You may have come across screen recording applications before -- you know, the apps that let you record everything that happens on your computer desktop. But what did you really do with those recordings? Record silent videos of your mouse gliding across your smooth, app-laden landscape? Did you pick up a microphone and do a voiceover? Well, with ScreenCamera Toolbar, you can record you on-line conversations and chats, record and stream your desktop, all while providing play-by-play audio and video with your webcam!

As a desktop recorder, ScreenCamera Toolbar is second to none, featuring an intuitive toolbar offering single-click access to a variety of functions. You can choose to follow the mouse cursor, or select any active window or region of the desktop. Plus, with the ability to capture video on the webcam AND the activity on the desktop simultaneous, you'll be able to build impressive and helpful video tutorials in a snap!

ScreenCamera Toolbar differs from all other high-def desktop recorders in one critical way: it also serves as a video camera with it's lens focused on your Windows system, allowing you to share your desktop captures on the web with anyone using free video-conferencing and video-streaming apps and websites like Skype, UStream, and LiveStream. Pretty cool!

And for real-time instructional videos, you can pair ScreenCamera Toolbar with your webcam to broadcast yourself and your screen activity!

In addition to all of its great applications as a video tutorial recorder and streamer, ScreenCamera Toolbar also works as a webcam splitter, letting you use your webcam on multiple applications simultaneously!

ScreenCamera Toolbar opens a whole new world of possibilities for your webcam in a lightweight and intuitive app! Once you try it, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it.

Please note: for an additional fee business owners can purchase the ScreenCamera SDK which allows the application to be automated remotely.

Please note folks, Microsoft trusts ScreenCamera enough to list it in their Center of Compatibility!

Gunderic Hagen it is stated that for an additional fee business owners can purchase the Screen Camera SDK which allows the application to be automated remotely. How would this work and what would the additional fee be?
Thanks

Alex Ferri The ScreenCamera SDK allows the automation of ScreenCamera and it has 2 main benefits: The first one is the benefit of having one unique key that registers ScreenCamera on all your office PCs. The second benefit is that one can easily include desktop and webcam capture and recording into a 3rd party application. It is simple to integrate. It works with Microsoft ActiveX technology what makes it highly portable, and for small office environments its cost starts at only $200. Of course this cost is negotiable. If you have interest get in touch with me at publisher{at}pcwinsoft{dot}com and we will discuss further details about it.

Gunderic Hagen I understand the part of how much it costs but not the use or the benefits. Can you provide an example? Where would this camera be bought?
Oct 31 2012 at 6:10am
Alex Ferri Many companies use ScreenCamera to communicate between members so that nobody has to get up their seats to talk over documents and in this sense the SDK brings the benefit of not having to request keys: One key installs and registers ScreenCamera all over the office. So that is one purchase scenario.
The second purchase scenario is when a company wants to add screen caoture to their aplications without having to write code for it: ScreenCamera SDK has an object model that allows the 3rd party application to record and present recorded screen capture and webcam capture to the end user without ever showing ScreenCamera's interface. It gets integrated in such a way that the end user will think it is your application that is making the capture and recording.
A third purchase scenario is a company that purchases ScreenCamera SDK to integrate in their desktop sharing solutions because of ScreenCamera's ability to provide a video camera and thus eliminating the need for the company to write code to capture the screen, this scenario is quite often and it usually involves Adobe Flex and Adove Flash Media Encoder to do the Internet sharing part.
I hope to have made myself clear but if not then let's proceed with the questions.

Jeffrey Titamer Alex, I just ordered the software and didn't get the download page somehow. Checked my email and nothing was in there either. Signed in to PayPal and yes I got charged $9.95 for it so how can I get this fixed. I think I lost the page due to some sticking buttons on my keyboard, not sure but something major went wrong cause I didn't even get a chance to download it. Now that I think about it, I may not have been logged in when I purchased it, does that matter?

I suppose you are going to need the tracking ID, here it is.

Wearsie Jackson How does this differ from the Audials One screen recording (www.audials.com)? I mean, besides the better deal here on BDJ :)
Nov 3 2012 at 5:22am
Alex Ferri The twist about ScreenCamera is the video camera it creates on your system, just like a webcam you buy at the store except ScreenCamera points at your desktop so you can share your desktop on Skype, UStream,TV, Blog.TV, AIM, PalTalk, CamFrog and any app or website that works with webcams.

Before ScreenCamera you can share your face on one program at a time. After ScreenCamera you can share your face and your desktop on multiple applications simultaneously. You may even share both at the same time because ScreenCamera supports PiP (Picture in Picture).

Let me know if you would like any more information.

PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 5:31am
Jeffrey Titamer Thanks Alex,

The letter with all the information in it went to my other PayPal email address. I guess that's what will happen if I don't log in and make a purchase as long as I have two PayPal email addresses.

This software should be perfect for online marketers who wish to show examples of their products and introduce themselves all in the same video or better yet, for doing Webinars. Imagine having several people in your organization who are going to appear in the same webinar all doing so without leaving their office.
Nov 3 2012 at 6:20am
Roderick Nicolson I've just bought your program Alex but am a bit concerned about not receiving a receipt.
I know you have assured some others on here about the registration key being received through the program itself but isn't there a legal obligation to produce some kind of receipt for the purchase, or am I missing something?
Nov 3 2012 at 6:34am
Alex Ferri Response to Roderick Nicolson: Since we are working with PayPal in this promotion the receipt is the one issued by PayPal. On my part I do send an instructional e-mail with the order-id to be saved or printed for future reference as well.

Let me know if I answered you correctly or if I missunderstood your question.
PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 6:44am
Lee H What are the differences between ScreenCamera Toolbar and ScreenCamera.net?

And how do these products compare to what many consider to be the gold standard in video capture, Camtasia?

Thanks for your response.
Nov 3 2012 at 9:15am
Alex Ferri ScreenCamera is a lightweight toolbar with the main purpose of creating narrated tutorials that can be turned into live real-time screencasts due to its video camera output.

ScreenCamera.Net is a video studio in real-time built upon a layer-by-layer object-oriented frame-by-frame technology proprietary of PCWinSoft. It works similarly to Adobe Photoshop when it comes to the layer-by-layer architecture and it works similarly to Adobe Flash when it comes to frame-by-frame animation architecture.

The objects supported by ScreenCamera.Net are: Desktop capture from any available monitor, webcam capture, one or many, movie files of any extension, audio tracks of any extension, IP cameras, TV tuner card video, video device attached to TV tuner video via S-Video, Composite or HDMI, image files of any extension including PNG, text stamps, date-and-time stamps, ellipses, rectangles and triangles. So you can play with all of these objects and drop them on the video output in the order you want with the ability to attach effects to objects such as fade-in fade-out, rotations, color changing, size and position changing. You can look real professional when you enter a video conference room using some basic features of ScreenCamera.Net besides the fact that it is fun to play with it. And ScreenCamera.Net has an embedded video player, image viewer, image browser, video browser and image printer. You can check some tutorials here: http://www.screencamera.n...tutorials/

The main difference between the ScreenCamera family and Camtasia is that the ScreenCamera family does not have a video editor. Apart from that I believe ScreenCamera.Net has more to offer to the end user then Camtasia does, but Camtasia takes the lead because of its editing options.

I hope this answer satisfies your question.
PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 9:30am
CJCotter I’m trying out your program. I selected a rectangular area to record, but because it didn’t fall within the program’s many pre-defined dimension options, the output video was resized into a more square shape. What I was trying to record included text, which became distorted. Please advise. Thank you.
Nov 3 2012 at 10:31am
Alex Ferri You need to work with proportional ratio so I suggest you either select using one of the predefined rectangle sizes or follow the cursor around using the pre-defined sizes and while following the cursor if you have a mouse wheel then you can use it to zoom in and out.

ScreenCamera.Net always keeps the proportions and if the selected rectangle is not within proportions then it just fills in with a back color, but ScreenCamera does not have that built-in yet but it is on the TODO list for the product.

RikkieVanDeDag Hi Alex;-)
Seems nice tool, I wanna buy it, if test satisfy me regarding audio sync, who is always an hot issue when capture screen video.
Audio "time shift" ability to adjust audio sync problems is not present, so I wanna test before buy, you never know, perhaps this tool does not need any audio time shift ability's ?!
BUT I'm not able to try this tool.
I always get an error when I try to record my desktop???
I tried almost every video capture format (avi, WMV, Micorsoft video,...) even uncompressed but I get always this error message: "error could not start record" ... "the reason might be incompatibility with the codec, try changing the codec to solve the problem"
I found no solution in FAQ of your site.
I use W7 64-bit.
Disable Hardware acceleration? It seems not possible to change any setting. The troubleshoot tab include nothing adjustable. But that seems not an issue, the preview screen is not black, it shows my desktop properly.
Maybe you can help?
Nov 3 2012 at 1:36pm
Alex Ferri The most likely reason I can think about is you are having an issue with the audio device. Do the following test: Remove the audio stream to record, go to Configuration Snap and record, in there umark the 'Include audio' box, click OK, then verify if the program records and let me know about it. If you will we could continue this conversation via e-mail.Mine is support{at}pcwinsoft{dot}com.
PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 1:49pm
DroidLuvr Is ScreenCamera Toolbar just a new name for the previous WinSoft ScreenCamera?

If so, then it should be a free upgrade if I purchased it last time it was here (June, I think...), correct?

Thanks!

Nov 3 2012 at 4:48pm
Alex Ferri Download the latest installer if you have already bought it. The download here at BDJ is the latest version. Download and request a key, There were some major updates since you purchased and you will get it for free.
PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 4:53pm
Roderick Nicolson Thanks Alex. I received the Paypal notification and I found your order ID. I have a folder called pcwinsoft and it went in there. I must have bought or tried something from you before.
Thanks by the way for your excellent response. It makes a huge difference, to all of us I'm sure.
Nov 3 2012 at 5:17pm
Alex Ferri Thanks, it is my pleasure to be able to help.

Best,

PCWinSoft Systems Informatica Ltda - Nov 3 2012 at 5:21pm
CJCotter Is there a maximum limit on the size of the audio file ScreenCamera Toolbar can create? I want to record a two hour seminar. Please advise. Thank you.
Nov 3 2012 at 8:26pm
Alex Ferri For that specific purpose you should record in WMV format and choose or edit an encoder to have the audio around 32 Kbps and the video around 500 Kbps. With these settings you should get a high quality not too large file at the end of the recording.
