QuickTime has a neat little trick that some may not know about, it can record your screen.

Use it to record a how-to video how to navigate System Preferences, or how to use Final Cut Pro, or record a MacDevOps:YVR talk.

The first two MacDevOps:YVR conferences needed to be converted to a suitable format for YouTube and using QuickTime screen recording + Soundflower is the way I chose to do it.

Note: Soundflower is needed to redirect the audio to QuickTime. Screenrecording with QuickTime does not capture the audio without Soundflower.

MacDevOps Screen recording steps

1. Install Soundflower (Soundflower-2.0b2.dmg)

2. Set audio output to SoundFlower 2ch
3. Set QT screen recording to Soundflower audio 
4. Start screen recording (select screen area)
5. Play website audio / video (Safari / Other )
6. Stop both. Edit and trim QT video as needed
7. Upload to YouTube
8. Tag video (mdoyvr, yvr, MacDevOps, MacAdmin, MacIT), put in proper playlist
9. Publish

Addendum:

I own Rogue Amoeba’s excellent Audio Hijack application and have used this app for audio capture (podcast interviews, etc), but I couldn’t get it to work in this case. It might have also required their Rogue Amoeba’s Loopback app which I did not own. Since I’ve used Soundflower previously I used it here in this case.
