Softonic review

Complete screen capture tool

Screenshot tools come in all shapes and sizes from the extremely simple point and shoot kind to the all round image and video editing tool in one.

macVCR falls towards the latter end of this spectrum allowing you to record everything you see on the screen and output it directly to QuickTime format. Unlike many other such tools however, macVCR doesn't require any installation and you just simply double click the macVCR Icon to launch it. As soon as it's running, it's recording everything that happens on your screen including mouse movements and webcam activity.

You have a high degree of control over the codecs you want to use, the number of frames per second, the level of video compression, or the resolution and duration of the screencast. You've also got a limited number of annotation tools which allow you to draw objects on the screen or expand a small area of the desktop. If you have two monitors, it will also support use across both screens which is quite unusual for a screenshot tool. In addition, if you're not a big QuickTime fan, it will also permit you to output videos to Windows Media, iPhone, Apple TV, AVI etc.

macVCR does take some time to master as it's packed with so many advanced options and features but if you stick with it, you'll have a very powerful and lightweight screen capture tool.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
