From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A screencast is a digital recording of

computer screen output, also known as a video screen capture, often containing audio narration. 

Just as a screenshot is a picture of a user’s screen, a screencast is essentially a movie of the changes over time that a user sees on his monitor.
