“What’s wrong with my computer/this tool?" When you have problems of trying new applications or system, and have no idea of how to describe what happened on your computer, you may need a tool to mirror your operations, and then send it to a computer guru or technical support for help. It need to show exactly what you have done and how can this happen, so the technical staff can understand you clearly and give you the quick solution within minutes. It’s efficient for you to get the quick response.
Do you really need a camera to record your computer screen? A camera face to your computer is not the best way for these purposes. First, the camera can not record the screen exactly. Second, you can not edit the video by adding some instructions or narrations easily. Third, the video file is too big for web sharing and transmission.
