      Hi,

      I am using screen recorder pro 2.51 and am a little confused on how to adjust the settings.

      My first test video was 6 minutes long and 134MB in file size, which is WAAAYY to large for what I was hoping it would be.

      What is the best way to reduce the file size without losing the quality of the recording?

      THANKS,
      Ralph

        There are several ways to reduce the size of recordings.

        1. On the Performance tab of the Settings window there are two settings you can adjust:
          You can reduce the color depth of the recording.
          Reduce screen resolution while performing the recording.

        2. On the AVI Video tab, you can reduce the frame rate. However, this will make fast
          screen motion look slightly less smooth.

        3. If you are not going to use the audio, you can turn off sound recording from
          the General tab.

        4. Finally, you can convert the AVI file to Windows Media format (WMV). In fact,
          My Screen Recorder Pro can do this automatically using the Auto Task feature.
          Instructions on using Auto Task are in this article.
