| | I am currently using the freeware version of CamStudio to create screencast videos, which I then convert to FLV, and I post the FLV movies on the intranet at work. I am happy with the video quality of these videos.
However with CamStudio I have a small problem with the spacebar. It is the default command key to stop the screen recording, and I although I looked everywhere, I couldn't find where I can change this. I sometimes need to write stuff in text fields and text boxes, and it is very annoying that I have to find various workarounds - like using a dot instead of the spacebar - to make it work.
Before using CamStudio, I was using Lotus ScreenCam, but they store video files in a proprietary format (.scm) which no other video conversion software knows what to do with. Besides, Lotus ScreenCam has been desupported.
Can anyone recommend some good screen capture video software that they have experience with and that works well?

Have you seen or tried Wink from Debugmode.com? Free download and install... the price is right. Only thing is I am not certain about the produced file type. *edit* It does do FLASH *edit* And the price is right...

Excellent tip, thanks a lot !!! I've been exploring Wink for the past couple of hours and it looks promising. What I would like to be able to do with Wink is take still frames from one .wnk project and insert them into a second .wnk project, kind of like alternating live-captured sequences and interspersing Powerpoint slides. I'm still researching the help for how to do that. I know Wink has a feature that allows you to insert text boxes, but I want a strict separation between comments and live video, That's why I prefer Powerpoint slides. Also, I would like to be able to do fade-out-to-black and fade-in-from-black transition effects, just like Windows Movie Maker allows you to do. By the way, I'm not happy with the degradation in video quality that Windows Movie Maker produces, So I'm looking for alternative means for how to create those transition effects. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

This is what the Publishers of Webinaria said about the program which is an excellent program QUOTE Record your desktop screen movements, voice narration and Webcam and upload them to the web in Flash format for free. Using your microphone and/or webcam, quickly start recording your desktop presentation, demo or screencast. Modify the capture area from your active window to a customized area, adjust your hardware or recording quality, and edit the audio and webcam properties frame by frame. Convert from an AVI file to FLV using the latest compression technology, and upload to our Flash player. Host with us for free and receive ratings, comments and generate leads for your software demo, website screencast or business presentation.
This version improves synchronization of audio, Webcam and screencasting at various frame and bit rates As said in the description above, Webinaria can capture you record your screen and then convert it to FLV. I myself use it and it one of the best! Best part, its FREE!

You can capture your screen using the windows media encoder (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/forpros/encoder/default.mspx) . For the text boxed, fades etc ... you can use windows movie maker. Last but not least, you can convert the .wmv file into a .flv file using Super from erightsoft (http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html). It's all free

Also, I would like to be able to do fade-out-to-black and fade-in-from-black alteration effects, just like Windows Movie Maker allows you to do. By the way, I'm not blessed with the abasement in video superior that Windows Movie Maker produces, So I'm searching for another agency for how to actualize those alteration effects. _________________ damn
