Functionality
editThe user interface of Debut is divided into 4 major elements.[4] These include a Main toolbar, Recording controls, Record as Section, and the Preview Area.
Debut integrates with other software developed by NCH Software such as VideoPad, Movie Maker, Prism Video Converter and Express Burn Disc Burning Software.
Input types
editDebut is capable of recording video from various sources, including an external recording device, a computer screen, a webcam, or streaming video. Debut combines two applications – screen recording and video capture from webcams and external inputs.
Controversy and criticism
editIn the past, NCH Software applications downloaded Ask and Chrome Toolbars by default, triggering malware warnings from companies like McAfee and Norton. According to NCH Software, their software has not bundled the toolbars since July 2015, and are now certified safe by anti-virus companies like Norton and McAfee.[5][6][7]
A class-action lawsuit was filed against NCH Software in April 2016 relating to security vulnerabilities in the 2015 version of the program. The case was later dismissed.[8]
