Shoot Your Screen Description
Shoot Your Screen is a software application specialized in recording videos of your computer screen and audio streams via an external or internal microphone.
Simplistic looks
The GUI looks plain and easy to work with, including all the configuration settings in a single panel.
There’s no support for a help manual, only some tips about how to enable the Stereo Mix on your computer and short descriptions about the program’s capabilities.
The dedicated parameters are highly intuitive, so you are not going to spend a lot time tweaking the entire process.
Video and audio recordings
Shoot Your Screen offers a video preview of your screen directly in the main window. The main window cannot be resized so you are stuck with the default size which looks a bit too smaller.
There are only two buttons implemented in the GUI for helping you record the video streams and sound, or record only the sound (you may connect your own microphone). You can export the recordings to FLV, MPG or WMV file format. In addition, you are allowed to pause the recording with a single click.
Where it falls short
On the downside, you cannot record a user-defined area of the desktop, take screenshots, make use of hotkeys for fast actions, edit the recordings using a pen, highlighter, brush, eraser and lines, schedule the recording process, enable motion detection mode for capturing video streams only when movement is detected, automatically delete old recordings after a certain number of days, keep logs, and pick a default saving directory.
Bottom line
To sum things up, Shoot Your Screen offers only a simplistic approach for helping you record video and audio streams, and is suitable especially for less experienced users.
