Anyone a recommendation for Windows? Something simple and lightweight? (Screenstudio is Mac only)

I record these videos for my workplace on windows.

We use Loom + Davinci Resolve - it's nowhere near as smooth as screenstudio

With which of these 2 software can you do the "zoom in", "move mouse cursor", and "zoom out"?

It's done in two steps, first use loom to record the mouse movement in much higher res than needed and then use resolve to zoom, follow and frame as needed.

> to record the mouse movement in much higher res than needed

how can this be done? if the monitor resolution is say 1600 x 900, how can it record the frames and/or mouse movement in higher resolution than this?

I've a 4k monitor and we publish 1080p videos.

Record at 4k with loom - that gives you mouse cursors. Then edit in Davinci to get the zoom effect
