I used to prefer the latter because of the smaller files size e.g. recording stills rather than continuous motion and outputting as flash but with devices like iOS devices and popularity and functionality of YouTube video seems to be the best format anyway and Camtasia Studio is far more like a video editing tool than other tools. There are loads of resources and tutorials on the camtasia site and elsewhere so I think all of your listed profiles apply. It's got good options for setting up templates with intro's and outro's etc so that all teaching staff have to do is record their bit. But it's definitely not as easy to use as camstudio or jing or screenr etc. I'd say there's a progression route from those solutions to Camtasia Studio for those who really want to get more professional results via post production and editing etc.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='color:#1F497D'>I suspect you know all that. <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='color:#1F497D'>Ron<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces@lists.nottingham.ac.uk] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Julian Tenney<br><b>Sent:</b> 18 October 2010 16:11<br><b>To:</b> Xerte discussion list<br><b>Subject:</b> [Xerte] Camtasia Studio<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Hiya,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:36.0pt'>Does anyone here have experience using Camtasia Studio?
