Best Screen Recording Software? (Free)

Hey all please tell me a little about them if you know any good ones.

i need to get one really just to keep safe for all the scamming out there.

Thankyou!!

You could always just use CamStudio, pretty good quality without all the extras of other software which you don't really need for what you're going to use it for and an easy to use interface. You can check it out here.

free version of fraps

 

CamStudio is the best imo, fairly easy to use also.

 

[Artzio]

Fraps imo. Haven't used any others.

I guess people dont use the free hypercam anymore? it was always kinda crappy, but it was free.

CamStudio and BSR Recorder

 

[DaeroN]

Fraps....

 

[Bacterial]

I think camstudio is the best

 

[Renmanen]

Depends, Sadly the best Screen Recording Softwares costs.

 

[Dragk1ller]

I'd say fraps.

I use the free version of fraps and it works great.

 

i have tried to use CamStudio. i cant figure out where abouts my vids are getting saved too. Anyone know how to change it?

Fraps is really good.

Personally if you can still find a hypercam.. thats the best imo.. I still have mine from like 2007 and I still have vids from then too when I started doin em.. ahh good days tbh .. Anyways you have so many options though with hypercam if you get over the label at the top left or if you buy it

As suggested above, CamStudio would be a good option.

My preference, however, would be to acquire Camtasia, Fraps, or Bandicam. There's a trial version of Bandicam and, unlike Fraps, it doesn't limit the length of the recordings. Both Fraps and Bandicam do leave watermarks on the upper portion of the screen in their respective trial versions.

Best of luck!

Camtasia rocks! but it's not free though, you'll get a trial of 30 or 60 days not sure.

CamStudio for Desktop Recording. Fraps and/or Dxtory for games. (Dxtory is a lot better than Fraps, In most respects.)

hypercam is shit compared to camstudio imo.

i have used camstudio for all my recordings and never had problems

I don't know if you explicitly mean for RS only, but Dxtory has worked wonders for me in real games like BF3/Skyrim/MW3. It's 10x better than FRAPS simply for the fact I can play in 1080p but record in 720p without any stuttering on playback. Also it allows you to record in 30 FPS (which is all you need for videos) while playing uncapped FPS. So I play MW3 at 1080p + like 200 FPS but record in 720p/30 FPS and get the best of both worlds.
