How to save stimuli as video files (like AVI) ?

hi,

Does anyone know how to save visual stimuli created by psychtoolbox
into video files so I can play them without running MATLAB?

thanks,

Hi,
You can try something like this for Mac (see link below). For PC it's cheaper.

record movie on second computer or on video camera/VCR.
Thanks,
Sergei

hi ji,

1. open an AVI-file [M=avifile('blabla')]; 2. make your movie on
offscreenwindows [SCREEN('OpenOffscreenWindow')]; 3. get your movie
[SCREEN('GetImage')]; 4. convert into frames [im2frame]; 5. add the
frames to your AVI [addframe]; 6. close AVI [M=close(M)].

goodluck,
joost
