Green Screen Capture Download

Greenshot is a light-weight screenshot software tool for Windows with the following key features:
- Quickly create screenshots of a selected region, window or fullscreen; you can even capture complete (scrolling) web pages from Internet Explorer.
- Easily annotate, highlight or obfuscate parts of the screenshot.
- Export the screenshot in various ways: save to file, send to printer, copy to clipboard, attach to e-mail, send Office programs or upload to photo sites like Flickr or Picasa, and others.
You only need to contribute the bare minimum of effort when it comes to working on your screenshots, making this practical piece of software an ideal choice for those seeking something to help produce tutorials and training materials.
As such, you remain in control of settings such as image output quality, which affects the overall size of the output file and is therefore potentially very useful. Additionally, you can opt to keep any sound and flash animations associated with your captures.
A few months ago I was able to get the capture card to run as intended with no problems, however I had not used the card at all between the initial setup and now. And currently the input is able to go to the display no problem while the capture card seems to have issues reading the input.
Hi,
Click Tools from the top menu > select Green Screen Effect > this will open a panel on the right side > check the box "Enable" > select a background option like image or solid color > select a Green Screen color. Your background doesn't necessarily need to be colored green to have this effect working. This button lets you select the color of your background. You may use the button to select the color from the gradient box or the eye dropper button to specifically click on the monitor what pixel color to replace. For example, if you want to record yourself using your webcam and your background is a red wall, you need to select the color that matches that red wall. The threshold slider lets you have the flexibility to extend the range of the color you are replacing.
If you are still not able to use this option you can contact NCH technical support for assistance:
Where it says Key color, click the eyedropper symbol and get the green color from your source video. Then adjust Distance to get the best result. This poor screenshot will now allow me to fully Chroma Key out all of the green, where the Chroma Key Advanced might be of more use.
Then you get this result.

This is a good example though of poor lighting and shadows on a green screen and what can make it harder to get the result you want.
I'm currently getting a green screen after setting the Xbox Series X resolutions to 4K UHD (4K Capture Utility shows Source: 2160p59). I've uninstalled/reinstall the 4K Capture Utility but still having the same issue. Also, after changing the XBX resolution to 1440p, the 4K capture utility will not pick up the signal, but then crashes. After relaunching the software, the source changes to: 1080p59. At the moment, I'm only able to switch the XBX to 1080p for recording. Any resolution for this?
The preview screen always shows a green screen. I've never seen video come through. The audio comes through for 1 second when the screen capture hardware is first plugged in, then goes silent. If I play with the volume in the sound preferences, sound is then audible (see the attached video clip of the screen during recording). The video file saves as an .mov file, but appears to be only an audio track, although there is no sound on that track.
I'm having the same green screen problem - I tried downloading the update but it would not install as I don't have any other the other associated apps on my iMac.... any other ideas? I can get sound but the screen playback is green.
Shooting it this way creates a continuity error, which will recur as the scene moves forward. It also describes a possible reason they reshot some of this material, as they were unhappy with how the other angle captured the characters collecting and spreading the ashes.
These LED walls act like your LED TV, putting up graphics on the background of a set. So instead of shooting and choreographing in front of a blank colored screen, you do so in front of an LED background.

I've recently managed to create a Windows 10 VM for streaming and I managed to do a passthrough of an ElGato 4K60 Pro Mk.2 using vfio-pci binding and alongside a Nvidia 970. At start I was getting an image issue since I was getting an odd green screen and I began to look into using ElGato's 4K Capture Utility to see if I got the same image that I was getting on OBS and I did...
Now, here's what I found so far and where I'm asking help. After looking into the matter, I realized that if you go to higher resolutions, the capture card will not work correctly. That EDID mode pretty much states the resolution of the capture, and the 'internal' capture is 4K. When it goes that high, it doesn't work giving the green bars from the image above. I tested this by trying to capture a high-resolution display and it gave the same issue.
I'm using an Asus PRIME X470-PRO. I was using another board at the time of the righting of this post (mentioned in original post). I understand that not all motherboards use the entirety of the PCIe Bus when many devices are used. My guess is that the "Strix" line doesn't support PCIe as well as the board I just mentioned. I noticed this when I tried to add a third card to the last slot and I started to get the same PCIe Bux limitation on the last card. I suppose it's a good reason to go with a ThreadRipper.
In my case, I managed to pass a 2070 Super and a capture card to the VM, but that's it. I can't pass in a USB hub so for the webcams I'm using Unraid's USB device selector prior to booting the VM.
I have a video footage of a moving subject shot against a green screen but the subject's outfit has some green on the hand cuff's as well as the bottom of the dress. When I key out the green screen this makes the those areas tranparent
No, "Inside Masks" or other garbage mattes are of no use here. The green stripe needs to be completely masked by hand the old hard way for the simple reason that including it in the keyer would mess up the matte. Duplicate the layer, mask out a sufficient area at the bottom of the skirt and blend it in with the keyed section on the lower layer.
The secret to pulling your subjects out of the real world and placing them into a digital domain is chromakey. That means going green with a green screen. Green screen is a useful tool in cinematography. It opens up a world of endless possibilities for what can be put on screen.
The only requirements are that your background is large enough to fill your screen, smooth enough to take light evenly without showing wrinkles or casting shadows, and bright enough to contrast well with your subject.
If you do not have a lot of distance to work with, position your key & fill lights slightly to the sides, not straight on, so any resulting shadows will fall outside the visible frame. Another advantage of moving your subject away from the wall is the reduction of reflected green spill light on your talent. Reflected spill light can rim your subject in a tinted halo that can be difficult to discern with the naked eye, but if your actor is too close to your wall, it will be there, and any green bouncing off your actor will mess up the cleanliness of your key. You can wash away a fair amount of reflected green using a bright backlight, but you will find that distance is your best friend.
The camera you use for shooting green screen footage for visual effects and virtual backgrounds does make a difference. Because chroma keying is a digital process, the way your camera creates the image directly affects your ability to pull a clean key.
The key filter will offer you adjustment options in the effects control panel. With a little tweaking, you can use these controls to dial in the key, eliminating grainy areas or green edges. Poorly lit green screen footage may still be keyable, but might require multiple key passes. Taking the time to light and shoot the scene well makes things as easy as possible in the edit.
Spill: This often refers to the colored light that reflects back onto your subject from the green screen. When a green screen is brightly lit, the light can reflect that color back onto your subject, casting unwanted green light. This can cause an issue in the keying stage.
One thing worth noting is that the wider the background shot is, the larger the green screen will have to be to fully cover your actors. Luckily, Mark Vargo walks us through this process in this article, which utilizes the lens field of view to calculate the final green screen size required for any shoot. The more notes you have from the original background shot (such as lens, time of day, etc.) the easier this process will be.
When lighting your green screen background, the goal is to get the lighting as even as possible. This helps ensure that the green coloring is even, with no hot spots or shadows, which will help with the chroma key process in post-production.
This article on clean chroma keying has some helpful tips and tricks that will help your chroma key results, including how to prevent spill with thoughtful planning. One of the first is deciding if you should use a green screen or blue screen.
Add your green screen footage to your timeline, then apply the Keyer effect to the footage. It will automatically key out the green screen with varied results. You can continue to refine the look with some simple controls under the Video options when your clip is selected.
