I've just been editing the raw file of my talk from the website in 
kdenlive (just to clip it, adjust the volume and add an introductory 
slide). It had trouble using alsa until I worked out that you need to 
install 'libsdl1.2debian-alsa'. (in ubuntu, probably the same in debian).

Another gotcha that took me a while to work out is that the version of 
ffmpeg on ubuntu lucid won't read ogg theora videos properly, so you 
need to either use a newer distro, or compile your own ffmpeg from the 
website. (if you compile your own you need to add --enable-libtheora 
--enable-libvorbis to the configure flags to be able to export to ogg 
theora).

One question I have is whether you have captured the screenshot and 
camera streams separately on disk to edit later? The raw video of my 
talk spends a lot of time faded to the screenshot.

Hope this helps.
