| 476971 | 2006-08-08 02:01:00 | I wish to capture video straight off my PC screen and it seems that there are lot of programmes out there that will do it. I'd be grateful if someone could recommend a good and simple one for me - freeware or open source. I'd also like to be able to edit the captured video afterward. The sort of thing I am hoping for is something like a video version of Audacity, the open source audio editor which is brilliant. Thanks Baz |

If for say a software 'how to' demo or presentation then the mighty Google-gods to the rescue: www.google.co.nz (I found a good one a few weeks ago but have completely forgotten it's name & it's on my work PC sorry...). Haven't tried it myself but 'Wink' - www.debugmode.com - may be worth a go. If you need a faster frame rate (ie: for a movie) it may take some more digging. If the case what source does the video have? ie: streaming, video via TV Tuner card, DVD...? |

You can only use it for a certain period of time before the trial expires (or use for certain times, or having limited video length, cannot remember what the trial's limitation exactly is). It is good, you can choose whether to capture full screen, or a particular area / window, the compression method, framerate etc. |

Best thing is it's free :D To edit it you could use moviemaker. Basic but will do the job. Hope you have windows xp cause thats what you'll need to use it. |
