YouTube - Ezvid Review II

Hello again everybody,

So if you remember in a previous post I said I was going to start uploading some speed paints and possibly some simple tutorials to you tube. Well, you may have noticed how videos have not made their way up.

I just wanted to take some time to add some of my personal review comments. I spoke before about how I enjoyed Ezvid and how it really was easy to upload your videos straight to you tube. However, I am not as pleased with it as I once was for several reasons.

The first reason is the 45 minute time limit. Which I didn't think was going to be a big deal at first. Until I spent over 45 minutes on a video and the entire screen capture was trashed. In addition, since I plan on doing a lot of speed paints, the program will only speed up videos 600%, which in my opinion is still too slow. There are plenty of videos on you tube 10 minutes and up for speed painting. And after the hours I've spent looking at them myself, very few of those are going to get watched in completion. A speed paint that times at around 5 minutes is perfect to hold the full attention of the audience. Unfortunately, with this program that cannot be accomplished.

Lastly, aside from the horribly music options that you are forced to select (no you cannot just pick none, the closest they have is silent computer), there is no way to export the video you have created. This program will only upload to you tube directly.

I could see this being a good tool for live tutorials possibly, but it is just not what I'm looking for in a speed paint screen capturing program.
