Mac Forum / Applications / Mac Applications / February 2008How to record my friend's webcam on my Mac
I am on a Mac running OS10.4.8; my friend is on a pc; we chat on Yahoo Messenger. I'd like to record the image of my friend on his webcam as it appears on my computer screen so I can get a .rm or .mov or .avi file. Can anyone tell me what I need to do this? Thanks for any advice... In article <16ec3fbe-c841-4ba6-8fa8-67b2577b9a3a@s13g2000prd.googlegroups.com>, > I am on a Mac running OS10.4.8; my friend is on a pc; we chat on > Yahoo Messenger.

JR > Snapz Pro will do that: > > <http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/6149> > > -- Thank you, JR, for taking the time to respond. I checked out this Web site and the app looks good, but the reviews were SO mixed, with so many people registering problems, that I'm going to hold off on it. I'm not that computer-savvy, and I really need something that won't send me running back to beg for more advice or have me pulling out my hair in frustration. Hope some other alternative presents itself. But thanks again very much.

For every person posting about a problem there, there are likely many more of us who haven't posted there and haven't had problems with Snapz Pro (me, for example). The point is I definitely think you shouldn't let this stand in your way. I am pretty sure there are other alternatives -though I'm betting some of them are much more problematic! Like I said, I haven't had many problems at all with Snapz Pro! SignatureNote: Please send all responses to the relevant news group.

I haven't ever come across anything it couldn't record. If you want to know for sure, why not ask Ambrosia?: <http://www.ambrosiasw.com/support/intouch/> SignatureNote: Please send all responses to the relevant news group.

When I have a chance, I think I'll just download their 15 day trial and take it around the block a few times. SignatureNever believe anything until it's officially denied. > Thanks. JR.

Thanks for > any advice... There was a scrappy (buggy) program that kinda advertised encoding a screen as if it were firewire. But the best would just be a screen recording program. Goto versiontracker.com and type screen record... Laters SignatureAdobe - Preventing the case-sensitive revolution everyday |
