Free and easy-to-use GIF recording software LICEcap

Small partners often write blog often need to upload renderings run, that is, GIFdynamic map, online or convert some GIF recording software or site needs to pay, there are to choose from in the following manner.

1. First use video recording software (such as QQ own record), and then through some conversion tool (for example GIF Brewery) to convert video files into formats GIF
2. GIF or directly using certain recording tool GifCamis also very good

What I want to introduce today is a very lightweight and powerful free GIF recording tool-LICEcap.

Introduction

LICEcap can capture the desktop area and save it directly as a .gif file, which can be viewed directly or on a web page. Simple operation, powerful function and excellent performance! That's why I always use it.

The author also open sourced it and put it on Github.

In addition to .GIF, LICEcap also supports its own native lossless .LCF file format, which has a higher compression rate, higher quality (more than 256 colors per frame) and more accurate time than .GIF stamp. If you record as .LCF, you can play the .LCF file in REAPER (and/or use it to convert to .gif or other video formats).

I adjusted the frame rate to 30, which is still quite high, at 1.99M in 10 seconds, and the effect is quite good.
