2009-02-09
hey guys hopefully in HD today I'm going to be able to show you guys how to get the zoom effect in camstudio screen recorder so first of all you're going to open a link provided in the description I'm gonna just copy that so I can give it back to you now and actually upload the video it's the workers collection comm and it's called the magnifying glass there is improvers if you want to buy it but then I demonstrate how to get the free version it's a very very small download it's the it's only half a megabyte so I'm just gonna click on it and hit open and it's already done downloading so I'm going to hit open again and it's going to open this Explorer where I can extract all these files so first of all I'm going to exit our internet browser simply no longer need this what I'm going to do is just hit the extract all files button and find a place that I want to expect it so I'll go into my documents and I made a file just for program documents that I'm downloading so I hit OK and make sure you have this button checked to show extracted files when complete hit drop it in wait for this to finish copying just 5 items less than a megabyte and that is done so we have this then all the extracted files will be in one folder hopefully let's go ahead and look for that folder right now and it should be called set up set up Magne glass magnifying glass setup so I'm just gonna double click on setup and UNC pops up which is obviously invisible camstudio but if you have that disabled that won't come out so this will install it on to your computer we're going to go through the typical setup process hit next a ton of times and it is launch the application when this is actually done the finish button and this is the magnifying glass application so basically what we're going to do is say we're going to run it out windows startup and we're going to show us after the application startup and I'm going to obviously it's only available in English and Russian which is interesting but I'm speaking English and my hotkey is going to be ctrl shift f3 just just actually now it's gonna be ctrl shift hue so it says if you're a hot key combination resetting when you enter suck the hot key combination well that's basically unimportant what I'm gonna say is those two go to basic options I'm going to say full visible transparency for this is for Windows 2000 or XP so it won't really matter if you're in Vista and zoom factor I'll go ahead and say two and a half and then we're going to we can set the size of the actual zoom I'm going to mess around with this here it's not going to be a big difference so that's what I'm going to use and Advanced Options issues it to being contrast mode negative I'm sure you've seen in all those picture effects and also fixed game and broken to me also use quite a bit of CPU so I'm gonna just say no and offset from cursor we don't want any offset from cursor I'm gonna lower that actually I'm gonna leave it at the default just to see what it's like that's pretty good next we want to do this is a pro version so we really don't need to look into that because we haven't actually paid for the pro version so that is all the options that we can fit so our hot keys ctrl shift Q now anytime we want I'm going to just go ahead and open any random My Documents folder here control shift Q and there you see it it's a little bit offset for my cursor which I might not actually like and so I'm gonna change I'm gonna change a few things I'm going to exit up and down here in my system tray its magnifier so I'm going to go to options again to bring up this menu at any time I wanted to erase any offset from my cursors what is directly on top of my cursor and I'm going to decrease the zoom factor a little bit and make it more widescreen so let's see 360 by 240 I'm gonna go working right now on 360 by now I'm recording in 640 by 360 so I'm gonna go ahead and make it a 100 100 by 200 for the sake of showing you guys so now when I open up let's see calculator and I want to show you what button exactly I am pressing there you go you see exactly what it is and in the window so on that's just a quick way to get zoom in camstudio you may have already seen my tutorial about how to use them your mouse to get a much larger version is although that does make the screen blink if you just run completely wait turned completely black with your microphone but then you can see quite vividly what exactly I'm clicking on or the again the built-in magnifying glass feature into Windows Vista so yeah that's another way that you can customize your magnifier in windows in camstudio so I hope you like this tutorial thanks for watching and subscribe peace you
