Program to record screen activity?

#1 Post by scientist »

Trying to find a program to record screen activity.

Tried Drec, but it does not create a video file.
Thanks,
Andy

:D Hello,
Try SimpleScreenRecorder.

I find its much better than Xvidcap or VLC...

Nice to add acodec parameters for sound too though or play around with same parameters in pAVrecord, which is in most puppies. Xvidcap and SSR more sophisticated and easier to use (albeit large install) though.

Some linuxians take time to create nice GUIs for newbies

Some linuxians take time to create nice GUIs for newbies, sharing so there knowledge, i want to thank them here..
Sure typing in terminal the magic formula will work too, if you know each code to use.. to compose the command..
pAVrecord is not the best, but at least it uses words from the dictionary. So non linuxians and non speaking English people had a chance to screen cast something..
Just tick cases... and it's not so easy, even with the gui

"pAVrecord, which is in most puppies. Xvidcap and SSR more sophisticated and easier to use (albeit large install) though."
It's an evidance.. use them.

There is no you tube video from geeks, why ? because they don't want to use ready for use tools, and they fail :P They pay Sneeky Linux !
