What's the good software to capture anything that is going on at my screen to a video file that I can later on upload to let's say YouTube? I'm using Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).

QuickTimeX comes with OS X and can do this for you. Some other good 3rd party tools: |

Scratch that! Snapz Pro X is expensive and slow and rather outdated at this point. I've started using Screeny and love it. Integrates with CloudApp for uploading if you like, has a slick easy to use UI, and most importantly doesn't cripple my machine when recording a screen cast1. 1: This could also be the 12GB of ram and quad-core processor, but I like to think it's just a better written app. |

Open QuickTime / File / New screen recorder. See this video |

As others have said, Quicktime X can record both sound and video. Another free option is Copernicus. I used that successfully under Leopard. I've not tried it with 10.6 but see no reason why it wouldn't work. |

Another for consideration is iShowU. It's not as heavily marketed, but it's updated fairly frequently and it's got a much more Mac-like interface than Snapz. It's really powerful without being difficult to use, too. |
