Nice tool, and I like the free trial time. I've done the same analysis using dry erase markers right on a CRT TV screen, but this is much more professional. Capturing the video is nice, but the analysis is the real key. It would be nice to be able to build that in. Nice program.

StrokeAnalyzer was writtem for Windows pc. I assume it should run fine on a MAC in one of the Windows emulators, but I have never tried it.
