Record Screen For A Video Professional Software Trainers

Theres a reason that Screenflick is a very popular screen recording tool used by everyone from 8 year-old YouTubers, gamers, software developers, and professional software trainers.

How do you do it There are some key things you should know before you pick the right software to do it.

With Screenflick you can record smooth high quality recordings of your Macs screen with system audio, microphone audio, and even picture-in-picture from a video camera.

Perfect for recording application demos and tutorials on large screens.

This means you can set to record at a low frame rate, such as 3 frames per second, record yourself for an hour, speed up the recording by 10x and create a wonderfully smooth 6 minute timelapse, all while using very little energyprocessing time (battery life) during the recording itself.

Youve probably already used it when watching different movie files or listening to audio files that are on your Mac.

Well, not only can QuickTime Player watch video and audio files, but it can create them too, including screen recording movies.

After that, you can save the file, share it on YouTube, import into iMovie, etc.

Its great, but unfortunately its also a bit limited in several ways.

Here are just some of the ways QuickTime Player doesnt live up to most uses.

QuickTime Player can record your microphone and your video camera, but theres no built-in way for it to capture any of the audio playing in movies, games, or any other software running on your Mac.

Thats useful, but unfortunately H.264 is really difficult for computers to encode, so most Macs simply cant keep up; especially when recording full screen.

At large resolutions, the amount of data your computer needs to compress to create a final movie file in real-time is extremely demanding.

So as an example, QuickTime Player (or any other software using real-time H.264 encoding) on even the highest end Macs will have difficulty with recording full screen games with it leaving you with a low frame rate movie file which will look very stuttery or laggy.

That compression means the file is already lower quality quite possibly lower than you want, especially if youre going to import it into a movie editor like iMovie or Final Cut, which then will cause further quality loss.

QuickTime Player does let you pick a maximum quality mode, but then the file sizes of the recordings are enormous, requiring huge amounts of disk space which is impractical for large recordings.

Very often its useful to see when the mouse is being clicked, which button is clicked, which keyboard key-combinations are pressed for shortcuts, etcetera.

QuickTime Player can show mouse clicks, but only as a brief flash of an ugly plain black circle; It cant show which button was clicked, modifiers held during the click, or keyboard keypresses at all.

This is tremendously useful, and QuickTime Player cant do it.

Not only can you not control the recording settings so that its not wasting tons of energy and processing time recording data that wont be used anyway, but QuickTime Player also cant speed up the recording anyway.

Your choices are limited to a single movie file format, no control over the audio, and you can only export with the dimensions it already it is in, or 1080p or 720p.

Thats it. No specifying custom dimensions, no scaling by percentage, no control over aspect ratios, no choice over the quality of the exported file none of that.

In summary, its good for capturing a small area of the screen, with no system audio, for a short duration of time, where you want no control over the size, quality, or format of the result.
