You guys know what software is best for making desktop tutorials? I tried a few, but I really hate the laggy mouse effect. |

It is a bit pricy for personal use, but it is easy to use and I had great success with 2.0. Never used 3.0 so not sure if it is as good. -- We are all athiests about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further. ~Richard Dawkins |

| reply to dadkins tried this too. It has laggy mouse, and tends to crash on vista if the video becomes too long. |

Last I checked, fraps doesn't do desktop capturing unless you have a specific application that uses an overlay system (video playback with h/w accel., directx/opengl games.). -- I swear, some people should have pace-makers installed to free up the resources.

| reply to vd853 Will Windows Media Encoder do what you are wanting to do? I think it's still free. I haven't tried it since switching from XP to Vista, so you might experience problems using it with Vista, but I believe there is a hotfix for those who do happen to run into a problem. -- Life is a long journey on a short bus. |
