Chessbase 10

[MindWars]

Does anyone know if and how you can create your own chess training DVD's,
with training arrows, videos, etc, like the ones Chessbase creates, using
Chessbase 10? Is there some other software that can do this?

Also, is there a way to create a diagrammed position pdf file from Chessbase
10?

Try using http://camstudio.org/ and making the moves yourself (to get the arrows).

Convert any document to PDF using http://www.dopdf.com/.

Both are Freeware.

Thanks a lot for the link. I'm check out that software and see what it can do.

It's not the same though. With a ChessBase-created package the moves (game position) and video are synchronised, allowing you to skip back to a particular move and video skips to the correct place (though it does appear a bit clunky). This is a very powerful feature. It's a shame you cannot make your own, but you can probably understand the reason. $$$$$

Exactly. I was hoping to do a bit better than the crappy Dzindzihashvilli videos. Roman is an excellent chess teacher, but the production quality of his videos couldn't be much worse. And it sounds like he's talking out of a mic that came free in a cereal box also.
