Gregwired Blogs about Synching Audio and Video in Cam Studio, Especially for YouTube

My friend Greg has recently taken an interest in creating YouTube content and has put together an arsenal of free, quality tools for that purpose. Among these is CamStudio (which can be used to record anything that appears on your screen), as well as Any Video Converter that allows you to easily configure a variety of different options, providing conversion both to and from a range of popular video formats (including, but not limited to, avi, asf, mov, rm, rmvb, flv, mkv, mpg, 3gp, m4v, and vob).

However, the default settings on CamStudio are not optimized for online content and it is frequently the case that audio and visual are not synced properly. That of course is not unique to CamStudio; out-of-sync videos can be especially noticeable in YouTube where the phenomenon has achieved no little notoriety.

In any case, quality information on optimal CamStudio settings (and perhaps most especially on curing sync problems) is all but non-existent on the Internet, so Greg has both blogged about the issue as well as created a YouTube video taking you step by step through the optimized settings, with a special eye toward creating content to publish on YouTube.
