My little boy uses aviscreen classic (freeware) to capture video from
the screen for school projects - http://www.bobyte.com/
I'm using Microsoft Movie Maker2 with 9 year olds and they can cope with
it.
PCAdvisor UK Feb edition had a ULead video editor on the cover disk - it
looks more competent than Movie Maker but I haven't tried it.
We use Bink and Smack (radgametools.com) to do any batch conversions -
my digital camera only does .mov which Microsoft Movie Maker won't
recognise for some strange reason. Anyway, Bink and Smack converts
satisfactorily.

Hi Guys,
Re - video / audio / screen capture for tutorial vids, here are some
ideas. Free where possible:
*Windows Media Encoder (free) - specific to windows though:
*http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/9series/encoder/default.aspx
I have not tried this out, but I am sure if one uses the WME the
output will be WMV, one could then convert the WMV to any other format.
*Wink [ as others here have pointed out ]:
*http://www.debugmode.com/wink/
This app makes screen grab files for tutorials. Not sure if it does audio.
*Audacity:
*http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Freeware Audio editor
*Wax:
*http://www.debugmode.com/wax/
is a high performance and flexible video compositing and special
effects software. May be possible to use to combine the video and
audio files????
ONES THAT COST:
*Bulent's Screen Recorder 3:
*http://www.thesilver.net/index.htm
Not free, but does the lot it seems - $24 or so
*Capturewizpro:
*http://www.pixelmetrics.com/CapWizPro/index.htm $30
*1st Screen Recorder & Video Capture: *
http://www.screenrecorder.us/ $30 -
looks ideal and good
*Desktop Screen Record 5:
*http://www.recordscreen.com/ $30
ANY ONE ELSE WHO CAN SUGGEST = F R E E = APPS FOR MAKING SCREENGRAB
TUTORIALS ????
Cheers
