Information
Introduction
Iris is a powerful screen recording software capable of recording directly to H.264 format and leveraging onboard GPU acceleration for improved performance when available. It supports recording that includes camera video and up to two audio sources like microphone and computer audio, the latter requiring additional components. Iris software offers a free trial version, but the video recorded in the trial version will contain a watermark, and users can remove the watermark from the newly recorded video through an in-app purchase.
In addition, Iris supports recording directly to h.264 or Apple ProRes format, with even the option to record and encode later. It also features excellent color matching, retina-quality video recording on supported Mac devices, and offers start and stop timers, comprehensive hotkey support, and advanced auto-naming and tagging features, making it an ideal choice for users to record screen content.
