Hi Marc

Blueberry Software's Flashback Express is a freeware desktop app. I have used their apps for many years, they are very good.
FlashbackExpress

The best one I ever used generated a interactive SWF. It was used on a lot of tutorials at tuts4you.

I'd like to make one with a small memory and cpu footprint that generated VP9..

ffmpeg. That stuff can encode anything to anything and it does it faster than ... anything. About 90% of all video encoding software [even commercial] are just wrappers over it.

For your case you can capture your screen images to a some folder, then use ffmpeg to stitch them into movie [or into animated gif, I've been playing with that recently].
Just one problem -- it has really bad and complicated command-line UI ^^ That UI just says you "hello from the linux world, get stuck forever in pre-MS DOS age". But well that's typical for opensource programs (as well as "documentation" in a form of 300kb txt file, lol), not a big problem if really needed.

Here are prepared builds for windows

// It is also possible to use it's source/lib/dll files with your program, but that's even more painful and I've dropped such attempts quickly

Has worked well for me.

hi,

thanks you all for the interesting info.
need some time now to test them,
will see ...

thanks,
greets,

IIRC vlc can do that too.
CamStudio is also good!

It'd probably take less than 20 lines of PB to generate the frames in a selected folder then pass it to FFMPEG using RunProgram. It'd probably have a smaller memory and cpu footprint than other solutions too.
