Audio or video sharing with friends and strangers is easier than ever thanks to the Internet and the wide range of social websites. Recording video and / or audio, but can still be a pain.
One solution to this problem is SMRecorder, a free recording versatile program for Windows. SMRecorder can record audio, video (from a webcam) or the desktop, and offers a number of configuration options for each election. Let's take a look at why this slight burning software kicks butt.

SMRecorder opens a small window with some buttons on it that are not labeled by the text.To start recording first you must click on the button to the left too, which seems the new icon file in Microsoft Word.
This opens the recording window New Task, where the flesh of their options appear. There are three recording modes available with SMRecorder, and are listed in the type capture drop-down menu at the top of the window.
Desktop Video - Record the activity being performed on the Windows desktop.Video camera - Records of any webcam connected.Desktop / sound from the microphone - a microphone records.The options that are available in the rest of the recording task in New Window capture depend on the type you choose, so let's take a look at each option in turn.
Desktop Video Recording
Selection of desktop video recording lets you record what is happening on your desktop. It is the perfect way to make video tutorials for that on YouTube, but could also be used to record a video game or want to make a comment. There is only one limitation that will put a barrier of using this program - the option of not recording desktop video desktop audio, but rather audio from your microphone.
The main options for change can be found on the General tab. Audio has to be adjusted to the appropriate source, of course, and in case of default to the audio recording device normally used with windows capture size. It is also important, as it determines how much of your desktop will be recorded. You can record the entire desktop, or only a small section.The size of the capture area will impact on performance, so keep that in mind if your computer seems unbearably slow during recording. Finally, the Time tab lets you choose the maximum length of the recording in minutes.
The video and audio chips also have a number of options. The default settings are fine, but video will result in a bit hectic. You can reduce this by increasing the rate of image capture, and can also improve the overall quality of raising the quality of compression. Something similar can be said of the options in the Audio tab. They're fine by default, but can be improved if desired. However, remember that the size of desktop video file grow larger.
When ready to record, simply press the OK button. SMRecorder window will disappear, but they can be returned by pressing CTRL-P. This will pause the video. You can then resume recording or, if you think you have done to stop and save the recording.
Recording video and audio recording
The video recording options on the camera are simple. The main options to worry about are the video input and audio input, as they have to be properly configured to record video.If you have a default webcam and microphone must be selected by the program automatically, so you probably will not have to configure anything at all.
You can also play with the length to limit the duration of the video. Audio Settings tab has only one option available, and that is the volume setting.
Audio recording is also simple. You must select the input device, and can set a limit on length. The Audio Setup tab also lets you adjust the sampling frequency and speed of MP3 encoding. The choice of a superior type of encryption will improve audio quality, but will increase the file size. The default of 128 bit / s is fine for recording a podcast, especially if you do not have a big microphone.
Conclusion
SMRecorder is a great piece of free burning software. It is very light, so you should have no problem running on computers with limited processing capability and its ability to record desktop video is excellent. I see myself using this to record video tutorials in the future - but what would you do with it? Let us know in the comments.
