We have had a few requests from people asking how to capture on a MAC. To ensure compatibility with the 1280x720 resolution we use to produce HD content you will need to force your monitor to true 16:9 rather than the default modes which are 16:10 (computer monitor) Get hold of DisplayConfigX and for capture we really rate and recommend iShowU You may find that the processing requirements are a bit high on older machines and know that SnapZPro is less resource intensive.
