Piccadilly Coke sign today, Can I record it on PC

Hi all,

A message to my wife will be displayed on the Coke sign in Piccadilly today.

We cannot get there to see it and I was wondering if there is any way I can record it on my pc.

I will be watching it via the link to the sign from the coke website

Hope you can help me

  • Hi Browntoa

    Ok, I have downloaded it, and subsequently run it, but it does appear to be for audio files only

    I want to record the page that I view the coke sign on, as a video

    Sorry I am not a teccy, much more of a one man band...so to speak lol

    Cheers

  • Hi Browntoa

    Your are a star!

    Just as big (hmmmmm not sure about that... me being quite short) as me.

    Forgot to add, I am a forgotten star, bit of an arrogant **nker these days. lol

    Cheers

    we had our message displayed on there we tuned in when we got our timescale when it would be played and i just took a screen shot of my message and saved it in paint i don't know if this is any help to you
  • Hi ead,

    Yes that would help but how do you take a screenshot and then how do you save it in paint.

    Was the timescale, for your message to be displayed, that coke gave to you, accurate?

    I have been given a 15 minute time window

    Cheers

    hi
    the timescale given is accurate
    the printscreen button is the next 1 along to the right of f12 it will either say printscreen or prt scr when your message is displayed just press the button then go and open paint you will then see along the top a button that says edit with a drop down boxes you will see an option to paste press that and your image will be displayed

    i would suggest you try it out before your message is displayed make sure it works for you
    hope this has helped
  • Hi Ead

    Got it!

    Thanks for all your help (and Browntoa)
