New in Screen Mimic 2.4 (Jul 23, 2008)
- Significant performance and memory use improvements during recording, especially on multicore/multiprocessor machines
- Audio/video/mouse will now all remain in synch regardless of how busy your computer may be during the recording. Note: the format of .smb archive files had to change to make this fix, so .smb files are not compatible between 2.3 and 2.4.
