Thank you! Do Camtasia, OBS, etc allow simple video workflows like linear editing and splicing audio / video tracks? Or would I need to use these screen capture software along with something else for that functionality?
- rschachte 4y agoYes they allow for both of these things. “Clip at playhead” will allow you to cut the track and you can right click the track to separate video and audio instantly. Great tool
- benbristow 4y agoOBS doesn't really do editing, it's designed for live streaming/events (hence Open Broadcaster Software (OBS)) but also handles 'VOD' (video on-demand) recording. You can do cuts on the fly as you record by configuring different scenes and using hotkeys but there's no timeline feature or post-editing features. Camtasia is basically a NLE (Non-linear (video) editor) which has a screen recorder/A/V external capture function bundled though and can be used for splicing audio/video, adding basic effects/transitions and titles etc. I suggested OBS if using OpenShot (which is also a NLE) as it's good for capturing screen/external video (capture card/webcam etc.)/audio content which then can be post-edited using OpenShot.
