Need advice for desktop video capture. making tut.

Post by ch1llboy »

I'm like to make a tut for halo trial memory editing. I'd much appreciate suggestion on a good freeware/open source video capture, not needed for in game play. Even perhaps thoughts on hosting it and accompanying files needed. First tut, so please if you know some key setting in capture program it would be much appreciated.

Fraps only catches windowed stuff, like games and videos.

Camtasia was perfect. beautiful interface, easy to use and full featured. Now my challange is finding a high quality hosting site that doesn't downsize my 1024*768 video capture to 320*240. vimeo is decent in that you can download the original easily and it is still kinda legible. Any ideas?

i can't say it's really easy to use... maybe i'm not so smart :oops:
try vidshot, there's a function to output into different video formats, which i consider especially useful
