How to record a video of what you do on your mobile
There are many times when a screenshot is the best option for a user to save a conversation for posterity, record a error, or store any details hardly describable Equally or even more useful is saving a video with everything that is seen on the mobile screen. Something that allows you to create tutorials or teach someone else the steps given to do something with an applicationor tweak any adjustmentHowever, the terminals do not have this option as standard, as is the case with the screenshots. Therefore it is necessary to use third-party applications.
In the case of Android devices, we must speak of two aspects. On the one hand there are mobile phones that have root access and on the other hand those that do not. Have root access or have rooted the terminal supposes to have modified the operating system Or what is the same, bypassing certain protections and security issues which, on the one hand, void the warranty of the terminal, but on the other they give access to all the possibilities of the operating system Android Among them is the power to use applications to record what that appears on the terminal screen However, there are also tools with an alternative method to avoid this step and still maintain the device under warranty and without the dangers that this process can entail.One of them is ASC
1) The first thing is to download this application on a device Android , either a smartphone or a tablet It is available asfree although somewhat limited in Google Play
2) Users who do not have root access on your devices need to download a companion program for this app. This is a small piece of software designed to activate the operation of this tool and thus be able to capture the screen image on video. A program that is installed in a simple and habitual way, following the guided process, although its installer is in English, although it is very simple. A step that users with root access can skip.The program can be downloaded from this web page
3) Once the application and program have been downloaded and installed, all you have to do is connect yourl portable device to your computer using a USB cable .
4) At this point you just have to start the application on your device. The first time this is done, a message appears indicating if you are not user root, and forcing the user to perform the activation process in such a case. To do this, simply click on the PC button This will keep the application waiting for activation, a process that is carried out on the computer.
5) Thus, all you have to do is start the downloaded and installed program, called Benzur Activator , and click on the button ActivateOf course, first you have to be sure that the computer recognizes the device and that there is no problem in the connection between the two. You must also activate the mode debug or debugging when connecting the terminal. An issue about which the application itself warns if it is not activated.
From this moment, and if the process has gone well, it is now possible to start using the application freely. Even without keeping the mobile connected to the computer. When doing so, the user finds the settings screen, where you can configure some of the issues when recording. The most important is the option Quality or quality Here it is possible to select various options, taking into account It counts the resolution of the resulting video, the screen size it captures and also the number of frames per second.Apart from this issue it is also possible to activate Mark each touch wile rec to reflect in the video where it is touched on the screen. A good option to unequivocally indicate where to click.
With all this configured, all that remains is to choose what is going to be recorded. Just place yourself on any terminal screen and use the floating icon that leaves this application always visible. With it it is possible to click on the camera icon to take a snapshot as a still image. Or, if desired, click on the camcorder icon This causes the video to start recording, being able to see a button translucent recording always on screen with which to cut the recording.
This process can slow down the normal operation of the terminal. A necessary cost that is suffered especially when the highest video quality is selected.Once the recording is finished, the application is in charge of composing it and storing it in the terminal In addition, with the translucent button, clicking on its upper third, it is possible to quickly access the gallery where you can consult all the captures, in photo or video taken by the user.
Another extra option that allows the application ASC is share these contents directly. This means being able to send the screenshots taken directly through WhatsApp, post them on social networks as Facebook and Twitter, attach it to an email or even post it on the video platform of YouTube
With all this the user can now make recordings of all the steps that he takes on the smartphone or the tablet Either to remember which menus you have entered, to create a video tutorial for another person or simply to record and share everything you have seen through the screen of your mobile device.In addition, this application is capable of capturing the internal sound of the terminal so as not to create a silent video. However, it does not pick up the external microphone, so it is up to the user to edit the content to add narration if desired.
Best of all, the ASC app is completely free , although it has some limitations. It can be downloaded via Google Play If desired, it has a paid version that removes all limitations , offering more recording options to the most demanding user.
