In their own words
PassFab Screen Recorder
PassFab Screen Recorder records computer screens, webcams and games on Windows and macOS. It supports full-screen and regional capture, while game recording is described as running at a high frame rate. Webcam input can include web IP cameras and other devices; users can remove a character background or add a background color. Picture-in-picture records camera and screen together, with controls for camera size and position. Audio can include computer sound and microphone sound together or either source alone. Listed resolutions range from 360p through 1080p, and the FAQ says 4K output can be selected when the display is 4K. Editing tools include cursor highlighting or magnification, arrows, shapes and lower thirds. The product page says there is no time limit on recordings. PassFab presents the recorder for students, teachers, businesses and gamers. It is a paid product with a free plan and trial listed, but no license prices are provided. The listed license terms are one month, one year and lifetime, each for one Mac.
