14:51.22plarsenstickster, do you remember what the screen-recorders are called for Fedora?
14:54.21sticksterplarsen, In F15 there's the shell recorder
14:54.27sticksterCtrl+Alt+Shift+R
14:54.53sticksterplarsen, In F14 there's several... istanbul (which is breakage-prone), gtkrecordmydesktop (less so), and byzanz (I prefer this one)
14:55.28plarsenAhhh - ok. I was just installing istanbul and gtkrecordmydesktop
14:55.36plarsenNever heard of byzanz?
14:56.14plarsenWhere does ctrl-alt-shift-r put it's recordings?
14:57.41plarsenLooks like byzanz records images only?
14:57.44plarsenNeed sound too
15:06.42plarsenI like ctrl-shift-alt-r - seems pretty nifty.
15:07.01plarsenI just wish I could set it's parameters?

15:48.50sticksterplarsen, the shell recorder puts recordings in your home directory as *.webm files by default
15:49.22plarsenyeah found them; I just can't figure out how to configure WHAT to record (a window, with/without sound etc)
15:49.57sticksterplarsen, It's the whole desktop
15:50.03plarsendarn it - I am still fighting my wireless on F15 :(
15:50.09plarsenstickster, and you cannot change that?
15:50.16sticksterplarsen, Not in 3.0
15:50.28plarsenok
15:50.32plarsenDoes it record sound?
15:50.38plarsenIt sounded pretty silent when I did my test
15:50.52sticksterplarsen, It only records video aiui... but you can add audio with pitivi or something if you like
15:51.04plarsenpitivi ??
15:51.06sticksterplarsen, byzanz will do both, records from default PA source I believe
15:51.18plarsenhmm - byzanz seemed to just do a gif ?
15:51.29plarsenIstanbul worked with sound
15:51.36plarsen(once I enabled it)
15:51.37sticksterplarsen, You can set that -- animated gif (video only), flash flv (video only), or ogg (video + audio)
15:51.46plarsenohhhh
15:53.25plarsennice and hidden deep in the man page.
15:53.34plarsenOk - that'll get me going. thanks!
15:53.51plarsenNow if I can just get this darn wireless thing to work ;)
15:54.36sticksterplarsen, cool :-)
16:01.48jsmithstickster: What, and not use PulseCaster for the audio?
16:01.51jsmithblinks
16:02.57sticksterjsmith, You could record with that and then mix. But I think it might make better videos to record the video first, and then narrate it later.
16:03.04sticksterLike most movies, commercials, etc. do
16:03.21jsmithYeah, I find the audio to be more "sterile" that way
16:03.51jsmithused to do a lot of screencasts, and it's hard to reproduce the expression of live teaching when recording the audio after the fact
