AMCAP is a multi-purpose still and video capture application which comes with many advanced previews and recording features that include AVI, WMV and MP4 formats, DV and MPEG-2 recording, real-time video compression, crosshair, digital zoom, full-screen preview, text enhancer, and many others. The software was designed by Noel Danjou and provides users with many advanced video settings and recording options. The user can use the program to change the frame rate, compression, and output size. Also, the screen recorder lets the user capture audio, and can even connect to third-party cameras. The software also comes with a trial version but has very limited video settings and watermarks on images. Since it still offers image capture and video capture features, the user could use the demo version before moving on to the full version of the software.

As such, the user can easily open the files on different versions of Windows OS, which come with including Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10.

  • Straight-Forward Program: The software was designed with a focus on ease-of-use for developers. While the interface seems cluttered in the first look, the user often will get used to the navigation within just a couple of times. All the icons have been properly labelled, and remind the user of the traditional Windows Explorer-style user interface.

  • Integrated Menu: The software comes with an integrated menu bar that lists all the features, while the recording can be seen in a larger reserved area. The software automatically identifies the webcam or camera device, and thus, starts transmitting the images instantaneously. The user can choose to connect a webcam, USB camera, camcorder, and other such devices.

  • Advanced Features: The software comes with a wide range of features, but unlike Snagit and LightShot, it doesn’t have advanced functionalities. The software doesn’t focus on video playback functions and provides you with limited choices. The user has to either need to remember the hotkey options or manually visit different tabs to start and stop the playback. The program also lacks a tutorial, which makes it pretty difficult for beginners to understand all the features and also, it’s usage.
