Fedora :: Install Kazam Screen Desktop Recorder On F15?
Jun 1, 2011
I need a screen recorder - but today I did. Being a quite recent Fodora convert I had a quick squint about the forums and found nothing but problems with the more well known desktop recorders or commandline ffmeg / mencoder solutions.A name that did crop up a few times is KAZAM - an Ubuntu Launchpad project... hmmm I thinks - shouldn't be too hard to get up on F15 being a python script... this Fedora solution is based on the Debian howto found here: [URL] And here it is:
1) You will need a few tools and dependencies 1st:
Code:
sudo yum install bzr intltool python-keybinder gnome-python-rsvg python-xlib python-distutils-extra python-pycurl x264-libs
2) Grab the code branch from launchpad by bzr:
Code:
sudo bzr branch lp:kazam
3) change into Kazam folder and install:
Code:
cd kazam
sudo python setup.py install
4) Job done!
You'll now have an Applications -> Sound & Video -> Kazam Screencaster shortcut in your menu Once you have started a recording (with audio if you like and have pulse setup) you can pause / stop from the bottom panel applet and can then save the MKV to disk for or open further editing. The "Edit with" option does not seem to be working yet - at least not on my machine but that is no major hardship

What desktop screen recorders are there? I've tried Istanbul and gtk, and they didn't work on my computer. The other problem is they don't output into a format that can be used on other platforms. At the moment, I need to use BSR in the Windows side of my computer.

Is there a Sound Recorder like the Total Recorder for Windows? Someone told me to use Audacity, but Audacity recorded the mic input (e.g. the net radio sound through the speakers together with the noise of the room). Maybe I just cannot find the right settings.

I'm happily using recordmydesktop-gtk. What I can't figure out is if it's possible to record other then sounds from microphone even system's sounds. For instance, if I start recording while a video is playing in totem I would like to record video sound too. Otherwise if I'm recording some action with windows or programs I would like to record warning/error sound too.

I would use Istanbul but it was made for the gnome desktop so it doesn't work. I'm using unity 11.04 natty.

I've tried using recordmydesktop, Istanbul, XvidCap, and RecordItNow. I can get video, but no audio. I tried them on Ubuntu 10.04. On 10.04, recordmydesktop never saved. It just hung, and then I needed to reboot.I just tried recordmydesktop on Ubuntu 11.04 Gnome with no luck. The video saved, but there was no audio.

anyone knew of a good variant of recordmydesktop (Or some better screen recorder) that was user/..... friendly? I want to record let's plays of SNES games (Via ZSNES), and have so far been having multiple complications with recordmydesktop (I.E. Having to use Audacity for sound, choppy emulation, general annoyance, etc...).

Anyone know a good screen recorder than can record OpenGL games with little or no lag? All the ones I've come across are old and won't compile on newer versions of Ubuntu.

I cannot install FC11 or FC10 on my Dell XPS One/A2420 machine. Every time I tried to install the Linux operating system, the screen goes black and the computer goes no response. It seems to have something to do with the video card--Intel GMA X4500HD Graphics.

I want to use Kazam Screencaster to record my vids, but it goes to the tray when you record, and I don't use a panel (my desktop is the very definition of minimalistic. I just use all shortcuts and terminal.)
is there any way I can record/stop it with the terminal?

I had a video capture card installed in one of the pci ports, I exchanged it for the new pci card, but I don't think it is installed. I did "lspci" and I see that the system still thinks that I still have the old video card.

Did a clean install with 11.2 after being very impressed with the LiveCD. After installation process finished, laptop booted up and I had a green screen, no icons and a mouse cursor. REALLY liked the way the OS performed on the LIVECD and would like to give it a real shot.I can install Fedora 11, Ubuntu, Madriva and Mint Linux with no problem on the same Toshiba laptop.

In previous versions of Fedora, I used to test my microphone using gnome-sound-recorder. Currently I"m using F12 and didn't see gnome sound recorder.

I want to run SoundRecorder (or audacity). I just want to create a small audio file. I can't seem to get the mike to record. I start the record function and expect to see changes in the "Level" indicator that correspond to sounds that I utter.
-Search of google shows lots on solutions for non fedora 14
-FAQ - no hits
-Musicians Guide is 248 pages long and I did not see a solution for this simple case.
I have installed jack-audio, audacity and dependencies.

I basically can't get my mic to work in F12. After several releases fighting with pulseaudio, F11 finally worked almost OBO, after going to system->preferences->advanced sound configuration and setting all the input volumes to the maximum. But now there's no advanced sound configuration tool, and I just can't find anything to make it work. Skype isn't working, nor is gnome-sound-recorder. I do record some static, but nothing more. By the way, I'm on an Acer Timeline 3810T.

I put together a little computer recently to hook to a TV.The problem I'm having is that when I start the computer up and get to the desktop... the desktop is off the edges of the screen. I checked the resolution and it's 1920x1080.I can't see the panels my applications menu, as they're both off the edge of the screen. Is there anything that can be done to correct this? Also, the TV has no settings to correct this problem.

Trying to install Ubuntu 10.04 desktop (amd64) on this brand new system:
I connected the Dell ST2410 24" Full HD Widescreen LCD to the HDMI port on the ATI card and Windows 7 boots up just fine.
So then I put in the "ubuntu-10.04-desktop-amd64.iso" CD in drive and reboot the system. I see the Ubuntu logo with the dots for a while and then the LCD goes black. The LCD reports that there is no signal from the system. The power light in front of the LCD goes from white to amber. The keyboard stops responding.
I power off everything, remove the Ubuntu CD and reboot the system and it works fine again with Windows 7.
The CD has no problems. At boot time, I checked it for defects and it reports no errors. At boot time, I used this same CD to check the system for memory errors. No memory errors. I used the same CD to install Ubuntu on other systems and had no problems.
The 16X DVDRW Drive has no problems. In Windows 7 it can play CDs and DVDs.

I have installed Fedora 8 before 5 months. I normally use Eclipse, java, firefox, tomcat. Nowadays when I am working in any of the said applications suddenly my desktop goes off like a blank screen as if my monitor switched off. After 30 secs or sometime the user login page comes. I need to restart all my work again. I use gnome.

When trying to "Leave" the system (either via the small button on the lower right of the taskbar or by right clicking on the Desktop and selecting "Leave") the logout / shutdown / restart screen comes up. I have the "Logout" desktop effect activated, which is supposed to desaturated the background when the Leave screen appears. However, instead of simply greying out the background, the image on the desktop and the rest of the screen also gets slightly distorted, with seemingly random distortion effects cropping up all over the place (e.g. horizontal lines or large blurs).
These distortions are different every time the Leave screen comes up. The Leave screen itself is displayed fine, and apart from the dodgy background I have no other issues with the whole process (the system shuts down or restarts properly according to my choice). I am using the Radeon drivers, and all other desktop effects I have on (Magic lamb, cover switch, present windows, etc) work fine and without a hitch. It's only the Logout effect that seems to glitch. Are the distortions intentionally created by the effect in order to emphasize the focus on the Leave screen?

I hadn't used my laptop in a month or so and it had a couple hundred updates to install. Everything went fine and upon reboot I am met with a bizarre login screen. It shows my like every process and program in a list, my username is in the list as is root. I can login as either, but when I do it only boots to terminal.
