Subject:Screen activity capture software From:Steven Anderson <Steven -dot- Anderson -at- BRIGHTWARE -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 17 Aug 1998 15:40:34 -0700
Greetings everyone!
I'm trying to create an online training document and I would like to
include movies of on-screen activity. In other words, in addition to
telling the user how to do something, I would like to show how it is
done. What I would like to be able to do is capture part (or all) of
the screen and then save it as a quicktime or an avi file which I can
then edit and add a soundtrack to.
Does anyone have recommendations for software that can do this? Or even
two different products (one to do the capture, one to do the editing)?
