I saw a brief reference to MPEG (Motion Picture Experts Group), which was defining a standard for digital motion pictures. The technique that they were using was to do differences in the frames. This would work well for the application that I would like. Realtime capture and playback of a complete screen. For those familiar with Unix, there is a "script" command which records all output to a file. Greatly extending that concept, I am looking for applications which would record the output to the screen, which could be "played back". I have posted to these groups before, and many have mailed many suggestions which don't quite fit my need. (Nevertheless, thank you to all who have responded previously.) The closest applications to date are Digital Film(tm) by SuperMAC(tm) for the Macintosh(tm). Digital Film uses JPEG compression for highest quality images. I may be recording 1/2 hour demonstatrations, and file sizes could be prohibitive even with compression. The other option which comes close for X11 is X/Studio (tm) by Performance Awareness (tm). I am trying to get a copy of X/Studio for evaluation. MPEG sounds like it might have promise. What do people know about MPEG applications. Thanks for your help.
