Need Video Screen Capture Software Suggestions
by Suzy Shaw on May 17, 2005 at 4:29:37 pm

I am working on a series of training videos that will play back on CD & web and am in need of a program that outputs video files that can be posted in FCP.

Below is what I'm hoping for and I'm looking for any suggestions of how to get there:
1) .mov screen capture of software in action; would like it to automatically add highlight where mouse clicks; ideally a MAC based program (Camtasia like software)
2) high quality, screen subject has has lots of small detail
3) captures audio and video

Please let me know if you have used any software that might work this purpose.
Thank you,
Suzy

Hey Suzy

i second Jerry's Advice, SnapzPro X2 is excellent, and I use it a lot. It records video smoothly and cleanly, and looks great.

Regarding SnapZ Pro 2, you need the more expensive $69 version if you wanna do movies.
