ScreenFlow 5.0—A Home Run Upgrade

By Victor M. Font Jr.
November 16, 2014Leave a Comment

Telestream has hit a home run with the release of ScreenFlow 5.0, the newest version of their award-winning screencasting and video editing software for the Mac. ScreenFlow 5.0 is ideal for creating high-quality software demos, IOS app demos, polished video tutorials, in-depth video training and dynamic presentations. It is the perfect screen recording solution for Educators, Online Training, App Developers, Bloggers and Marketers.

A great product gets better

I've been using the previous version for quite some time, but this release adds features I'm really excited about, such as:

  • iOS Recording
  • Recording Preview
  • Native support for MPEG Transport Stream/AVCHD
  • Set recording frame rate
  • Streamlined new actions
  • Touch Callouts
  • Rolling Edits
  • Plus more….
  • Direct access iPhoto and iTunes Library
  • Improved media handling and organization
  • SRT import
  • Efficient batch export
  • Publish to Wistia
  • App Preview export option
  • Save local copy
 

IOS Recording

One of my favorite new features is IOS Recording. To record an IOS device, it must be tethered to your Mac via a Lightning cable and requires iOS 8 plus Yosemite. The YouTube video below is a capture of Angry Birds Transformers Jenga mode from an iPad Air 2.

Affiliate Disclosure

In the spirit of full disclosure, I am a Telestream affiliate and receive a commission for ScreenFlow 5.0 sales made through my affiliate link. With that out of the way, I have to say that I only endorse products that I believe in and use myself. Please read my full Affiliate Marketing Disclosure for more details.

Regardless of the fact that I am a ScreenFlow 5.0 affiliate, this is a worthy product upgrade and I encourage you to take a serious look at it even if you've used a competing product in the past. You won't be disappointed!
