Ask HN: Dynamic Screen Recorder for SaaS?

1 pointsby Ladyadyalmost 3 years ago
Does anyone know of any screen recorder &#x2F; video production tool that allows for easy change or &quot;swapout&quot; of the screen part at a later date?<p>The use case is for help videos for our SaaS product, which can be quickly updated when we introduce a new feature or module. Specifically the visuals, and not the voiceover or script necessarily.<p>I&#x27;m not sure if such a thing exists, but our product changes so often that recording and re-recording help videos takes a lot of time and effort.<p>If it exists, I&#x27;m picturing screenrecording our product in a &quot;frame&quot;, with intro, outro and other artifacts (subtitles, for example or a presenter&#x27;s avatar) sat on top, such that the &quot;frame&quot; can be swapped out with another recording really easily. I know that After Effects can do this kind of thing, but that feels a bit heavyweight still, and you are basically redoing the video.<p>I&#x27;m aware of the counter-argument that some users would prefer a live&#x2F;interactive demo over videos.
