find many interesting features , but these are what I would highlight as most important:

  • can record both image and sound (even just the sound)

    • Videos

  • VP8/WebM format and MKV
  • Applet that lets you start, pause and stop recording

    • Countdown

  • screen
  • resulting videos can be shared directly with YouTube and VideoBin.
  • specific sections can record screen (not the entire desktop)
  • can disable the mouse
  • You can customize the frame rate per second that we applied in the recording (from 1 to 60)
