AviScreen Classic1.3

AviScreen Classic is a lightweight tool which enables you to record the activity of your screen in an AVI file.The program comes with a simplistic, user-friendly interface in which you can access four tabs - "Capture area", "Shortcut", "Video", "Picture" and "Folder".So, you can get started by selecting the capture area (e.g. full screen, selected object, custom).Below you can check out the left, top, width and height of the currently select area to capture. Optionally, you can include the mouse cursor in the recording, as well as enable AviScreen Classic to follow the cursor mode.Furthermore, you can configure keyboard shortcuts which will allow you to start, pause and stop the movie and to take snapshots. Settings can be restored to their default values at any time.In addition, you can select the video compression method, input the number of frames per second and delay before capture, enable AviScreen Classic to play the video after creating it, choose the picture type (GIF, JPG or BMP), adjust the JPG quality and specify the base output folder.AviScreen Classic takes up a low-to-moderate amount of system resources, includes a well-written help file with snapshots for novices and didn't freeze, crash or display errors during our tests. The image quality of the output files is pretty good.During our tests we have noticed that AviScreen Classic has some compatibility issues with Windows 7. In other words, we weren't able to view the recordings although creating them didn't seem to be a problem for the tool. But this issues doesn't occur on Windows XP. We strongly recommend AviScreen Classic to all users, regardless of their experience level.
