etl2pcapng VS ScreenToGif

Copy the ETL file to a workstation, then use etl2pcapng converter from Microsoft. (https://github.com/microsoft/etl2pcapng)

etl2pcapng allows you to view ndiscap packet captures with Wireshark, thus overcoming the Windows use of etl files intended for ETW-centric tools like Microsoft Message Analyzer. NotAnExpert2020 explains, it "converts a netsh trace start/stop trace into something wireshark can read."

https://github.com/microsoft/etl2pcapng - etl2pcapng - converts a netsh trace start/stop trace into something wireshark can read.

netsh trace can do this out of the box. With the death of Message Analyzer, the easiest way to get packet data out of the ETL generated is this utility from MS: https://github.com/microsoft/etl2pcapng

Going to say not wireshark. Use the built in native windows packet capture) and convert it to a pcapng for analysis within wireshark with etl2pcapng.

If you have an older version of Windows Server that doesn't have pktmon on it you can also use the netsh method to capture to an ETL file. - Netsh trace start#start) - Now it used to be that I would convert the ETL file to .cap using Message Analyzer, but Microsoft has retired it and you can't download it anymore. In good news it appears that Microsoft has actually released a converter, https://github.com/microsoft/etl2pcapng, to do exactly this.

By following these steps, your diagram will be exported as an SVG, keeping the animation intact. If you find yourself on a platform that doesn't support SVG, you can use external programs like ScreenToGif. This program lets you record your screen and export the recording as a GIF. Handy for platforms that prefer GIFs over SVGs.

ScreenToGif has a very nice editor that can make cinemagraphs, remove duplicate frames, etc.

ffmpeg can make gifs, but I don't know how you would do stuff like static regions. It could probably be done with some masking and filtering, but I think you would need to make the mask separately so why not use a GUI gif editor instead?

If you need to show the screen, you should take a screen shot of the entire window, via Window->SaveScreenshot, rather than using a cell phone or something. Take the entire screen instead of just the one part you think is broken. The reason it's broken is not the part, but something else, or you would have already figured out why it's broken. (Sadly, blender no longer has built in screen-animation recording for some reason, but I'm told https://www.screentogif.com/ is a good tool to have handy.)

Also depending on what you're doing Screen to GIF is fantastic.

Screen to gif is a nice programm for that. Have a look at it: https://www.screentogif.com/

Happily. Is free https://www.screentogif.com/ I record the screen, halve the gif size, add the steps in writing at the bottom of the gif, then paste it into a google doc.

I just used the first result which comes up when you search for a GIF recorder in google.

ScreenToGIF is my go-to. Easy to capture, solid set of editing tools, and a top-notch compression algorithm for saving at a high-quality.
