Thanks Martin for this article, awesome to see that you found this program! I was surprised by myself that it doesn’t come with any serious catches or adware for private users. The website nor the program explain the difference between FMR and regular video/stream recording. If there is one thing to criticize it is the lack of documentation. It may take a while to grow accustomed to the program which can be largely attributed to the immense set of options and settings it ships with. Presentations can be saved as five different video formats (avi, mp4, wmv, webm or mkv) or as png or jpg images.ĪctivePresenter is an ideal program for the creation of video tutorials, demonstrations or presentations. There you also find annotation and auto-annotation preferences to handle those, and customization options for interactions such as mouse clicks, buttons or questions. There you find so many settings that it can become overwhelming quickly.įor instance, the hotkeys tab alone lists nearly every button or function of the program (definitely more than one hundred) so that you can assign hotkeys to them.

The selection of tools includes annotation options to add text in different forms and shapes to the video, add interactive events such as mouse clicks or drag and drop events to it manually, or to save specific stills as image slides.īefore you start your first recording you may want to open the preferences at least once.

The editor allows you to play the video and to connect multiple videos with each other.
