Screen capturing video software?

Hey guys,

I've created some power point presentations that I'm going to be using as a bonus item to an e-book that I sell, and I need a way to convert these into streaming online video.

I assume I need some sort of software that can capture a section of my screen as I play out the presentation? Or is there a specific way to convert a power point presentation into streaming video?

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Sean

 

Try Macromedia Captivate.

 

Hello Sean,

Have you tried opening your presentations in OpenOffice? It can export as a flash swf, but without transitions and animations. If you need them, check this free program:

I found few threads on Digitalpoint Forums about screen capturing. They are very old threads. Do not reply them.

Thanks guys! I'll check all of this out.

 

I know that Fraps can capture your screen. But I don't think it's free.
