Screen Recording


As I said in my comment on my last post, I had planned to do a Step-By-Step how-to for C# and MFCOM.  I had also planned on doing a quick and simple video tutorial of the process as well.

I’ve used SnagIt/Camtasia Studio before and while they are great products I did not really want to spend money to create a video that someone may never see.  This got me looking around for a free screen capture utility.

I happened along CamStudio which is a completely free (Personal or Commercial), open source application for recording Audio/Video.

I am rather impressed by it’s simplicity and quality so I think my search is over!

The current ‘Stable’ release is 2.0 but the 2.5 Beta is available as well.  There is also a tutorial on YouTube  which identifies a few good configuration settings.

    Nick , you may want to take a look at uTIPu as well. We set up a citrix community site at http://www.citrix.utipu.com where anyone can view can post and view screencast tips. Is similar to camstudio but also includes free easy hosting.

    Thanks Chris! I just registered at utipu.com.
    I have started a few videos but have yet to actually finish one.

    I’ll try to get one completed very soon.
