    Thought you meant Screenflow! :P That’s no doubt the best screen casting app.

    But, hey, I won’t pass this up. Thanks.

    Why would someone use this over Quicktime?

    (not joking, I seriously don’t see the benefit)

    yeah, what does it do that quicktime player doesn’t?

    oh, the record button is larger… i see :D

    You can crop the screen.

    Nice alternative to SnapzProX allowing you to record specific sections of your screen.  Thanks.

    How can you record audio?  I would like to do this to record a gotomeeting (or other similar broadcast), but I cannot figure that out.   I tried QuickTime too and QT recorded it fine, but I couldn’t figure out how to record the audio there either (note: not my audio, but the presenters).

    I think it’s free only in USA, I have a New Zealand iTunes account and it does not come up as free app.

  9. srminton says:

    with Quicktime you record the whole screen, not a selected area

  10. niloque says:

    in Snow Leopard – yes. but not in Lion. QuickTime in OS X 10.7 allows you to select part of the screen you would like to record.

    I loaded screeny on my mac with SNL but when program is open a light doesn’t show up indicating the program is open—why?

  12. Ian McPhee says:

    boo! not free in australia! thanks for the tease cult of mac!

  13. Captain Fargon says:

    *sigh*, no UK either…

  14. Brad Hicks says:

    serious question.  I’ve been trying to download it multiple times and it keeps giving me an error message. “The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed.” Any ideas?

  16. Kunal D. says:

    Just checked again and now it’s free on the NZ Mac App store.
