CamStudio

Build status

The fork

This is a personal fork of the camstudio source code found in the mecurial repository on sourceforge.net. I have forked this project because:

  • The installers that are availible on the web are not kosher.
  • No h264/mkv support out of the box.
  • Flash based products are insecure, support must be removed.

Goals

Besides creating a clean installer for camstudio I have found myself a couple of additional goals.

  • Fix memory leaks - done.
  • Remove unmaintainable features:
    • swf support - removed.
    • xnote support - removed.
  • Upgrade/Remove project dependencies:
    • CxImage - removed.
    • zlib - done.
    • minilzo - done.
    • libconfig++ - removed.
    • libpng - removed.
  • Replace static visual studio project files with CMake - done.
  • Add support for mkv - done.
  • Replace libconfig with alternative - done.
  • Improve settings screen - done.
  • Create release - done.
  • Introduce unit test - in progress.
  • Replace UI framework with Qt.

Removed features

  • swf support.
  • xnote support.
  • audio recording support (re-implement audio recording is planned)
