Re: free screen capture software

I think that macs have a program that you can use to get screenshots.
I'm not sure about PCs, though

Re: free screen capture software

Hmm... I use CamStudio. Why isn't it good?

If you don't want to use CamStudio, may I recommend HyperCam.

My first screen recorder was HyperCam, and quite frankly, it was awful. The colour always gets messed up so that there was like, a "circle" thing in the middle of the screen.

Did you adjust the settings on CamStudio? Because I got lag too when I first tried it, but I just changed the settings a bit and it worked fine.

CamTasia's good though. It costs money, but it is possible to get it for free.

its not the lag. its that it wont save the video it says "cannot open video file" when i try to save it.

Re: free screen capture software

You could use FRAPS, but that leaves a watermark if you don't pay.

Re: free screen capture software

I've been looking for them too. I found Cam Studio, but it messed up my audio. I ended up using a default livestream app called dyyno. I'm livestreaming right now, actually  big_smile

Re: free screen capture software

The latest version of QuickTime X does screen video capture. You need Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) or later. Do File > New Screen Recording. (And yes, I know, it's not quite the latest version.

PrtSc--SysRq, but you probably want to do a video, not a single picture
If you're super patient, you could do a stop motion (no. don't)

Re: free screen capture software

If you want anything good for windows, you have to pay for it. I have fraps and it's great if you've got £25 to spend.
