			<description><![CDATA[Stop Motion Pro is apparently pretty good (and pretty expensive). But if you're going to spend that much, you might as well go all the way and buy Dragonframe. iKitMovie would be a less expensive solution if you want something similar to Honestech, but can be glitchy.

I wouln't recommend BOATS, yet, (unless you want to become a tester) since it's still in development and also is most likely prone to glitches. However, it would be something to think about in the future. 

legoguy501's suggestion seems like the best one here. And if that doesn't work for you, you won't have lost anything since those programs are free. 

And finally, have you tried contacting the Honestech customer service to see if they have a solution to your problems?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I would like editing in my software, that would be helpful. I am willing to pay, but I am open to free software. Honestech used to  have a playback option where you could see how everything is coming together, now, it seems to play the frames to slow, and then at the end of my film, it plays the frames too fast. There has been other issues where it can't open on my computer and can't load previous films.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote=Raptor Studios]I currently use Honestech Stop-motion studio 4.0.[/quote]

A couple of questions:
1. Are you looking for just capture software, or something that includes editing?
2. Are you wiling to pay for the software, or would you rather it be free?
3. What isn't working with Honestech?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Heron Animation (which I haven't used) is a free piece of software that looks decent. It has onion skinning, and gives you the option of exporting as frames or video. Here's its website: [url]https://www.heronanimation.brick-a-brack.com/[/url]

iKitMovie 4 is the software I use, though it's more of a complete animation package rather than just capture software. It has onion skinning, rig removal (masking), and a massive sound library that I find very convenient. 
Some if the downsides are the price ($70) and the fact that there's no DSLR support. 

Hope this helps.]]></description>
