The program's green-tinted capture region is quite unique and visually appealing and allows you to make selections with ease. Just like other screen capture tools you've already used, you can instantly capture a screen image by holding down the mouse while dragging the active area along your chosen capture region. It also allows you to capture a complete scrolling web page from Internet Explorer (for Windows XP/Vista/7/8 users). The program works with hotkey combinations that capture a screen, a window, or a region of your choice. Screencasting tools can also be helpful to students to explain in video format any problems they're having and need your assistance in solving.Greenshot is a free, lightweight screen capture tool which provides various features and services present on its commercial counterparts. Like any screencast recording tool, TechSmith Capture can provide you with a convenient way to create short instructional videos for your students. I was, however, successful in getting TechSmith Capture to run on my Mac. Unfortunately, the installation kept timing out when I was prompted to sign into my TechSmith/ account. I tried to install TechSmith Capture on my Windows computer this morning.

Finished videos are rendered as MP4 files that you can use in all of the typical places that you would share a video including YouTube. An update over Jing is found in the fact that you can now record with your webcam while recording your screencast video. Like its predecessor TechSmith Capture can be used to create screencast videos and capture screen images. You can download TechSmith Capture for free to use on Windows and Mac computers. The end of Jing has now arrived and TechSmith is replacing it with a free product called TechSmith Capture. Last spring Techsmith announced that they were winding down the Jing project because, in part, it used Flash as the file output. Since then other and better tools have come along including tools like Snagit made by TechSmith. It was amazing to be able to quickly record a short video to explain things to colleagues and students. TechSmith's Jing was the first tool that I used to make screencast videos more than a decade ago.
