Excellent, thank you very much. :)

I worked with it last night, had a lot of fun, but I wish it had a few 
features I like in xvidcap. Also, the GTK version steadfastly refuses to 
acknowledge that there's really a Jack server running, but I'm getting 
along fine with the standard UI anyway.

I made up a test video last night with xvidcap. I edited it in LiVES, 
then added a soundtrack with Ardour2 and qjadeo. Cool tools, great fun.

Best,
