CamStudio records screen and audio activity on your computer to create AVI video files and turns them into bandwidth-friendly, streaming Flash videos (SWF). CamStudio also lets you add screen captions or video annotations to your recordings through anti-aliased images, or by producing a Webcam movie of yourself (screen in screen) on your desktop. And CamStudio comes with its own lossless codec that produces crystal clear results with a much smaller filesize compared some popular codecs, like Microsoft Video 1. Additional options include cursor controls, the ability to record an entire screen or a portion of it, and selections for output quality. Best of all, CamStudio is easy to use and navigate, plus it includes a built-in Help file.

  • lol y'all need to chill, I've been using camstudio for years and have never run into such problems with viruses or any other "catastrophic" incidents. Nick Smith was obviously right in one thing he said, which was the false positive results in most of your antivirus software. I know for a fact that most of these antivirus scans are biased, and sometimes say that the file is infected when it is not. Also note that I'm mostly reffering to viruses such as trojans or malware, but adware is another story,...

  • Why would a recording software have its default setting to not record the audio??!?!?!?!?? This has got to be one of the worst software design decisions I have ever had the misfortune to come across. I downloaded this software to record a family member's singing stream and it was not until I went to watch it later that I discovered it did not record the audio. This is a moment I will never be able to recover. Just because you give something away for free does not make it acceptable to make a crappy... Read More »

  • Good, worked as expected. One issue: IT COMPLETELY RUINED MY VOLUME. Before using this, my volume was amazing. I couldn't even have it at full volume or it would blow my headphones out. After using this, I turn the volume all the way up and I can barely hear anything. I uninstalled the program, and guess what? MY VOLUME WAS STILL BROKEN. I HAD NO ISSUES UNTIL I USED THIS JUNK. DO NOT DOWNLOAD AT ALL. EVER!!!!! Read More »

  • Just calm yo tits guys, there is no virus FFS lol, all your antivirus scanners are probably just giving off false positive results. Had been using this for years and I've never come across any problems with viruses and whatnot. But I don't recommend using this because I've had problems with the program itself, such as it not being able to use the MP4 format. Read More »

  • I watched the video, followed it, and it didn't seem to do anything I told it. Too hard to use, even for an experienced computer person. Read More »
