Build of Recorder fails on VS2008 (Vista64), seemingly due to issues with WIN32 #ifdefs in CxImage. Everything else appears to work.

CxImage on WIN32 is missing the Load method, which EffectsOptions2 and Screen try to use. I think these two should be using LoadResource instead on Windows.

There’s also this error:

1>Screen.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol “public: static unsigned long __cdecl CxImage::GetTypeIdFromName(char const *)” (?GetTypeIdFromName@CxImage@@SAKPBD@Z)

This limit is actually due to the size of the uncompressed .avi file that is being generated. Once this file is over about 2 gb in size standard 32bit file APIs are unable to handle it. If you change some of your settings to decrease quality you should be able to record fullscreen for longer.

There have been suggestions for ways to work around this limitation, however they have not been implemented yet. For now, if you can sacrifice quality, I recommend decreasing your quality settings. If not you can start a new recording every 20 minutes and put them back together with a free video editing software such as Virtual Dub.

Evidently CamStudio has a limit on how long a fullscreen video can be of around 22 min.

That’s 1:25:00.

I installed CamStudio about three weeks ago. I had a little trouble getting the audio to record but it is fine now. I have captured several videos successfully using FullScreen and F8 for Record and F9 for Stop.

But today I recorded a 1:25 webinar but after I stopped and was asked for a file name, CamStudio said it couldn’t find the video file. It happened a second time. But I recorded 2 mins of it with no problems.

Is the a limit on how long the video can be? I had 6GB free on C:

Thanks
