Condition: CD-rom Bundle consists of Camtasia v2.1.1, DubIt Version 2.0.5, & SnagIt 5.1.0. This came out in the year 2001 and the manual states it was made for Win98, 2000, NT4.0, WinME and OSR2. It will probably run on XP too since it has the same kernel as 2000, but I cannot guarantee that since I have not tried it. I have never used it so it is brand new, but the retail box is not included. The CD-rom, case and manual are mint. Will ship First Class within 1-2 business days. Guaranteed to be as described or return within 3 business days for refund of item price.

Several problems during use. May 26, 2004

Two major concerns about this software:
1. Type of capture. Camtasia captures AVI files of your screen. This may be great if you require full motion capture, but consider the situations where you don't, like creating software demos. Camtasia will capture any erratic mouse movement, and the exact speed and accuracy with which you type. You can, of course, do some editing to try to compensate for these factors, but that's a lot of extra work. I have also discovered that if I excise a portion of captured video, I can't get a callout to span the edit, severely limiting what I can do in a demo.
2. Program performance. In the course of using Camtasia on just two projects, I ran into these problems:
a. It locked up while I was editing video, and I had to start over.
b. It "forgot" several edits that I had made during the course of a session and I had to re-do them.
c. It lost track of how long the source video was, and so I could not trim the end of it until I closed the program and restarted.
d. It ignored one of my "Save Project" commands, forcing me to re-do a half-hour's worth of work when I closed the session and came back to it.
e. There was the inability to place a callout noted above.
I also found the callouts available in Camtasia very clumsy looking and cumbersome to set up.
My system consists of a P4 1.8 GHz computer with 512 MB of RAM, Windows XP Pro, and Intel 82845 graphics.
