Recommend a screen recording application anyone?

[mr rou-rou]

Hi,

as the title suggests, I want to make some training videos for work, or training mpegs or training .avi's.

I want something to record my movements about the screen while I add a narrative via a mic, if any of you whores can recommend any?

I can google some up but there might be a whore out there that has done this before,

For Mac there's Snapz Pro. Very good app from what I can remember. Ambrosia Software make some cracking utilities.

You could try Camtasia studio, I found this when I was searching for a program to screencap frames from film AVIs ('SnagIt' which looks quite handy). Haven't attempted to 'buy' it yet, but you can try it free for 30 days.

Do Lotus still do "Screencam", and is it any good?

Just that I'd second this choice of applications.  Both are from the same company (Techsmith) but SnagIt seems to be the more intuitive to setup (but again I've only been using the trial versions here)... it appears the Camtasia Screen Recorder wants to splash "This is a trial version" in the centre of the capture... the SnagIt trial won't do this.  SnagIt has a nicer/happier interface, with custom presets.

There's a plugin called Wink that will do this in Vegas Video. I know it's a bit of much application to be able to do this one specific thing, but it does work.
