Software to make a movie of using software

cats_five · 25 Jun 2012 at 12:19

I am wanting some free software that I can use to capture a window on my PC, into a format I can splice with video from my camera using Windows Moviemaker.

The idea is to create a short video demonstrating how to download from a very old, antiquated bit of hardware - I'll be using my camera to take video of using the hardware, and want to splice in with the software side.

Suggestions?

Thanks, had wondered about it. Will give it a whirl.

Whirled and it flew just fine. Will investigate the annotations features.

You are probably right about the annotations - and it's not that obvious how to use it, at least not to me.

Good point about just one compression between start and finish, and I will make a note of Lagarith incase I get the same problem.
