It has a time line where you organize stuff, which reminds me of Flash editing software, and a lot of tools to handle balloons and info quads that are produced automatically while you recorded your video tutorial(if you recorded in that mode, you can record as plain video, only). (not using the latest just have not needed to update, I don't know how is the latest.

I would not be able to justify any expense with any capture software from any company, anyway,(I'm not a teacher) and am pretty happy with the free version. The pro version seems super powerful(catches my attention the html 5 export) and indeed very focused on serious teaching materials production. It offers a lot of power for training materials, making tutorials, etc, even with just the free version.

I used to use camtasia, but am loving this little tool as well. I add it here because I have had EXCELLENT performance in full motion recording at full screen (I work at 1920x1080 res. Snagit is from Techsmith too, but it costs U$ 50Īctive Presenter, FREE edition (there are commercial options for those needed some special feature) They record until 15 min for free, and can record without limit of time for US$15/year. Screencast-o-matic: It seems to be a record screen on-line. It seems there is a time limit for video capture (5min). Jing is from Techsmith, the same company that comercialize Camtasia, but is is free. Beyond this, i think Camtasia Studio is very expensive (US$300). The recent releases have for sure a lot of tools, but what i have is enough to what i am doing.

I use an very old Camtasia Studio, never upgraded, but that allows me to record all the video tutorials in youtube Wings3D Channel. Optigon, maybe you can stick this thread: my intention is to put together the references to softwares to screen capture, essential to make tutorials, for example, and exemplify some users difficults/doubts.
