Body: <p>I have a need to record a lecture. I would like to capture video of the speaker and video of his slides.</p>
  
  <p>Optimally, I would like to hook up two recording devices, hit record on one program, then the program will record a video stream for each device. When I am done recording I would like to hit stop once on the program and then I would have two videos that are the same length and are basically synchronized. Later I would like the same benefit in editing for simple functions like trimming.</p>
  
  <p>Is there such a program available? Prefer windows but open to other options.</p>
