Screen Capture as AVI File

Hi guys,

I am searching for a tool which allows to capture the whole screen as a AVI file.

I would like to record some effects from visualisations tools. (WinAmp, Geforce etc.)

Any help would be appriciated.

Best

Try SnagIt from http://www.techsmith.com/

It works quite well for me, and you can configure the frame rate and codec, and add your own watermarks to the AVI's.

I use version 6 myself, but I see 7 has been released. I've yet to try it...

Athlon XP 2400 [2.0ghz] - Volcano 7+
512mb Kingston SDram PC133
Geforce 4 ti4200
Maxtor 7200rpm - 40gb + 80gb + 120gb
Sound Blaster Live Player 5.1
Hitachi GD-8000 16x DVD-Rom
Liteon LTR-32123S
Creative Labs FPS-1500 EAX

What he said...

Snagit and HyperSnap are the best two programs for capturing screens and movies of screens (Basic Windows Stuff)...

Both have trouble doing D3D and OpenGL though for doing these use FRAPS...

I use all 3 of these all the time - to bring down the size of these AVI and other file formats use VirtualDub which is Open Source and FREE... You can make the file half or better in size with this...

Antec 600Plus Mini-Tower (600W)
AMD Athlon XP 3200+
WIN XP SP2
Asus A7N8X Deluxe v2.0
PNY Geforce 6800 Ultra
3 Gig Corsair XMS 3200 DDR (400MHZ)
(2) 80 Gig Seagate Serial ATA Barracuda V
Plextor PX-716A
