# How to convert LibreOffice Impress to video with custom animations?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2015-09-05)

I am wondering whether it is possible to convert a LibreOffice Impress presentation into a video (to upload on YouTube), while preserving custom animations on slides.

There is a possibility to export the presentation to a .swf Macromedia Flash file, but the custom animations are not preserved.

Does anyone have a solution?

I would use a screen recording / capture tool. With this solution you can even define your individual timing from slide to slide.

Which software to use? Depending on your operating system there are many free or low cost solutions available. There are even web-based services.

This [blog post](http://www.technonutty.com/2015/07/best-top-10-screen-recording-softwares-online-utilities.html) lists 10 of them. I copied that list here for reference.

Desktop Software:

* [IceCream](http://filehippo.com/download_icecream_screen_recorder/) (Windows)
* [ActivePresenter](http://atomisystems.com/activepresenter/) (Windows)
* [CamStudio](http://camstudio.org/) (Windows)
* [Snagit](https://www.techsmith.com/snagit.html) (Windows/Mac)
* [Jing](https://www.techsmith.com/jing.html) (Windows/Mac)

Web Services:
