• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Is there any version of Hypercam or any software identical to it available for the Mac?

One should always briefly explain what (the PC program) actually does. Most of us don't use PCs.

Hypercam itself is not made for Macs, but there are at least six similar programs out there, probably more advanced actually.

If you are running Snow Leopard (10.6.x), you already have one on board: QuickTime X can make full screen recordings which you can then edit in iMovie or some other program, and of course from there you can upload directly to YouTube (or indirectly to just about anywhere).

If all you need is to capture your full screen, QuickTime X is all you need.

For more elaborate screencasts, I like Screenflow from Telestream or Camtasia from TechSmith. There's also Snapz Pro X, iShowU (and iShowUHD), Sequence and others.

At ACDSee we use Camtasia for screencasts. Here's an example.
