Screen recording software?

Hey guys, I am just wondering what you guys use for software to use to record your screen? is it free? Also would prefer one where I could record sound also, or do you do that seperately?

Thanks in advance.

I used to use camtasia, ages ago.. not free but it worked well, and I think there is a trial with a watermark.

Otherwise google "Freeware screen capture software"

i use screenhunter 5.0 it is free and works well allot of people just use windows print screen of the keyboard seems to work fine alsoi just prefer screen hunter

You mean screenshot or video? Here's what I use:

Screenshot = Snipping tool that comes with Vista

Video = BSR Screen Recorder 4. It's free and works great. Google it.

I picked up camtasia and it works great!

For a simple screenshoot use the built in functions Print Screen for Windows XP or what even way you do it in Vista. I am sure that Windows 7 function will be similar to Vistas.

I refuse to use Vista so I have no idea how that function works.

If you only want to get a screenshot of the actually table and not the entire screen, click on the window in question, hold down the ALT key while pushing the Print Screen button. Then paste it to Paint or what ever program you use to editing pictures and move on from there.

Someone mentioned Camtasia, but that does cost. A good product though. I am still trying to figure out a good way to compress the video because the files can get quite large. BTW, Camtasia also records audio if you want that as well.

I am going to look into BSR Screen Recorder 4. From what I can see on the web page it has a no limit free trail and records sound as well, which is something I want.

If you don't really want or need audio there are several programs that are totally free on the net that will serve your purpose.

Just type in Screen recorder freeware in your favorite search engine and you will get several to select from.

Search "MediaCoder". Works great for me and it's free. I usually record an AVI with BSR and convert/compress it with MediaCoder to Flash. Then I upload the Flash to Blip.tv. Works great.

Use h.264 compression in Mediacoder or whatever software you use, it is one of the compression formats. Blip.tv is a great streaming site.

Screen VidShot for Windows and Macvide ScreenCap for Mac OS

You should be able to find some freeware on download.com that will work. Be sure to check out the ratings and reviews first though.

google the software with keyword screencasting

Now i'm using DemoCreator, a demo tutorial screen recording software, you can import narration into your video, too.

search this if you want it free : TechSmith Camtasia Studio v6.0.3 Incl Keymaker HAPPY BIRTHDAY-ZWT

Fixed your post.

+1. Piracy is for lowlifes.

think of it like; first try and buy if you like.
or like stealing the blinds lol

They have a 30 day free trial to try before you buy.

What you suggest is just outright wrong.

i dont know if recording is actually the smartest thing to do, because your basically capturing evidence in form of a photo or recording... i'd just be careful if i were u
