Package for screen recording

#1 Post by satimis »

Hi all,

Which software shall I run to record the screen (screencast) as video on the steps in re package installation and/or configuration?

A brief search finds follows;

Screenshots and screencasts
https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-h ... ecord.html

Please advise. Thanks

Regards
satimis

ffmpeg is a simplest variant for screen recording. See "x11grab" in "man ffmpeg".

Simple screen recorder is easy to use. Stick a webcam app like guvcview on the screen if you want to record yourself, too.

Hi,

I use vokoscreen to record all on the screen (images, sounds, mouse/trackpad movements,...), it is in the stable repositories.

I use gtk-recordmydesktop to to the recording, audacity to separate out the sound and then select a small section of quiet sound and apply that as a noise reduction to the whole track (and maybe amplify or attenuate the sound level as desired), and then use openshot video editor to pair that back with the video (turn the video tracks sound off, so that only the edited sound track is heard).

Learnt the basics/concept from SneekyLinux https://youtu.be/nD5pNz4OZjw (and other of his openshot audacity ...etc. videos)
