I'd rather see a demo instead of a highly edited video with split second shots of the product.

Isn't https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsqCySU4Ln0 (linked above) that?

Here's what we always tell founders about demo videos: "What works well for HN is raw and direct, with zero production values. Skip any introductions and jump straight into showing your product doing what it does best. Voiceover is good, but no logos or music!"

The video I provided was a raw, uncut, video. The editing is done by Screen Studio, which only does the "zoom" effect. But there's no studio magic there. I didn't speed anything up or cut out buggy bits or even do a retake!
