Easy, efficient tool to record on-screen activity

Sometimes the best way to explain something to someone who's not very skillful with computer is showing them a video. And Free Screen to Video is one of the easiest ways to record your screen.

Free Screen to Video is a simple video utility that saves any activity on your screen to several video formats, including AVI and SWF (Flash). You have three capturing options (full screen, active window or user-selected area) plus the ability to optionally record sound and capture mouse events as well. The program's configuration settings enable you to configure several technical parameters regarding audio and video capturing.

That said, don't expect Free Screen to Video to be some sort of free, stripped-down Camtasia. This tool is meant to be very simple in usage and functionalities; it doesn't have any video editing options and the results are not perfect – especially when capturing the mouse: in my tests the cursor was always a few centimeters away from the actual mouse action!

Nevertheless, Free Screen to Video is still a handy tool to record quick desktop videos for tutorials, demos and other educational purposes.

With Free Screen to Video you'll be able to capture any on-screen activity and save it to various video formats, in a very simple way.

Do recommend if you like simple and easy software.. I use this really simple rpogram all the time now to record webinars and video lessons of using PS5 for my friends and family. Adore super easy navigation - I needed no user's guide, though I'm not too well with the software like that. But I loved the simplicity of it. And how cool are the options and quality. Good job, authors! Thank you so very much!:* :) Pros: very clear navigationvery nice, clean and clear toolbars and options Cons: Slows down your processor if you have skype on and calling someone - might disrupt the sound and the vision

Can't save videos, don't get it.. Horrible. It keeps saying that it couldn't save the video or something like that, and if the rating could go into the negatives, I'd rate it -5 stars. It's a waste of time in general, don't get it. Cons: CAN'T ******* SAVE!
