Screen Capture
-
This makes a printscreen : it does not record a video.

I Like SnagIt.

I was considering doing a video in connection with an article I'm writing. What (free) software can I use to capture the Vistual Studio window (as opposed to the entire screen) as I'm using it? EDIT =============== I think the term I should have used was "screencast" as opposed to "screen capture".

It is optimized for Live-Streaming but can also record locally. If you have NVENC-compatible Nvidia-GPU (7xx or newer) or an Intel i5/i7 3xxx or newer you can use their hardware encoding to record with virtually no performance hit. OBS if free as in free beer, open-source and can record the whole screen or only single windows (Vista SP2 or newer required.) If you need help, drop into our IRC help channel, #obsproject @ quakenet (or use webchat from the OBS homepage).

Luckily you can turn the "check for updates" function off and continue using 7 in it's fully functional form. Message me if you want more info. Edit - Found the link[^]

It allows you to capture screen regions, select specific appliccations or whole screen captures. It's free and there is no nag-ware. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/devschool/archive/2011/03/07/community-clips-one-of-the-best-and-easiest-free-video-screen-capture-available.aspx[^]
It was broke, so I fixed it.

But you liked it... and understood it.

Well damn! Thank you. :-D I've spent years cropping the entire screen to get only the focus window. Sigh.

For clipping I use greenshot[^], can't recommend it highly enough. For capturing video of keystrokes there's CamStudio[^], I havent really used this much but reviews are great.
New version: WinHeist Version 2.1.0 My goal in life is to have a psychiatric disorder named after me. I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.
Definitely Greenshot for still capture--very configurable, nice UI to get only the image you want, and configurable with regards to saving, edit tools, etc. Especially good with capturing screenshots of dynamic menus (web pages and such); just hit the "Print Screen" button and you have everything you need.

Whoops!..missed that detail! I did think it odd that JSOP wouldn't have known that! :laugh:

It has 2 capture buttons, one for video and one for just the screen. You can save the file locally or upload it to their server and share the link. The capture Video works great! As an example: [^] We have been using it for years. Love it! Kirk Out!

For screenshots I give my vote to Greenshot, been using it for a while now. I recall some problems with capturing the Chrome window but couldn't put my finger on the cause being due to a dual screen setup or capturing the browser itself. CamStudio looks great will have to give it a shot :) (shamelessly returning to topic)
