Security
Monitor Pro takes video surveillance to the next level
We're proud to introduce our
newest product, Security Monitor
Pro, designed for surveillance
professionals.
Security Monitor Pro lets you monitor and record from multiple cameras simultaneously on a single PC. Each camera can have its own settings for motion detection and alerts.
Security Monitor Pro keeps all the capabilities of WebCam
Monitor, like e-mail alerts and uploading its recordings to a
server. With the ability to record and monitor from
several cameras at the same time, it's the ultimate weapon in
your security arsenal.
Registered users of WebCam Monitor can upgrade to Security
Monitor Pro at a discounted price. Please
contact us
for information on upgrade pricing.
You

web page.
Project Desk:
Web-Based Project and Task Management
Ask a manager about the perfect project management program, and you will probably hear about features like "Easy to learn," "No software to install," and "No need to involve the IT department." You get all that and much more with Project Desk by DeskShare. Because Project Desk is web-based, it can be used from any computer without installing any software. This gives the project manager tremendous power. If you want someone on your team, just send an invitation! Because there's no software to install, you can easily create teams that cross departments, or include employees of a different company in your project.
Project Desk lets you assign and track tasks, share files, and create sophisticated reports. You can create an account, invite your team members, and be working (instead of learning the project management tools) within minutes. Project Desk is perfect for any size organization, from garage start-ups to enterprises with hundreds of employees.
An
account for up to four users is completely free. Sign up for Project Desk
today!

Creating screen recordings for web streaming
Making a demo by capturing your screen activity is the first step towards communicating with your audience. Making these presentations easily accessible is the next step, perhaps as important as making the demo itself.
With My
Screen Recorder Pro, you can make great screen
recordings and distribute them in a variety of ways.
One unique way is to prepare your screen recordings for
distribution on the Internet.

Video Edit Magic
Torweb's
Question:
I
just purchased a copy of Video Edit Magic and was wondering if
it's possible to take a title and move it across the
screen....slowly from right to left and etc. I'm fairly familiar
with video editing (media 100, avid, etc).
Answer:
It is possible to create a moving text effect. To do so, you would not use the built-in "Add Text" tool in Video Edit Magic's Edit menu. Instead, you would create the text as a bitmap file, such as a GIF or JPEG. Create the text against a solid black background. Add the picture file to the Media Collection. Let's call it "title.jpg". Now, add title.jpg to the Timeline in Video Track 2, and adjust its duration so that it remains on the screen as long as you want the title to display. From the Effects tab, add the Animated Transform effect to the Effect track for Video Track 2. Set the number of rotations to 0. Click the "Set end position to be the same as start position" checkbox, so the two bounding rectangles are the same size. Drag the two rectangles to the start and end points of the motion you want the text to make. Click "OK".

Question:
If I have already created a video file via using My Screen Recorder Pro and saved it, and if I want to extend the recording and add on to that existing video file, is there any way of doing that?
Answer:
You can add on to the end of a recording by using the Join command. Just record a new movie, then click the Tools menu and select Join.
For more information, you can read our article on
Using the Split and Join commands. |
