What's New
Version 2.2.4:
Fixes
1020+: Fixed crash in Mac OS X 10.7 when deleting a recording.
1018+: Additional stability improvements.
1014+: Fixed bug causing crash when switching screen resolutions.
1011+: Mac OS X 10.7 Specific: Fixed QuickLook. Fixed sync of audio with frames.
994+: Fixed regression on multi-display configurations.
988+: Fixes to texture manager (fixing crash bugs).
986+: Fixed up a thread leak.
985+: Fixed up a crash that'd sometimes happen with the new resource manager.
Changes
There's a new option to enable quantizing of frames to exact boundaries. This was the previous default behavior and was there primarily for FCP7 compatibility. By default it's off, but can be enabled in General iShowU HD Preferences.
Capture guide auto hides (if it's movable) when using Mac OS X 10.7.
We figured out how to manipulate the space-time continuum and have made the UI significantly more responsive.
Fixed an evil memory leak (symptoms were: 'slows down after about 2.5hrs recording'). The world is now a better place.

Difficult to choose from an array of screen capture apps with equal quality. iShowU HD Pro is no winner, but certainly worth a try. Some UI-issues though; the "draw"- and "point"-mode use a VERY small font for explanation in a HUGE granite-black floating HUD. And the addition of a small mini-HUD for record & pause is good, but you can't position it your way.
The use of Soundflower isn't a iShowU HD exclusive; Screenflick, Screenium and Screenflow are using it as well.
Haven't recorded it for hours, so don't know how well iShowU HD will behave as Drtyrell969 states.
Overall a decent app.
But for anyone just looking to record their screen without any extra's (my kids like to screencapture their Minecraft Worlds) good old QuickTime Player comes to the rescue; just use control-command-N and off you go...
Absolutely HORRIBLE product. You have to install something called SoundFlower to get sound out of applications. Yeah awesome, except it doesn't work. You do a tiny test movie, fine. You go more than 10 minutes, or an hour, or more and nothing. Huge file with empty sound. Save your money.
iShowU HD is simply the best screen recording app you can get, in my opinion. I have used camtasia, the more expensive Screen Flow, Snapz Pro X, jing and a couple others and none of them were as easy to use as iShowU HD. This app is also highly configurable and makes it easy to get really good results. I highly recommend this application to anyone that needs screen recording capability. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed. If you are looking at this vs screenflow try iShowU app as it is still half the price of ScreenFlow and offers many of the same functions and makes it very easy to use.
I didn't try Screenium, but it looks similar. I did try ScreenFlow which also seems to be popular. Personally I didn't like ScreenFlow and its, well, flow. And I really did not like its price and its activation scheme.
AWESOME APP AWESOME SUPPORT!!
The app installed easily, the instructions are very clear and easy to understand, and I had one question of clarification and got a response almost immediately.
I highly recommend both the product and the company.
Amazing app, I've used it for a while and I love it. It just keeps getting better and the dev is very responsive. There are always a few things that could be changed and added (this goes for almost every app), and thankfully some of those will be coming.
We're aware of the problem and are trying to find a fix. I figure we must be doing something that the X3100 doesn't like. We will be posting info on the forum when it's done (and of course, there will be an update to the software).
