[Question] How to make video tutorial of android app? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Done anyone know of any suitable way to capture video of running app on android device?
I've tried several
Capture apps (none reliable though, one said it was taking view, but did not store it, another was unable to start the service). BTW on a rooted dev.
Moto webtop (this really sucks @ 5fps)!!
Thinking about getting a phone grip, putting pu camcorder on stand over my shoulder and do the job. But what about screen glare from the phone? Anyone had any experience with these? Suggestions would be helpful if you've done that before.

Yep screencast. Brilliant app that can capture in high definition with sound and can add a pointer on screen so video viewers can see where your finger touched if you want them to.
Also the dev is regularly updating to add new features etcetera.

That's not the app we mean.
App is called screencast not android screencast and is on market. Its developer is media solutions.

Edit: Yoda! You, is it?

actually tried it on two Moto atrix (Mb860 plat) and HTC Incred (desire plat) both @ 2.3.x builds
will give it another try this eve
if it works it will certainly beat garage lights, stealing kids play table 20 minutes trying to find camcorder focus on lit up screen , not to mention fat fingers
