Callnote Blog. News and updates

Dear Callnote Users,

Effective July 10th, 2017 we will no longer offer technical support for versions older than Callnote 5.
The reason is simple – many known problems have been fixed in subsequent releases. And of course, helpful new features have been added as well.
If you have a question or concern please update to the most recent version
and if the question persists email us at support@callnote.net.

Thank you for using Callnote!

Add professional touches to your videos with easy and functional editing tools.

Callnote records your entire display while simultaneously capturing your video camera, microphone, and your computer audio. When you’re done recording, the easy-to-use editing interface opens so you can start adjusting and revising your audio or video. Because nobody wants to hear your phone ringing or your dog barking in the background of your video.

Open Callnote Library and select the recording you need to edit, then select EDIT AUDIO or EDIT VIDEO.

• Use a timeline to select the part of the recording you are going to trim and cut.

• Draw your audience’s eye to the most important aspects of your video by adding illustrative images.

• If your microphone picked up distracting background noises and echo from the room you can polish your recordings by adding pre-recorded audio track or music.

• Guide viewers through your clip with interesting and easy-to-follow instructions by adding standalone, overlay or inserted text.

• Save the edited video, it now takes a few seconds instead of minutes.

Callnote Pro editing tools will make working with recordings more productive!

Video Editing Tools Description

• Zoom In – Zoom Out Buttons
  Zoom In and Out on the timeline if you need to zoom in on an area of the timeline to make minor adjustments—or zoom out to see the big picture.
• Erase Selection Button
  Erase selection reduces the recording length and lets you easily trim and cut unnecessary parts of your video. Select the beginning and end of the clip you would like to erase. Click Play Selection to make sure. Click Erase Selection to drop it on the floor. The portion will be actually deleted when you click Save.
• Add Text Button
  Text clips are static images which display for the length of time you specify. Select the beginning and end with the scrollbar to add the text clip in your recording.
  There are 3 options here:
  – Overlay text (to lay text over the clip)
  – Standalone text (to put our text right up on the recording)
  – Insert text (to insert text so it lengths the recording duration)
• Add Audio Button
  Add music to set the mood of your video. Added audio file will overwrite the sound of the recording.
• Add Image Button
  Add intro/outro graphics to beginning/end of the video. Images are static and displayed for the length of time you specify by setting the duration.

Attending an important GoToMeeting session and don’t want to miss a thing? Aside from requesting a recording copy from the organizer, from now on you can easily capture everything what was said with Callnote Video Call Recorder!
We’ve added a new powerful capability to Callnote Pro. Now you can easily record GoToMeeting sessions and webinars as an Attendee for future reference. The recording will include the audio portion of your session, show all activity that appears on the screen during the session, as well as any file sharing done by participants.

How to start GoToMeeting session recording:

1. You can start by clicking on the Callnote desktop icon and by adjusting the recording’s settings in Recording Options -> GTMeeting tab. For the best video quality make sure you have #Record in HD checked in Callnote Settings tab.
2. Recently GoToMeeting has transferred all their meetings functionality to the web application, so, for now, please make sure you’re NOT using GoToMeeting desktop application. We would recommend you to use Chrome or Firefox browser. Pop-up blockers in your web browser might interfere with the call, and unless you’ve enabled your browser to access your cam and mic, the other person will not be able to see or hear you. Make sure that your webcam and microphone are properly plugged in and working. We can recommend recording calls via USB headsets or 3.5 mm jack enabled headset.
3. Launch GoToMeeting, join in a conference and interact as you normally do. Callnote recording widget becomes active when there’s an active meeting, so simply hit the Record button on Callnote widget to start capturing audio, video, and pictures from the screen. Callnote records your screen as you see it during the call. Pause or stop recording at any moment by clicking on the appropriate buttons on the Callnote widget. Callnote doesn’t have any recording time limitation, at the same time please mind that with pressing the Stop/Start button the recording will resume with the new file. 
4. Please keep in mind the GTMeeting class window should be active during call recording. If you switch to another tab during the meeting Callnote will stop recording.
5. When you stop the recording, the captured GoToMeeting session is saved in your Callnote Library and locally on your computer. Callnote saves audio as mp3 files and video as mp4 files. 
6. Once the recording is complete, the audio or video file you’ve created can be edited, saved, forwarded and transcribed. 

• If you want to export or save the recording on cloud storage you can to do it instantly. Prior to please go to Sharing Options Tab to set up.
• If you need to edit the recording, go to Library Tab and select either audio or video editing option. This blog post guides you thru all available Library options. 
• If you need a text transcription of the recorded meeting go to Library Tab and select “Transcribe”.
