"Open Broadcaster Software is free and open source software for recording and live streaming. Source code is available to everyone to contribute and improve. Both 32 and 64 bit versions are available and it's absolutely free!" (c) obsproject.com
This soft is a good alternative for FFsplit: it's also very fast (not so heavy as XSplit), and it has more features!
Why it's better? It has more powerfull scene organiser: you can choose to capture only a window with some application (your browser, AOC, etc.).
There is also a free scene switcher (like BugA created for XSplit). So OBS can automatically change scene when you are in game or not.
Some more features I found interesting:
- stream delay (useful for tournaments!)
- microphone gain (FFsplit has some problems with mic volume - here is all ok)
