This short demo video showcases the free video capture utility, Freeseer. Freeseer is designed for screen casting and capturing presentations. It captures from a variety of sources including USB devices like webcams/vga capture devices, firewire devices such as camcorders, and local desktop.
Freeseer is open source software that lets you record presentations such as full motion demos, or slide presentations. What makes it unique is that it is capable of capturing video from a vga capture device, webcam, or camera using firewire. The following video shows you how to set up for vga capture.
