This isnt a game I just wanted to show off my latest work. Iv been working on a screencast applet that records the browser. Screen cast applet in DEBUG MODEIts a handy tool for reviewing websites in video, in case you wanted to upload reviews to youtube or something like that. Currently I only made a frame version that locks onto the window. This has a few issues with pages that dont allow you to access them via a frame. Ill eventually upload an unlocked version to select custom capture sizes and such. Movie Player AppletWorking on making an applet that can play movies inside a webpage Online Webcam RecorderAlso working on a online webcam recorder Note: It seems that FTP upload doesnt work with Java7 I keep getting a permission exception on the socket. *Only works on Mac/Windows. I still need to build FFMpeg natives on linux.

Worked ok here. One problem I did notice that it squished the width in the video. Like it didn't understand my screen is widescreen.

Thanks for testing it. It currently records to 640*480. So whatever size the frame of the browser is, it will stretch it to 640*480. I need to add a settings popup, Ill add an option to maintain aspect ratio.

Cool idea.
I used it and went to JGO.
It recorded sound through my microphone which is impressive because I've never done that before!
It dumped an AVI file which played sound well in windows media player, but the video didn't work in WMP or real player.

recorded a video for youtube using the applet.
Also increased quality over performance as it seems to be performing fast enough.

How do you use this? I clicked record, typed in a random file name to save on my desktop, and after visiting a couple sites, I hit stop and there were no files...

From all the output in the console, there was 1 error: "Unable to find a suitable output format for 'C:\Users\Roi'"
EDIT: Yes, that seems to be the problem, if I save it to my desktop it doesn't work. If I save it to my external hard drive it works fine. Weird?

I made the applet now undockable. Its now useful for more than just browser activity.

Hi, tried this and it records pretty good but wanted to edit using movie maker. MM cannot import due to lack of codec, so I installed the xvid codec you referred to but still no joy. Any ideas?
Thanks, Steve

you may want to install the klite codec pack. It should install any missing codecs.

Started working on a movie player Movie Player AppletCurrently I havnt put any work into polishing it. It currently only players movies. I still need to add controls, make sure that sound and video are synced. It also only works on Windows and Mac, still havnt got around to building FFMpeg executables for linux.

Im using FFMpeg to stream decoded data into a raw format, so that java can handle it. It seems that its going to get allot worse before it gets better, MacOSX is having a hard time handling network activity, and its causing the applet to freeze for 10 seconds, then do a huge catch up out of sync with even the calls to sleep??? This makes no sense.

This is Mac what do you expect?  But how do you send the data from FFMpeg to Java O.o?

you call ffmpeg from the command line, set the output to be a network/streaming protocol, either http/rtp. And handle the server in java.
Just need to make sure you output to a format that java can read. So in this case streaming jpegs, and wav.

Oh FFMpag lets you stream to a network? That sounds really convenient because then you can just connect to the server and port and stream in the data!

I wanted to test your recorder to make a small clip of a game. Unfortunately the Audio Capture Device only had one option: "3 (Off)"  I had similar problem with CamStudio, so it might be a problem with my audio card. Fraps had no problem though.

Damn, the applet uses Java sound to capture from the Mic, so it may be a problem with Java, If you have the latest version of Java then Its probably not going to be fixable. Thanks for reporting the bug.
