Camtasia Mac 1.1 Out Now

Posted Apr.09, 2010 under Mac, News

Camtasia for Mac 1.1There has been alot of exciting news on the PC side of Camtasia lately, but today I have some interesting stuff happening on the Mac side…

Following the feedback from the Mac community, Camtasia for Mac has now its first ever update since the first release, Camtasia for Mac version 1.1. This upgraded version has been updated with the most frequently requested features. The new version includes the following new features:

  • Region Capture

A specific area on your screen can now be selected instead of recording the entire screen. You don’t need to crop and zoom anymore as you will be recording only the exact part that you want to capture.

  • Audio Enhancements

Noises coming from clicking, typing, fan and other distractions can now be removed. This audio enhancement can also regulate the pitch of your voice and remove the clicking sound when you’re speaking closely to the microphone.

  • Monitor Selection

If you have multiple displays on your Macintosh, you can now select which monitor you’d like to record.

  • Voice-Only Recording

This feature allows you to capture only the microphone audio without recording the screen video. You can also create and edit a voice-over separate from the screen recording so you can easily make changes in the narration.

  • Pause and Resume

If you’re recording a long video, you can now go into “Pause” mode while trying to gather your thoughts or clear your throat. With this feature, unwanted content can be avoided while recording.

Using these new features will surely result in a hassle-free recording experience and high quality projects.

For current users of Camtasia for Mac 1.0, start using these new features now by checking for an update directly in your software then select Install Update on the Software Update window.

Until next time ;-)

Camtasia for Mac Review

Posted Sep.18, 2009 under Camtasia for Mac, Mac

Hello Friends,

Finally I am proud to give you some great news that many of you  have been waiting for or know someone who would appreciate that Camtasia for Mac has been released!

TechSmith  the leading provider of screen-capture and screen-recording solutions never disappoint their clients they are always ready to listen to you and provide what you the consumer needs.

If you are a Snagit fan no worries the Snagit for Mac is in development but in the mean time we have an alternative screen capture software that works with Mac ‘Voila‘. If you would like to be updated on the development of Snagit for mac you may subscribe here.

As a  Windows user who recently purchased an  iMac I downloaded the 30-day trial version to try Camtasia for Mac myself and truly it offers super cool things any Mac user would not want to miss.

I will give you a sneak preview of my findings…

SmartFocus®

TechSmith’s proprietary technology that keeps track of every detail that I use when editing, details such as window size, location, typing and mouse clicks – that sure saved me a “wholatta” time!

Camera Recording

Lets me capture a video from my iSight or a DV camera connected via firewire.

cammac-prod1Production Wizard

The Production Wizard allowed me to choose  which program I want to use to share, export or upload my work. With a bunch of options to choose including – upload to Screencast.com or Youtube.com, share export to iTunes, produce it into an MPEG-4, QuickTime Movie, AVI, DV Stream, 3G, and audio-only formats AIFF and AU.

Advanced Export

It gives me option to change the settings and export it to all standard formats.

camtasiaformaceditorFamiliar Timeline

Good thing, the timeline still looks and functions the way it is in Camtasia Studio for windows where I can add, rearrange and drag-and-drop videos and images. Thus, less confusion and no adjustment needed on this part (that is if you’re already a Camtasia Studio user).

So what didn’t I like about Camtasia for Mac.. it does not offer all the features that Camtasia Studio for windows offers but is still bound to create a stir among the top video recording mac software already available in the market.

Before I forget the price is another plus Camtasia for Mac is  currently offered at a very low introductory price of $97.00 . Apparently its a limited offer so be warned.
