Screencast: Dynamic filename, codec settings
Posted: 09 Nov 2011 12:01
Hi all,
I am using VLC to record a VNC session (for documentation reasons).
VLC is currently being started as follows (as part of a batch-script on Windows 7):
I would like to name each output file with this pattern: Screencast_DATE_TIME. Is there a way to do that?
My current codec-settings (see above) are OK for now, but I am sure there is some room for improvement. If by any chance somebody knows better setting, please let me know. My Requirements:
Robert

Code: Select all
start "" vlc.exe screen:// --screen-fps 15 --sout "#transcode{vcodec=h264,vb=1024,scale=1}:duplicate{dst=std{access=file,mux=ts,dst="C:\Temp\filname.mpg"}}"My current codec-settings (see above) are OK for now, but I am sure there is some room for improvement. If by any chance somebody knows better setting, please let me know. My Requirements:
- Reasonable media quality (you should be able to read regular sized text on the screen - no need for HD quality though!)
- small file size
- should be working on mediocre hardware and still not take more than 50% proccessor power
