I’ve struggled with blurry text when screencasting with Camtasia on my Macbook Air 11″, but figured out a neat way to get everything super-sharp. The video below will guide you through it. Enjoy!

Rob,
I was excited to watched your video and finally learn the secret!
BUT Your video completely confused me and was not clear at all!
You seemed to be plagued by having various screens come up you did not want and then repeatedly switched back to what you meant to show.
Also I had no idea what those two vertical lines were on the right hand side of the screen! They even seemed to change color throughout your presentation.
I strongly suggest re-recording and being far more careful with what you show. Any needless complexity kills comprehension by a newbie.
PLEASE try again!
Thank you,
Mark
Sorry it was unclear Mark! When I’m back in the studio I’ll try and give it another shot, but several people said that it helped them, and I’ve watched it back through and it does make sense, so maybe try following along step by step and let me know if it makes any more sense that way! Or if you have any questions just ask them here and I’ll try to clarify.

Rob, thanks for taking the time to do the recording for us. The resolution problem also frustrates taking screen shots as well. Do I understand correctly that what we need to do is select Resolution: Scaled. Then set resolution to the recording resolution of 1280×720, and resize each window to that size. Then set the Mac resolution of 1366×768.
Is that it?
Yep, that should do it!
