I use a mac. What is the best free screen recorder for mac that has no downsides (watermark, lag, etc.)? I have Quicktime player pre-installed already. Is this decent to mess with, or is there something better?

I've been looking around for some as well, and I've really only looked at recommendations and downloaded a few free ones, but either I couldn't figure them out, or they didn't work for me.
However, QuickTime recorded my game just fine. Apparently you can record audio from the game as well, but I had a problem in getting that to work. :\ I could record myself, just fine though. I imagine I missed a setting somewhere. Still, QuickTime is actually pretty decent if you can figure it out, I guess? Maybe I'll try to again.
the problem with quicktime is you cannot record both microphone and audio from the game. You can use sound flower to record the game, but then you cannot hear the game, and you have to record yourself separately, and put the 2 audio clips in a recording together. its a pain in the ass.

If you use a PC, I highly reccomend Razer's (free) Gamebooster. It would not only remove unecessary tasks while games are in use but has a built-in sound and video recording tool with toggle on/off controls. The toggle is also configurable.
I personally record on a Mac and use the Quicktime player. It's great for when you just want to record yourself playing, but it has issues. If you want to record both yourself and the game audio, turn the game audio all the way up on your Mac, then move the audio slider all the way to the left on the actual recorder.
This will make it so that the recorder will record your voice using the built in microphone and it will record the in game audio after if comes out the speakers. Works fine. The issue with this is trying to play with someone and record their voice. It can work, but the other person's voice is of lesser quality. All the Minecraft videos on my channel are done this way, so have a look to see what you can do with it. Anything better would probably require paying for. Hope this helped.
i tried voila,works good, free trial is only downside as it only lasts for 30 days and if u don't use it 4 a few days it still takes away the days
no watermark, no lag, perfect sound as though you had recorded mc with ur camera
u cud do that
Unfortunately, "Mac screen recorder," "free," and "great quality with no watermark," don't generally go in the same sentence... I'm also looking for a good screen recorder.

Or so that's what they call me. I honestly like video games, not some petty crafting junk. Mwahah.
I use Camstasia the free version,every time my 30 day trial runs out I download it again using a fake email.
Camstasia is good to use if your recording MineCraft or any kind of game.

Can you tell me how to record both the microphone and the audio from the game?
