Re: [LAU] Desktop whole-screen audio/video recording

An update on this.

I still haven't been able to get simple screen recorder to compile, but have discovered what the problem was with recordmydesktop. In version 0.3.8 - as in debian testing - there is (at least) one error in the parser: Image Options --windowid=id_of_window id of window to be recorded. --display=DISPLAY Display to connect to. -x, --x=N>=0 Offset in x direction. -y, --x=N>=0 Offset in y direction. I'm guessing that the gui add-on is using the double dash version of the x & y positions, which is what I was doing. For some reason this gives a stupidly large screen size and the program quits. Using the single dash version seems to work, but you then seem to need just about all the parameters to be correctly set.
