    FlashBack Pro is a Windows-based screen recording program, distributed by Blueberry Software Limited.[1][2][3] It allows the user to add text effects, cut and paste movie footage and edit mouse movements. Recordings are initially saved in a proprietary format which can be opened and edited in the associated editor. Once editing is complete they can be exported to Flash, AVI, and a variety of other formats. A PowerPoint plug-in is also deployed with the program's installer. A freeware version of this program was released in April 2009.[4]

    The development company that makes the program began in 1997 as Blueberry Consultants, a software development company producing tailor-made software projects. In summer 2003, Blueberry Software Limited was created and released the first version of BB FlashBack.

    FlashBack files have default file extension as .FBR, which stands for "FlashBack Recording." A FBR file is a multimedia container format which includes the recorded screen and separate audio tracks (i.e. desktop audio, microphone). Standard FlashBack video is based on lossless GDI[citation needed] video but can be converted in the editor to lossy MPEG-4 format to reduce size.
