can anyone recommend a screen video capture program?

What codec do you use? I tried all, including xvid, but the video always turns out with greyed out colours
Here are the settings that I use. No guarantee that their the best (i'm not a codec pro) but they work very well for me. http://g.imagehost.org/0593/Settings.png[^] [edit] note that the "BitRate" slider has a huge deal to do with the quality of the compression. Set it 7000ish and adjust to taste.

I tried Camstudio, but the quality is too poor and the sound isn't synched properly. Thanks for any suggestions.
Another vote for Jing by Tech Smith. For free, it rocks. My only gripe would be how long it takes to launch it. But since I have this in my Windows Startup, it doesn't bother me too often. Once it is loaded, it does everything I need to grab screenshots and do simple mark-up, or record short video (has to be 5 minutes or less). You can upgrade from the free version to a paid version for $15/year. When you do, you get a video-record option that allows you to record in .mpeg format. Or you can still choose the option that is available with the free version: Flash.

Sure Ed, Command-Shift-4 is the best I have found. Best of all it's free and part of every macbook (or any other mac for that matter) because it's part of OS X. I work on four machines, Vista/PC (love it), XP/PC on two dev boxes (no problem), and my own, newly acquired, first mac ever (a whole new way of enjoying life, on a computer that is). I find many other developers and IT pros buying mac products for their own, personal computers. In fact, I was exposed to this new (new to me anyway) approach for developing apps targeting the Microsoft platform when I attended our .NET user group. What I found was a well known Microsoft presenter that did all his work on a macbook running VMware. Great presentation with no apparent app execution speed issues. Wow! What a breath of fresh air this has been. I'm not trying to stir-up any fights or flame wars, just giving an honest appraisal, maybe a useful one for future considerations.

Hi, personally i prefer Wink. http://www.debugmode.com/wink/[^] Great features provide: 1. Record screen motion, you can playback later. 2. Output to flash, or executable flash (in .exe), and source file saved in picture, can be edit (can select compression rate) 3. Record voice. 4. You able to add play/stop point in the middle of video, or add notation box to the screen. (since it is flash) 5. flexible capture area on screen. 6. It is free! Sufficient for me! Regards, tzuhsun
