    "Not worth the money!"

    February 22, 2012  |   By teachermac

    Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2

    Pros

    Anyone can do a screen capture however Capture Freestyle Region & Rectangle work well.

    Cons

    Capture Scrolling Window (Freestyle & Website) Don't work!

    Capture Scrolling Window (Website) did work in Snap 4 what happened?

    Using the latest browser versions of Chrome, Firefox & Pale Moon.

    Capture a video is worthless. Help for any issue doesn't exist.

    Children without a clue wrote the help files and did not have supervision.

    Summary

    They are most interested in getting you to buy all their other programs which I wouldn't advise considering.

    "Problematic software."

    January 28, 2012  |   By dickgoodbody

    Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2

    Pros

    Capture's still screenshots no probs, but why bother, when you can do this same function by using the print screen tab and saving to paint... which is free.

    Cons

    Video capture wont work, tried initially the default settings then every other codec setting, but just constant black void screens... totally frustrating... also the tool bars, left & right were sporadic in their appearance, when you finished recording your video clip(attempting to) you can either hit pause/break or click on the top tool bar - exit/stop edit and this action should automatically bring up all the editing tool bars, however only sometimes they would appear, either both left/right wouldn't appear or the right toolbar would appear and the left one was hidden somewhere... very glitchy software.

    Summary

    I purchased this software so i could make personal music compilations by recording my favourite artists from obscure rare dvd's... however Ashampoo Snap 4 wont record anything from my pc dvd player or youtube files, thought maybe my copy was faulty, so uninstalled it then reinstalled it... but to no avail... looked at help/faq's however just says if you have difficulty capturing video then try another codec... tried all, and still no joy??? ...anyone got any tips, as would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

    "Best Screen Capture I've used"

    January 25, 2012  |   By LBPToo

    Version: Ashampoo Snap 5 5.1.2

    Pros

    Handy, quick and many features.

    Cons

    I too was unhappy with the frequency that I accidentally brought down the tool bar by having my mouse near the top of my screen, until I discovered the setting to put it on the right side of the screen(bottom or right too)...no more issues.

    No cons for me.

    Summary

    The best value in a very good screen capture program on the market.
