Cool Screen Capture Software

Here is perhaps one of the best (still) free programs on the net. It's called Cam Studio and it allows you to record your screen activity into into standard AVI video files.

"If you move the cursor, launch a new program, type some text, click a few buttons, or select some menus - anything that you see on your screen - CamStudio will be able to record all these and allow you to play them back later on." - masternewmedia.com

And here is the great part! It is a totally FREE program, and you can download it here

Though it has always been a free program (labeled "open source"), the company Macromedia recently began offering the same program with a different name, "Robodemo". If you search for Cam Studio you will eventually be routed to Macromedia's site to buy it.

It seems whenever something really good is out there, and it's free, then some company comes along and wants to sell it.

Here is more information about the program:

"You can use CamStudio to develop videos to demonstrate features of a new software, for creating movies used in user training or tutorials, for tracking the progress of a program that executes for a long time, or for recording the sequence of steps that cause the occurrence of bugs in faulty software.

You can create demonstrations of programs by recording the movement of the cursor, the selection of menus, the entering of text or the display of messages. These demonstrations, when shown to users, can illustrate features and usage of the program in a short period time with crystal clarity.

The recorded movies can be added to the accompanying help files of commercial software to make them more professional.

The recorded videos, if converted to a stream-able format, can also be posted to your websites to provide extra help and just-in-time customer support."
