103 TopicsDropbox capture: we need to keep it active

We gone into great lengths in training out team in using this user friendly tool, that we strongly believe Dropbox should reconsider.433Views9likes4CommentsAllow editing of Dropbox Capture transcription (and thus closed captions)
I am trying out Dropbox Capture. Unlike Loom, there appears to be no capacity to edit transcripts and associated closed captions. Surely I am mistaken! The ability to edit a transcript (with flow-on effects to closed captions) is integral to reliable video production. Please remedy. I won't be using DB Capture until that is done.5.1KViews7likes14CommentsPrint Screen doesn't save screenshots to dropbox anymore

When I do a screen recording using Dropbox Capture (v94.0.3), the resulting video skips and buffers upon playback. It's unwatchable. I have tried waiting for the full video to load before playing it - that does not help. I've uninstalled and reinstalled Dropbox Capture - that doesn't help. Cleared my cache too, that didn't fix it. I'm using Windows 11 on a PC, and other screen recording software does not do this (Loom, the native Microsoft screen record software, etc). The capture feature works just fine for still images so there is only a problem with screen recording. I've been using Dropbox Capture for a few months since it was in beta--this was not a problem about a month ago. Anyone have a solution?10KViews5likes47CommentsOpen Feedback to Dropbox
Dropbox has the potential to make a huge leap forward not by inventing something radically new, but by strengthening and bundling the tools it already has. Hereâs what could truly make the difference for many professionals and businesses: Reintroduce and expand Dropbox Capture. Today, video and screen recording is a daily need for teams, customer support, and remote collaboration. This tool should not disappear, it should be stronger. Enhance and integrate e-signature features. Make them more seamless, reliable, and part of the core Dropbox experience. For the Italian market, enabling authentication with the CIE (Electronic Identity Card) would make the application a must-have and extremely interesting. Boost DocSend, review its interface and make it more user-friendly. The tool is powerful, but its full potential emerges only when itâs intuitive to use and included in an accessible bundle. Significantly increase file sync capacity. Many users complain about the ~500,000 files (or performance decline oltre i ~300.000 file sincronizzati sul computer) limit in Dropboxâs desktop app The winning move would be to create a unified, accessible bundle that combines these tools at a fair price. This would bring clear, tangible value to users and set Dropbox apart from competitors in a meaningful way. Sometimes innovation is not about the next big thing. Itâs about making what you already have indispensable.129Views3likes2CommentsPlease keep Dropbox Capture
