Lin Evans Posted May 16, 2017 Report Share Posted May 16, 2017 A freeware tool I'm quite impressed with. It's FREE, it's easy to use and it works perfectly. You can copy videos, make your own tutorials, etc. with this simple yet powerful tool. Essentially, you just open the video you wish to copy and pause it at the very start. Open SRecorder and draw a frame around the area you wish to copy - whether full screen or otherwise. Check the "record sound:" box if you want sound, then press the red record button then start your video. When the video has finished, press the "stop button" on SRecorder and save to your choice of folder and file name. Likewise for creating a step by step of your screen for tutorials, etc. No, it doesn't have edit capabilities or bells and whistles like Camtasia, but it's free - relatively tiny and works perfectly - link below: Lin http://srecorder.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted July 9, 2017 Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Hi Lin, I'm still using Faststone Capture for image and video capturing. It was not free but the 5 user family license was not that expensive. Thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted July 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2017 Hi Tom, I still use Fastone for a lot of my tutorial work, but I use srecorder for capture of video because it's not limited to 15 fps like Fastone. I find it does a much better job with YouTube captures, etc. Best regards, Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithrg Posted July 10, 2017 Report Share Posted July 10, 2017 Lin, the srecorder is also from ZD Soft Screen Recorder, but it is not free. zdsoft.co All the best, smithrg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Porter Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 From their info it would seem SRecorder is not yet compatible with W.10. It does download and will appear to record from YouTube but the saved file does not play. Mickp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 I think Windows 10 users are better off using the built in (free) screen recorder. It can record mic and YT audio. https://betanews.com/2015/07/19/windows-10-secret-screen-recording-tool/ Thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom95521 Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Another free and open source screen capture and recorder program for Windows. It's not new and seems to work better capturing PTE if you use the default color profile. It can capture higher than 30 fps if your PC is fast enough. https://getsharex.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ShareX Thanks, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
