y'know those tutorials that show the mouse moving and such?

i used to think it was a video camera pointed at the monitor, but, maybe it's a software utility?

can anyone recommend one? can it record audio at the same time it's screen capturing?

thanks! cheers

I've used Camptasia which has a powerpoint add on so you can work in powerpoint and save it for camptasia as a movie edditor so you can add all the moving edditting items. It has a screen caprture program I use independently to capture movies that I can't download any other way. it does work in the background I was using it to capture google earth as it flies to a to alocation I'm trying to use it to make an animated bat and your seein gfrom his eyes as he goes to bat caves around the country and then a presentation on location type formation species of bats in the cave etc. captasia does have a light pointer to point at objects dont' know about writing though probably away to do it.

I'm using CamStudio 2.6 with the CamStudio codec 1.5 for non-game apps. It saves as an AVI that I then run through DivX AVI so I can load the captured movies into my video editors. I set my application window size to 1280 x 720 so they are HD on YouTube. If you are doing a tut for a game, then FRAPS is the program to get.
