Publisher's description
(From NCH Software ):Debut is a simple, easy to use video recorder that lets you capture video files directly on your PC using a webcam (video camera), or capture device (from video). Debut can also capture and record almost anything that can be played or displayed on the computer screen as well as recording audio. The program saves the video on your hard drive as avi, wmv or many other file types. You can also capture a snapshot (video still) from a recording and save it to jpg. Version 1.42 is a bug fixing release.

Version: Debut Video Recording Software 1.42
Pros: Easy to install, easy to use, and great results. I don't know why it didn't come packaged with my webcam.
Cons: Bare bones, basic free app. No bells and whistles. Just does the job, but does it well.
Summary: Very intuitive. Has six icons and a help button. Capture Screen, Capture device, take a snapshot, Tool box, and a list of recordings. I wasn't looking for an app that would record my desktop, but Wow!

"The best in freeware Video recorder"
Pros: FREE!!!! and also good video quality, many output formats, screen or video device capture options. Good program. Easy to use as well.. Stable-Everything you wish for in a screen captture software(i have tried other software but was not satisfied)
Cons: Not suitable for fast motion screen recording, Sound quality is a bit of a let down (you can use your windows sound recorder instead)
Summary: Excellent for non-fast motion screen capture andnon-high quality sound. This is the best recomended software this side of freeware

Version: Debut Video Recording Software 1.42
Pros: Spyware-free, relatively small in file size, slick design, runs smooth, supports many file types, SO simple to use, output file retains decent quality, sound is no problem with a little tinkering, just awesome!!
Cons: Not very fond of the direct install thru the publisher's website; it deposits some links to its website on your start menu (which you can quickly delete). Annoying (but safe though).
Summary: My con is mere piffle; this software is just an amazing FREE tool and I recommend it HIGHLY!!
