This is AWESOME software for screen recording.

I first used this so get download links that you can get off webpages but flash for a MILLISECOND in your status bar in IE.
It was awesome.

Basically, its a standalone program which lets you define a window (using the windowing tool which is activated upon clicking the record button, however recording doesn't start until you define a window) and record whatever is in that window to an AVI file.
It records at 30fps...so basically it is sitting there recording what is inside that window position 30 times per second. As stated, recording starts after you place the window where you like it after clicking the record button. Recording stops when you click the stop button.
On a side, it will record your mouse when it goes through the window.

After you click stop it asks you were to save the AVI file it wants to spit out. It will spit it out after you choose a filename and location. Then it will open in an AVI player from within the program. The AVI player is complete junk in my opinion. Yes it plays the AVI, but you can't jump to different time positions in the video. I found myself just closing the AVI player and loading the video into Windows Media Player 9 to be able to scroll the time position in the video...


Its awesome software and the best part about it is that the recording process doesnt take a toll on your processor.
I didn't see any evidence of RAM hogging either.

The only major negative, outside of the built in junky AVI player, is the interface. It hasn't been updated in ages, and it shows...welcome back to the days of Windows 98 :P.
