At one point in time, Flash videos were immensely popular – and there are still tons of fascinating videos out that there are Flash-based. That being said many mobile devices do not support Flash natively, and either require a special player to play them or are unable to do so entirely.
Assuming you really want to be able to watch some of the Flash videos that you encounter on websites on your mobile devices then one way to do so is to record and save them as a video file instead of a Flash video. With video files you don’t need to worry about any issues of compatibility so long as you’re using a widely-accepted format.
Recording Flash Videos
The first step to learn how to record Flash video is to get screen capture software such as Movavi Screen Capture Studio. It is particularly noteworthy because of how easy it is to use and will allow you to record Flash videos with just a few easy steps:
- Set the capture frame to encompass the Flash video that you want to record.
- Check that the audio source is set to ‘System Audio’.
- Start the recording as the Flash video begins by clicking ‘REC’.
- Stop the recording and save it by clicking ‘Save’.
To save your video using the optimal video format and settings for a mobile device you should take advantage of the presets that are built in to Movavi Screen Capture Studio. All you need to do is select the preset for the mobile device that you’re using, and let the software handle the rest.
Editing and Improving the Flash Video
After you’ve recorded the Flash video you can also use Movavi Screen Capture Studio to edit it to improve it in certain ways. The features that are provided by the software are nothing less than diverse and will give you more than enough options to cut and combine video segments, enhance the video quality, insert customizable text, add audio tracks, apply special effects and filters, and much more.
Initially you may want to start editing the Flash videos that you recorded by trimming out any unwanted footage that may have been accidentally recorded at the start or end of the video. After that you can focus on improving its quality or even altering its appearance to suit your needs.
All said and done it is up to you to decide how you want the Flash videos that you record to turn out. Considering you want to eventually transfer it to a mobile device, keeping the video short to conserve space is probably ideal – in which case you might want to use Movavi Screen Capture Studio to cut it so that only the important bits remain.
