For Philip Yassin (whose excellent YouTube videos I love) or anyone, could
you recommend a particular screen capture program for Linux (to use to make
YouTube videos, etc.)
I've used OBS for the radium videos. I also tried simplescreenrecorder,
but it wasn't up to the task of capturing 1900x1000x60 without using too
much CPU
or skipping frames. https://obsproject.com/

OBS (Open Broadcast Software) looks very interesting. Thank you very much.

May I ask which version and Linux distribution you are using with OBS? OBS
version 14.04/15.04+ for Ubuntu (.deb package) after being installed and
launched, freezes and causes an unresponsive desktop very soon (mouse still
moves, but clicks have no effect, and key presses on the keyboard have no
effect) in Linux Mint 18 (most recent Linux Mint), Mate desktop version
(not Cinnamon, not XFCE).
Thank you.

There's also Record My Desktop, that works good for some situations.

My 2 cents.

I think the problem I had with OBS (freeze requiring hardware reset button
to reboot computer) might have been caused by the fact that I have an
Nvidia graphic card (I now feel it might have been better to use an Intel
graphic card) but was using the open-source nouveau driver for the card
rather than the Nvidia proprietary driver.
I installed the Nvidia driver, rebooted the machine, and so far OBS is
working well and reliably, and in fact, I'm impressed with the flexibility
and features of OBS. As you mentioned, it will take some time to understand
and make efficient, knowledgeable use of the OBS streaming/screen-recording
application, but it seems to be much more full-featured and configurable
than the other screen-capture programs I've tried.
Thank you again for recommending OBS (Open Broadcasting Software)

Well, it took a little learning on my part, but I managed to use OBS to
create a new video for YouTube--

Thank you Kjetil Matheussen for recommending OBS
screen-recording/streaming/broadcasting software (and for everyone else's
recommendations as well).
