<div dir="auto">A & NMGLugers, I found that site correct and clear. A - you already are sudo privileged. I think you and I walked you through a sudo update. Best to get your desired ffmpeg from Debian to start with. If it is not new enough you can try the external repository later. Give it a try. You can call me later. I'm going out for a walk just now. Thank you, Ted P</div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, Sep 20, 2020, 9:32 AM a <<a href="mailto:a@kaluta.us">a@kaluta.us</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

A long time ago (2009) I had success with recordmydesktop:

Unfortunately it hasn't seen any development since then, and
I've seen
<br>
it removed from some package repos due to lack of maintenance.
It might
<br>
still work if you try it though.
<br>
<br>
If you run GNOME, it should come with a screen recorder
built-in.
<br>
But I haven't used it and can't speak to its usability.

Personally I use ffmpeg for this. It's very powerful, if you
don't mind
<br>
digging through some manuals. E.g.,
<br>
<br>
ffmpeg -video_size 1680x1050 -framerate 30 -f x11grab -i :0.0 \
<br>
-c:v libx264 -qp 0 -preset ultrafast output.mkv
<br>
<br>
For webcams I use a program called video(1) that comes with
OpenBSD.
<br>
But it isn't available for Linux; I'm not sure what you would
use there.
