In this menu you can choose to record only the screen, the webcam, or both, change the size of the produced video from 480p, 720p, active window (you control the size of the screen), or full screen (1080p), change the microphone settings, and add computer audio if you have the Solo Deluxe or Solo Premier versions. This is the area of the screen that will be recorded. When you select Launch Free Recorder from the homepage a black and white border frames the area. If you opt for the Solo Deluxe ($1.50/mo) or the Solo Premier ($4/mo) versions you'll select Start Recorder from the Screencast-O-Matic account page after you login. Once you are there you'll select Launch Free Recorder. Once you install the free setup software you will need to go to the Screencast-O-Matic Website each time you want to record. This will download a piece of software called Screen Recorder Launcher Setup. Instructors like it because the free version is straightforward and simple to use and the paid versions give you a lot of value for your money. Screencast-O-Matic is a free screen recording and webcam recording software for Mac, PC, or Chromebook that allows you to effortlessly create explainer and instructional videos.
