Bugs Can Be Painful

Most developers think of software bugs as annoying but ultimately harmless. Sadly, as I found out today, that isn’t always true. It turns out that due to a bug in ScreenFlow, occasionally it will suddenly and inexplicably start playing extremely loud random noise instead of the soft, dulcet tones of the screen cast you were aiming for1.

I was wearing headphones at the time and even though the volume was turned down to just one click above mute, it didn’t seem to pay any attention to that and just about blew my eardrums out. I still have a headache from it.

Thankfully, it’s all done now – you can see the result, and see some of the new features in EditLive! 6.7 on Ephox TV.
