TSCC codec
TechSmith Screen Capture Codec Screen Capture Codec (TSCC), providing lossless image quality coupled with excellent compression ratios. Since the TSCC is lossless, it preserves 100% of the image quality, even through multiple decompression/recompression cycles that are typical during the production process. The TSCC is optimized for screen capture so that the resulting files are small and highly compressed. The compression codec also affects the capture frame rate or speed of compression. The high frame rates required for smooth video increase the need for high compression speed. High color screens also impact compression speed. The TechSmith codec offers exceptional compression speed at all color depths - unlike, for example, some codecs that only support 8-bit color. (The Microsoft RLE codec is lossless but is restricted to 8-bit color.) This means you benefit from TSCC features: Even codecs that are more widely distributed do not perform as well as the TechSmith codec to deliver the highest quality, smallest file size and fastest compression speed. TSCC Feature: Lossless compression Benefits: 100% quality is required for screen recordings to be readable. Survives endless editing cycles. TSCC Feature: Optimized for compressing screen recordings of office-style applications Benefits: High compression ratios. In other words, small file sizes. TSCC Feature: Fast compression speed Benefits: High capture frame rates. In other words, smooth high quality videos in terms of motion (like cursor movement). Options: TSCC is the default method of compressing/decompressing video in Camtasia Recorder. While the default codec can easily be changed to any of the standard Windows codecs, we recommend that you use TSCC when recording your videos with Camtasia Studio. You can still change the codec later, in Camtasia Producer. When a video is compressed with TSCC, anyone wishing to view the video must have TSCC installed on his or her computer. There are no charges, royalties or licensing requirements for distributing videos encoded with TSCC or with distributing the codec to others for viewing. Use one of the following methods to share the TechSmith Screen Capture Codec: For TSCC compressed content delivered on the Internet, an ActiveX control is available that can be embedded in a Web page to automatically install the TSCC codec when a user lands on the page using Microsoft Internet Explorer Web browser. This very small control checks if TSCC needs to be installed or updated and if so, downloads and installs it. The TSCC Codec is compatible with Windows. Current version is 2.0.6, released 27 June 2005. File size is 170K Bytes. How to instal TSCC codec: |
