Title: What video recording software do each of you use?
Post by: Andrew on October 18, 2015, 08:16:10 pm
Hey, the topic says it all.  I was wondering this because, if it's possible, I wouldn't mind taking requests and recording some matches.  Also, if you could post the recommended settings (?) for the program you use, that would be awesome.  Thanks!

I use TechSmith Camtasia Studio to record my footage. But of course that's if you're willing to spend $300 on the software. There is free software you can use. CamStudio, Fraps, HyperCam. Though CamStudio is free Fraps and HyperCam (full version) you do have to pay for it. There is also debut video.

I'm not willing to spend that kind of money, but I'll definitely check-out the free ones you've mentioned.  Thanks a lot.

They're all free if you know where to look Andrew

I use Fraps to record matches. After the matches are done, I put them in VirtualDub (It's free!) and compress the files to make them easier to work with. I then use an editing Software called WonderShare where I add music and render the video.

I use Open Broadcaster Software. It's free and I've never had issues with it.

Thanks for all of the replies, everybody!  A lot of options here.  I'll definitely check them all out.

Wink wink, nudge nudge.

Same as Barren

It's pretty good, too.

Open Broadcaster Software for streams / recording if I want, CamStudio for recording. Both free!

I ended-up going with Open Broadcaster Software, and I already recorded a match!  I will be posting it soon.

Barren, is that $300 price tag on Camtasia Studio a periodic license fee or a one-time payment?

It's now a one-time payment. Once you buy it whatever upgrade you get for the software is free

I use Hypercam 2, which is free. Then I edit the clips in movie maker, which is also free. Never had any issues with either of those programs though I can't say they're exactly the best (especially movie maker). I usually just do commentary over the matches instead of adding music since I always had problems trying to adjust the volume of the music low enough so you could still hear the commentating. YMMV
