Freeseer (/ˈfriːsiːɑːr/) is a discontinued[2] cross-platform screencasting application suite released as free and open-source software. Freeseer is a project of the Free and Open Source Software Learning Centre (FOSSLC), a not-for-profit organization.

Purpose

Its primary purpose is conference recording and has been used at conferences like OSGeo's FOSS4G, FSOSS, and more.[3] The software renders videos in an Ogg format. Its video source options are USB (e.g. internal/external webcam) or desktop. Freeseer consists of three different dependent programs: a recording tool (which is the main tool), a configuration tool, and a talk-list editor.

History

Since 2008, FOSSLC has been recording open source events around the world. To reduce recording costs, gain more control over the recordings, and achieve a more portable recording solution, FOSSLC began investigating alternatives and in-house options.[4]

In 2009, Freeseer was developed to make recording video extremely easy.[5] Its primary goal was to make recording large conferences with many talks possible on a frugal budget and ensure recordings are high quality. Freeseer began as a proof of concept when a command line hack using strictly open source components was used to record video from a vga2usb device and audio from a microphone.[4]

On May 28, 2022, the Freeseer project page on GitHub was archived, indicating no further development was to be expected.[2]
