Ripcorder Screen is an application that records your Mac screen activity. This way, you can create tutorials, demo movies, or save as a standalone video file whatever plays on your computer screen.
The program installs as a small icon on the menu bar, so that you can launch the app with ease whenever the situation requires it. Clicking on the tool's icon opens a small window that you can place anywhere on your computer screen. Unfortunately, you can neither enlarge this window nor make it transparent. However, the utility lets you make a series of settings so that the results meet your needs. Therefore, you can set specific video resolution and quality values, as well as determine the screen area to capture. In addition, you can select the audio input device, highlight the mouse clicks, and schedule the recording to stop automatically at given time intervals. The videos you record are saved within the app and can be played back directly from the program. Yet, you can export them as MOV files to a computer location you determine.
To sum up, Ripcorder Screen is designed for home users looking for a simple solution to record screen activity. Using the tool is a hassle-free task, so that anyone can manage it with ease.
