Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
I am sorry if this comes across as a dumb question.  I am looking for a piece of software that can create a video 
recording file (ie an MPEG or some video standard that I can play on any OS).  I have been told by a couple of people 
that nothing like this exists for QNX.  I am having a hard time believing this, does anything like this exist?

Thank you for your help

Yes, it exists.  Show the BlackBerry Playbook to anyone who does not
believe: it's running on QNX and can record full size 1080p H264 video
with no issues.

Re: Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
QNX doesn't have an "off the shelf" solution for this. Normally this kind of thing is also highly dependent on the 
specific hardware that is doing the video recording. Some video hardware can feed you the stream already encoded in a 
compressed format.

Re: Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
Thank you guys for taking the time to respond.  One quick add on, say for instance that I have a virtual machine that is
 the QNX machine.  Now I am running completely in software.  The issue is that I want to record what would be showing on
 the display and turn that into video that I can easily open using Windows Media Player or something like that.  Is 
there any easy way to accomplish this?  Would this take the hardware component out of the mix? 
Re: Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
Are you intending to record a tutorial type video?  Or do you want the
end-user of your QNX-based product to be able to record their own videos?

Re: Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
Here is the situation that I am looking to.
I have a QNX Virtual Machine that is running a software program with a user interface.  I want to be able to record 
everything that happens on the user interface.  Right now, I have to do this manually using a Phindows session and a 
windows program that allows me to capture the screen and convert to video.  I would like to automate this so that I can 
turn the file into a video file.  Ideally I would like to create an wmv or something that can be opened easily, but 
really any format will work as long as I can convert it over.
Re: Software to Create a video recording file for QNX  
I don't think we have anything that can do what you're looking for.  The
only way you may be able to optimize would be to capture the video
directly within your VM software (if this is possible), as opposed to
capturing a Phindows connection to the VM.  I don't imagine this would be
significantly different.
