Audio/Video Capture
Mac Video Capture: Basic information about capture devices for OS X.
Mac Audio Capture: Information about audio capture, recording, and management on OS X.
Recording
ScreenFlow: Screen recording software that also offers post-production and encoding features.
Norichan: Designed to record from EasyCAPs (Syntek model only). Handles composite video very well.
EasyCapViewer: Alternative to Norichan. Its recording feature isn't as good as Norichan's, but it supports all EasyCAP models as well as vsync.
Syphon Recorder: You can use this to record anything that uses Syphon.
SyphonInject: Allows any OpenGL application to temporarily share its video frames with Syphon. It can then be selected as a source in Syphon Recorder or CocoaSplit.
Streaming
CocoaSplit: Stream software with support for Syphon, AVFoundation, multiple sources, CoreImage effects, preview editing, local recording, etc. The go-to stream solution for OS X.
CamTwist: Video broadcasting software that lets you combine multiple sources and produce professional-looking feeds. Can be used in conjunction with CocoaSplit.
Open Broadcaster Software: Currently unfinished, yet functional alternative to CocoaSplit.
Kumari: Simple desktop region streaming. It does not support overlays, window capture, or CBR, but is very lightweight and simpler than any other option.
Wirecast: Very expensive alternative to CocoaSplit.
QuickTime Broadcaster: Another alternative to CocoaSplit. Very out-of-date, but still usable.
Flash Media Live Encoder: Very antiquated option. Does not support x264, Syphon, or CamTwist 3.0, but can still be used with old versions of CamTwist.
Encoding
Yua: Encoding software designed to easily and quickly produce SDA-accepted videos.
ffmpeg: Command line swiss army knife. It does decoding, encoding, streaming, conversions, everything. More flexible than anything else but has a learning curve.
HandBrake: Powerful encoding software. Less simple than Yua as it requires standard encoding knowledge to use properly.
Avidemux: Same as HandBrake.
Compressor: Same as HandBrake. Part of Apple's suite of pro applications.
Timing
Time Split Tracker: Simple split timer with support for images and customizability.
Llanfair: Same as above. Requires Java.
ShitSplit: Handles in-game time for games like Sonic.
Splits: Same as TST.
