I suppose that we could vote for this change, but given that requests for this feature are scattered across multiple threads over the last 6 years and that request roundups only take place every months, and that new versions come along every oooh, say, 4 years, I'm not at all sure that it would be making the greatest of differences. It's essentially just covering for yet another example of how Techsmith has let Camtasia slide way behind pretty much any other editor on the market. "It works and gets the job done" in the same way that a Heath Robinson invention does. mp4), and that you can't interactively edit, and that you can't see the separate tracks. Try doing that for a 20 to 40 minute video with Camtasia's "blistering" rendering speed, then take into account that the motion of the play is only in one direction and at one speed (unless you constantly juggle the clip speed of the. And the last couple of updates seemed to be focused more on fancy title sequences than improved editing. (iMovie stinks for anything more complex than assembling vacation clips into something for your family, or the equivalent.) But it lacks all sorts of things that are useful/wanted. This vow is the only reason that I have not abandoned Camtasia.Ĭamtasia is that bad. After the Sony music root kit fiasco, I vowed never to spend another penny on anything Sony. Let me try explaining it this way: to my knowledge, I have two choices for any serious video work on the Macintosh. Trying to make sure that everything is sped up and stay synchronized is a nightmare not even worth considering. They may be on multiple timeline tracks, there may be gaps/spaces on the difference timeline tracks, different clips may not even start at the same point, etc. I am not working with clips that are just one segment on one timeline track. Now it's time for a new decision.Īttaching a clip speed adjustment to sections is not acceptable. Wrong app? At the time, right app, right decision. Can't get a 10.11 or 10.10, not really sure what to do next. I just found out a 95% work-around that unties me from needing that (great), but now 10.12 turns out to have a serious problem for machines that are up more than about a week at a time without rebooting (you know, servers.). What's kept me on 10.9.5? Jack Router for audio. Will I continue to use Camtasia? I don't know.ĭo I expect to spend any more money on a newer version of Camtasia? Probably not. Heck, as soon as I go to 10.10 or higher there's a bunch of new video editors available - even the newer Camtasia.
#CAMTASIA SPEED UP PLAYBACK UPGRADE#
If I upgrade my OS, I get a brand-new iMovie, with new features, that might be better. It was better than iMovie, cheaper than Vegas, and I didn't need all the stuff in Vegas.
point being, I have never paid a dime to anything "sony" since then, and I wasn't going to start with a $500 editor then.Ĭamtasia fit the bill.
At the time I started using Camtasia, my choice was iMovie - which at the time was little more than a glorified clip assembler with minor editing features, Sony Vegas - which was a $500 product, sold by the people that dumped crap on your (microsoft) computer and got the anti-virus companies to ignore it because "Sony" (never mind that it broke some CD-rom drives, and was horribly anti-consumer), etc.
