Screenflow reviews1/7/2023 Once you’ve done this, you can’t go back! Destructive Project Archive….Pretty scary sounding….Īgain, this one is not a biggie for me, but the ScreenFlow team has improved on the built-in color effects library, as well as adding a quick and easy chroma key effect, if you have talent in front of a green/blue screen. If you’re going to work with this feature I would highly suggest making sure that your project is done, approved and won’t need any updates with footage that’s about to be blown away. DPA is the same as a project consolidation, where ScreenFlow will take the media used in your timeline, copy it to a new, much shorter file thereby making your project archives exceptionally smaller. This is great and everything, but if you recorded for three hours, and only used a 10 second clip of that three hour record, you’re still saving that three hour record with your project, which will give you an absolutely MASSIVE project save. “Delete All Unused Media” simply takes all the elements in your project that weren’t used, and removes them from the project. First, let me point out that this is not the same as “Delete All Unused Media”. Now, this sounds like a bad thing, and probably could have used a better thought out name, but the Destructive Project Archive (DPA) feature is AWESOME. Having the record sizes smaller is an awesome update, but not as good as the next feature…… Destructive Project Archive In the past, if you recorded for two hours, that massive video file was contained in the single saved package. You might think that this isn’t that big a deal, but what’s important to keep in mind about how ScreenFlow works is that everything is contained in the ScreenFlow file when you have it. With ScreenFlow’s new recording system, not only are the file sizes much smaller (finally), but your timeline will scroll faster, export quicker and generate thumbnails faster. You can also get in and quickly update font type, colors and other parameters to change up the lower thirds from project to project. This one is not a biggie for me, but still excellent for people new to ScreenFlow and Screen recording apps in general Having access to a Title Library will give you a head start if you need to create name keys for the people in your screen records. Yep, that’s a lot, and ScreenFlow covers them all! Facetime, microphones, computer audio, video, iPad or iPhone screens. ScreenFlow captures anything you have plugged into your computer. Recording Multiple A/V Sources and Improved Camera Recording System Alright, let’s get down to the nitty gritty. Captures are still compressed, but you’d never know that, when you look at the final product on YouTube, or wherever you’re sending it. There are screen capture apps out there capturing uncompressed AVI’s, but then I find it an exceptional pain in the butt to edit with the recordings. Quality, without a sacrifice to performance. It easily has the best quality of any of the screen recording applications that I have used to date. Very nice! WHAT’S NEWīefore I jump in and talk about what’s new, for me, it’s important that I discuss the reason that I rave about ScreenFlow. At least Telestream is offering a simple upgrade path from all the way back at version 4, all the way up to 10. The upgrade path is actually pretty clever, and runs a little like the breakdown below:īasically, start at $49, to upgrade from version 9 to 10, and add an additional $10 to that cost for each version away from 10, that you need to move from. ScreenFlow 10, the full version, will run you $149 US. COSTįirst, let’s get this out of the way. Let’s see if it has what it needs to get your upgrade (or full release) dollars!īefore we get rolling, there’s something important that I need to mention, and that is that ScreenFlow 10 is now a Catalina and Big Sur product only, supported on both Intel and M1 processors, so keep that in mind before you decide to purchase or upgrade. One with additional stock footage, and one with the stock footage elements and yearly support, but for this review, we’re only looking at the “standalone” version of ScreenFlow. Now, Telestream does offer two additional versions of ScreenFlow. I made the switch recently to PC, but still use my Mac from time to time, and if I need to do any screen capture, it’s ScreenFlow all the way! Telestream has just released it’s newest version, version 10. Whether I’m on Mac or Windows, it’s really at the core of most of my freelance work as a trainer and instructor.
