Also there are some media formats that can be used on a Mac but not on Windows and vise versa (eg.

Note that for sharing a project it should be noted there are a few effects on Mac that will render on Windows, but cannot be edited on Windows. All of the edits and files used in the project will be added to a zip file that can then be opened on Windows. If the Mac user has imported the recording into a project and already done some editing that you do not want to lose, then on the Mac side, you can choose to export the project for Windows. You can also share from Windows to Mac as well. So, for example, if you record on Mac but do all of the editing on Windows, just use the recording file directly. So I would love to hear more precise details and confirmation from Techsmith about their “M1 support”.If your version of Camtasia is recording to the TREC formulas (most likely the case unless you have an old version), you can share that file directly across platform. So this is a huge disappointment for me, because I got the M1 system precisely because I thought it would save time in rendering video - but for Camtasia that will be true only if Techsmith one day decide to release an M1 native version. For the same file, rendering with Camtasia on an M1 chip is unbearably slow, which people have been commenting on elsewhere on this forum. Currently tasks like exporting videos are painfully slower than on comparative Intel chips: I have both an M1 Mac Mini, which I thought would be faster, and a maxed out a Intel MacBook Pro: the Intel based MacBook Pro has way faster render times than the M1 Mac Mini. This of course would be needed to take full advantage of the speed of this architecture. (I would welcome a comment from Techsmith on this)

So far I have not heard Techsmith officials confirm they are ever planning “native support” for the M1 chip. It will thus cost more money, for development, testing and release of each version.This means having to maintain an additional separate version of the software going forward. Supporting Apple Silicon natively would mean “splitting the code base” for each product like Camtasia.I cannot speak for Techsmith about the lack of “native M1” chip support, but as a former developer, here is my guess:

You are welcome to install Camtasia 2.10.8 on a Mac running a compatible operating system / compatible hardware and continue using it as expected, however in order to run Camtasia on an M1-based Mac running OS 11 Big Sur then you would need to look into upgrading (see here).įeel free to reach out if you have any further questions.

Given the age of Camtasia 2, it will not be compatible with Mac OS 11 (for more information on OS compatibility, please see here )- Note, too, that as development of Camtasia 2 on Mac ended in November of 2016, there are no plans to update Camtasia 2 to make it compatible with the Apple Silicon platform.

In order to record System Audio on an M1 chip, please reach out to us for instructions on how to do so. TechSmith Camtasia does not natively support Apple Silicon, but will work via Rosetta on Macs with the M1 Chip as of Camtasia 2020.0.13 and later. As seen in the support article, 'Apple Silicon, Rosetta, and the M1 Chip. Sorry to hear the issue that you're running into.
