The CAMREC format is a single container for various multimedia objects including video clips, still images, document screen shots and special effect containers.

The Camtasia program allows import of various types of multimedia video and audio files including MP4, MP3, WMV, WMA, AVI, WAV and other formats into the Camtasia proprietary CAMREC format, which is readable by Camtasia. In addition, Camtasia allows automatic captions ( speech-to-text), voice overlay for the presenter or editor, as well as the ability to add sound effects in various formats. The image in the infobox to the right is a screen capture of the timeline interface. Post-production Īfter capturing a presentation in the Camtasia Recorder, the Camtasia component can be used to modify audio and video displayed as tracks by using the timeline control and object library interface with an integrated preview window. Overlays of various types may be added, including user-defined settings, such as when and how to display the cursor and pan-and-zoom effects such as the Ken Burns effect. In Camtasia Video Editor, multimedia objects of various formats can be imported into the clip library and arrange them in time order and stacked tracks using the timeline form of user controls. Users may also download an add-in for Microsoft Power Point that will allow them to initiate recording of a presentation from within Power Point itself. Camtasia also supports dubbing in other audio tracks or voiceover during post-capture editing. Camtasia Recorder allows audio recording while screen-capturing is in progress, so the presenter can capture live narration during a demonstration or presentation. The CAMREC file can be saved to disk or directly imported into the Camtasia component for editing. In Camtasia Recorder, users can start and stop recording with a hotkey combination at any time, at which point the recording can be halted and Camtasia Recorder can render the input that has been captured into a CAMREC format.
