Introduction to Screencasting in Linux – recordMyDesktop
Screencasting is a great way to share information. I use it to show bugs to my team, to record training videos of the project management system I am working on, and even to record demos of project deliveries to clients. I use Jing to record videos from my Mac. But wanted to find something useful for Linux.
recordMyDesktop is a great Linux tool to record the entire desktop, a portion or an application. It outputs Ogg format video, which can easily be converted to AVI, QuickTime or FLV. It’s been there for a while, and is pretty solid.
What sold me though, was this video explaining how to use recordMyDesktop – and then to convert saved video into other formats. It’s easy to follow and covers all important aspects.
