How to: Create a video from a live wallpaper

[djbrotherson]

I'm looking all over the net on how to do this. I have an APK file and it's a live wallpaper I need to convert into a simple video. Can someone point me in the right direction?

I am unaware of any apps that would do this, so other than recording it with a camera there isn't much else I can think of.

If you install the Android SDK, and are able to install the livewallpaper in the Android emulator, you might be able to use a screenrecording app like camstudio (CamStudio - Free Screen Recording Software) or wmrecorder to record the output to a video file, but that would be about it.

Thanks so much for the info

I'm on just getting the hang of this SDK thing now lol

I haven't had a use for it myself, so I never did it, but in "theory" it should work.

The camera recording, well that will always work of course
