewed without scrolling.

To publish your media files to a FTP server:

1. On the Tools menu, click on Publish.
2. The welcome screen displays information on how to set up a free trial on Video Desk. You can sign up for the free trial if you plan on using a streaming server. Click Next on the welcome screen. 
3. Any files that were selected in the Folder Shortcut will automatically be in the list of Media Files to Publish.  Click Add to add additional screen recordings to the list. 
4. Click Next.
5. In Step 2 of the Media Files Publishing Wizard, specify the details of the FTP server. If you are using proxy server, click the Configure Proxy Server button and specify the proxy server settings.
6. Click Next to start publishing the files.
