Blueberry Releases BB FlashBack SDK
Blueberry Software has released the latest version of its screen recording software development kit, BB FlashBack SDK.
BB FlashBack SDK 2.0 offers developers and software publishers an easy way to incorporate screen recording, movie playback and editing features into their applications, using plug-in ActiveX controls.
SDK 2.0 is based on the high-performance recording engine used in Blueberry's award-winning BB FlashBack screen recorder - a product which has been acknowledged for its performance level, its intuitive interface, and its sheer ease of use.
Three versions of SDK 2.0 are available: Basic, which allows the recording and playback of BB FlashBack movies; Professional, which adds movie editing and sound support; and Advanced, which has all the features of the BB FlashBack product. These include extensive editing functions that allow the user to add text effects, edit mouse movements, change the movie speed and add sound. The screen recordings can be exported to multimedia formats such as Flash, AVI, WMV or EXE for use on a CD-ROM.
Managing Director, Martin Green, comments: "BB FlashBack SDK 2.0 is the most powerful screen-recording toolkit on the market, providing in a single package complete support for movie creation, editing and export.
"Representing over 8 man-years development, it makes screen-recording technology cheaper and more accessible than ever before."
SDK 2.0 is compatible with all major development environments, including Delphi, .NET and Visual Studio.
Applications include:
o Usability testing - create custom tools to record user interaction.
o Web conferencing - to allow recording of presentations over the Internet.
o In Call Centres - to help give operators feedback on their use of programs.
o In support systems - integrate recording of user actions to help debug programs.
"Interest in the SDK is running very high," Martin said. "In fact we've already sold a number of licenses for the Beta version, including one to a high-profile global company wanting to record how people use their software.
"These pre-release sales, and the very positive feedback from our clients, make us very confident that SDK 2.0 will be extremely successful in the marketplace."
Peter Chen, Director of Technology at OmNovia, the web conferencing specialist, said: "After evaluating 30+ other recording products we have found the perfect solution in Blueberry's SDK."
Steve Lachs from I-logix, said: "We've been using (Blueberry's) SDK for over a year, and it's nothing short of fantastic."
