Recording from screen while working with other applications

Recording from screen while working with other applications

 

WM Capture introduced a new feature recently. It allows you to place the window you record from on top of other windows. This is especially useful when you can open a web player in a separate window (for example, hulu.com allows you to "pop out" a hulu player). It is also interesting that the recorded window becomes a top window only while you're recording your video (and becomes normal as soon as you stop recording).

Why this feature is interesting? Because you can work with other applications while recording from the top window. Of course screen video capture software needs lots of resources so it is a good idea to use "light" applications when recording from screen.

How to enable "Set top window" feature in WM Capture:

1. Open WM Capture and click the "Settings" button.
2. In the "Recording options" group of the "WM Capture Settings" window mark the "Set Top Window" checkbox.
3. Click the "Ok" button.
