ZD Soft Screen Recorder SDK Quick Start

Getting started quickly with ZD Soft Screen Recorder SDK in Visual C++


  1. Download and unzip the SDK package to a temporary directory, e.g.
    C:\Temp\ScnLibMax
  2. Copy the SDK's binary components folder to your project's binary folder, e.g. copy
    C:\Temp\ScnLibMax\bin\ScnLib.DLLs
    to
    D:\Projects\MFCApplication1\Debug\ScnLib.DLLs
    IMPORTANT: you need to copy the entire folder ScnLib.DLLs (not only the files in it) to your project's binary folder, and DO NOT change the folder name.

  3. Copy the SDK's API header and library files to your project's source files folder, e.g. copy
    C:\Temp\ScnLibMax\lib\VC\ScnLib.h
    C:\Temp\ScnLibMax\lib\VC\ScnLib.lib
    to
    D:\Projects\MFCApplication1\MFCApplication1\ScnLib.h
    D:\Projects\MFCApplication1\MFCApplication1\ScnLib.lib
    Note: you may copy these 2 files to a common directory where you are used to store 3rd-party libraries.

  4. Include the SDK's API header and import library in one of your project source files like this: 
    
#include "ScnLib.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "ScnLib.lib")
  5. In a proper place of your source code, initialize the SDK and then start your first recording: 
    
ScnLib_Initialize();
ScnLib_SetCaptureRegion(0, 0, 1280, 720);
ScnLib_SetVideoPathW(L"C:\\Hello\\World.mp4");
ScnLib_StartRecording();
  6. A while later, stop the recording and then uninitialize the SDK: 
    
ScnLib_StopRecording();
ScnLib_Uninitialize();
