I made an enquiry on uk.rec.video.digital and someone suggested CamStudio for recording screen to avi. http://www.camstudio.org/. Now this works with Fractint for Windows 20.02 - wow - but the quality isn't too good. I can't get Winfract to save frames though
oh, iread windows and iimediately see problems. i run debian sarge and xfratint ported from woody, ie i have huge hardrrive. i will look into the program as many things nowadays seem to work very well with wine (i daily curse the programmers who thought of that name for that program :))
My reason for wanting to make an avi is to project the resulting film onto the ceiling of a church during a play.
yes. it makes sense to me. my husbands parents are both quite religious, and, some of the pictures i see in their house on display are spiritual in nature, i think flames are more sop than xfractint fractals though. unless you like stuff like this; http://www.sende.co.uk/GalleryImage800900.jpeg which isn't a pure xfractint image in the sense it is composited in gimp from several xfractint layers-i wouold love to achieve simiar though by colour cycling and compositing.
It may be that I have to generate the fractal live and use a projector straight from the computer. The cueing will be hard for that.
yes. i have no interst in live vj-ing.
I may resort to saving frame by frame from Fractint and putting that into Premiere Elements which will work. Is there a way to slow colour cycling down? That would give me more of a chance to grab the frames.
i have no idea, depends i suppose on frame rate of the mpeg as well ?- have no idea how .avi works unfortunatly :(
It's a interesting project though
yes. sammi
