Chico, Calif. (Feb. 18, 2002)- CHICO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 12, 2002--OPTX International announces that its ScreenWatch(TM) Software creates more effective presentations with the integration of Milori Software's Training Tools. With ScreenWatch Producer(TM) and Milori's Training Tools, the presenter can mark up, magnify, and highlight important points in a presentation while creating high-quality desktop recordings. ScreenWatch is the only scalable screen recording solution that combines video and voice with applications, spreadsheets, PowerPoint, and whiteboard content in real-time for streaming. With Milori Software, ScreenWatch users have an exceptional suite of professional tools that makes computer training and presentations exciting and effective. "Screen mark-up tools and screen recordings have been around for a long time, but the quality of these older technologies have never benefited presenters," comments OPTX International's President, Brian Meyerpeter. "Now a presenter can take full advantage of these cutting edge technologies. Full customization of line thickness and color can be done in real-time. Screen arrows and keystrokes dissolve as quickly as a point is communicated, and you can see these special effects while you record. There are no surprises on playback." With a click of the mouse, users open Milori's Finger Prince, MagLens, PC Chalkboard, and Audisee. Finger Prince delivers easy access to reference documents, help files, web pages, and sound effects used in presentations. PC Chalkboard creates a clear "sheet" that enables users to indicate direction and location of drag and drop with arrows and other mark-up tools. MagLens magnifies a demonstrator's mouse location for clear identification. With Audisee, audiences follow screen action effortlessly. Audisee displays a customized "star burst" at the tip of a demonstrator's cursor when the mouse is clicked. Shortcut keys are displayed as they are typed by "heads up" displays of key strokes and time clocks that fade from view after a few seconds. Milori's Training Tools earned the Five Stars Award from ZDNet Software Review. "Ever since our company was founded in 1995, our mission has always been to create easy-to-use software for presenters," comments Milori's President, Mark Hunter. "Combining ScreenWatch software with our Training Tools suite increases the value of OPTX's Workplace Communicator(TM) and Classroom Edition(TM) applications for corporate and university communicators and standup instructors. Like OPTX, we hope to make it faster and easier to communicate a wide variety of materials and information to a receptive audience." ScreenWatch Producer is the only screen capture software supporting RealServer, Linux(R), Solaris(TM), HP-UX, and Windows 2000/NT systems. ScreenWatch records using Windows 2000 and XP.
