    OK, I want to put up a small video with sound of me demoing my product in real time

    so I want to record me moving around my PC and interacting with my product and then save that video so folks can see it on my website

    I have seen these and it would appear only a product called camtasia is out there

    but this is $300

    anyone else can recommend anything ?

    thanks

    Last year a purchased a little Sony Digital 8 handicam for about 300 bucks. This thing is all digital and has a firewire output. It comes with a piece of software that lets you capture your video/audio in real digital time.

    Works quite well and the quality is top-notch!

    If you have two computers you can record on video in what the other outputs via video out.

    Internet video suite handles this for cheaper, I think about $99.

    But frankly nothing compares to Camtasia in my mind. They have a brilliant product and the end result looks really good once you learn how to use the software.

    Camtasia is without a doubt the easiest to use and the most web friendly!

    I can't live without it!

    Myself I'm using this Android Screen Video Capture Tool for recording program demos to upload to YouTube or problem recreation, creating video-based information products to sell my products or recording new tricks and techniques I discover on my favorite software program.

    No, why would I do that? I don't need to make useless posts to spam my sig links.

    Yes, of course. There must be some free open source for you though I haven't tried to find a good one to recommend you.

    CamStudio can do the job, not better than Camtasia of course.
