Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
xvidcap |
Linux |
Screen and Audio Capture |
mpeg(4), avi, mov, others, with sorenson, divx, mpeg, others. |
Default versions do not work with pulseaudio, and thus recent Ubuntu installations (Ubuntu 11.4 and 11.10). Workaround is to install from source, and launch with padsp. Provides a GUI, easy to use |
ffmpeg |
Linux |
Screen and Audio Capture |
Anything except apple pro |
Pure command line tool. For Ubuntu, must build from source (directions), and then command lines like these. FFmpeg is also suitable for format conversion and audio overlay. |
recordmydesktop |
Linux |
Screen and Audio Capture |
ogv (must transcode results, can use transmageddon) |
Works out of the box on Ubuntu 11.10 |
Screen-Cast-O-Matic (Free Version, Pro costs $12/year) |
Windows, Mac, Linux |
Screen & Audio Capture |
MP4, AVI, FLV (also save directly to YouTubeHD or Screen-cast-o-matic.com acct) |
Runs from browser (Java applet). Has an easy setting for recording in "Full HD" resolution (1280x720). Can auto-letterbox smaller resolution recordings when saving. Very easy to use. Can highlight mouse cursor & all mouse clicks. 15-minute recording limit. Videos are branded with a small logo in lower left corner (Pro version is free of branding). |
Jing (Free Version, Pro costs $14.95/year) |
Windows or Mac |
Screen & Audio Capture |
FLV (Pro version also offers MP4) |
Easy to use, but has minimal options. Seem to only be able to record either full-screen or a specific window (no options to record a selected area or part of screen). 5-minute recording limit. Videos are branded (Pro version is free of branding). |
CamStudio (Open Source!) |
Windows Only |
Screen & Audio Capture |
AVI or FLV |
Lots of options/configurations available (most often compared to Camtasia in terms of options). Not always as easy to use or user friendly as other free screencasting tools (see Screen-Cast-O-Matic or Jing), but it definitely comes with options & tools comparable to Camtasia. |
Camtasia Studio (Cost: $299, 30-day free trial available) |
Windows or Mac |
MP4, M4V, AVI, FLV, Silverlight, MOV, RM |
The most fully featured screencasting software out there, and quite easy to use. But, it comes at a higher price. |
