General :: Video Capturing Program To Record Computer Screen
Jul 10, 2011
I'm just wondering if there is a video capturing program that can, at the least record what is on my computer screen (including what is on Wine) and at the most capture what is on my webcam as well.
Have a television card on the computer. Works perfectly well and it would be nice to use the computer as a television program recorder. Buggering about with a DVD recorder is a lot of trouble. How is it possible to do this - surely pretty basic - job? Buggered if I know. It is important to compress the thing into *.avi format or something like that. Otherwise it takes up a huge amount of space.
whenever i try to record a video with gtk screen recorder it starts lagging and when the video is over and you wanna watch it there is a major sound and video lag and nothing is as it should be (could the desktop effects be the issue)?
im looking for a good screen recorder that can record video from my desktop and audio through a mic and i need it to export the files as mp4 so i can edit it. i can use terminal commands if necessary but would prefer a GUI because i only have a few days to learn the program.
Since I upgraded to 10.04 my Webcam (a logitech Quickcam Pro 4000) won't capture video.Ubuntu see it is there, but aMSN, Google Talk, Skype, and Cheese all give me nothing.
I want to capture DV-video through IEE1394 (FireWire) with Kino and Ubuntu 10.10. Seems I can't capture... When I plug in the camera there is no hot plug message (if there should be one? I've read it should...). The DV-out on the camera is enabled There is no option to enable/disable the port in my BIOS.
Some information: Code: a~# lspci | grep 1394 07:09.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C832 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 05) Hope there are some command to check?
I've been trying for a while now to capture videos with my webcam of my samsung n110 netbook, I am running ubuntu 10.4 and cheese 2.30.1. I can take pictures fine, with effects and everything but when I press "start recording" the webcam seems to turn off or all I see is a black image, then when I press stop recording the camera picture comes back on and then the program freezes. I've tried turning down the resolution, I've tried all the possibilities in gstreamer-properties but nothing helped so far running from terminal didn't give me a clue on what the problem might be either. I would like cheese to work to have photo and video in one program but if someone has a good program to capture video I am willing to try it out.
I am looking for a linux-based solution that will let me record a PDF slideshow to a video file with a voiceover. Google searching mostly revealed PPT -> movie export and/or <other> -> PDF, but I am planning on creating my slideshows with LaTeX Beamer, and would then like to record a video of my slides with my speech in voiceover. Furthermore, I am planning on posting these online and would really like to be able to embed hyperlinks, if possible, into the videos as they reference each other and/or external references.
I'm getting some jitter when capturing via RCA or S-Video from an em28xx device. Input type is PAL, other than that I haven't fiddled with mplayer or vlc's options (vlc only sees the RCA input, mplayer sees both)
I am having problems with ffmpeg. My goal is to capture a video stream from my webcam and feed that into a webcam-capturing program. But to get that to work, I will need ffmpeg to work. I need the following command to work, but I get an error:
Code: $ ffmpeg -b 100K -an -f video4linux2 -s 320x240 -r 10 -i $device -b 100K -f image2pipe -vcodec mjpeg - | perl -pi -e 's/\xFF\xD8/KIRSLESEP\xFF\xD8/ig' ffmpeg: relocation error: /usr/lib/libavfilter.so.2: symbol avformat_find_stream_info, version LIBAVFORMAT_53 not defined in file libavformat.so.53 with link time reference
I have four primary partitions currently. I need to keep all of them. I need to make a fifth that is also a primary partition. Is there a way to somehow make a partition into a partition that's in an extended partition without losing any data? Maybe you know of another solution to my problem, but this is the only one I can conjure up. The second problem is much less severe. I can't find any screen capturing software for Ubuntu that will record my desktop and simultaneously record sound from a microphone.
For those not familiar with the "motion" project it monitors your camera and when enough motion is detected in the video field of view it records that to a video file. The project website is here What I'm looking for is something like that but for audio, does anyone know of any Linux apps that can accomplish this?
I used to be able to do so with Windows, but not on Ubuntu. I tried everything, even the Sound recorder, and that doesn't work, either. The sound recorder barely registers the audio and Audacity just will not work no matter what I try.
How can I use my computer to record a telephone conversation? I'm not talking about skype or voip; I want to link my 'puter to my standard landline. Here's the scenario: I make occasional programmes for the local community radio station, pre-recording them on my computer, using a fairly decent microphone (via a mixer and pre-amp, feeding into the line-in socket on the sound card). Recording and editing is handled with Audacity, and, despite the hardware being basic stuff, I get pretty good spoken-word audio quality like this.
I want to be able to include telephone interviews with guests, preferably recorded using my mic/mixer setup so that at least my half of the conversation is of the usual studio quality. How can I achieve this? Is a voice modem the thing to use (and if so, could someone walk me through how to use one under Ubuntu, please), or are there other hardware or software solutions? The landline in question is a BT-type here in the UK.
I need to record Tx/Rx bw in my c program at defined intervals. I am aware that there a bunch of available tools but I need a minimal version with only Tx/Rx bw with no other details. I have tried the tool bwm-ng which mostly serves my purpose but either it runs continuously in the console or saves result in html file. It does not have any options to save the result in txt file which could have been easy to parse.
Is there any other simple way to record Tx/Rx bw in a program?(without using tools from /proc/net/ or any) I am using Mandriva Linux 2.6.31.5.
how do i get audacity to record what the computer is playing? for instance, if i have a videos video open in firefox and i want to record the audio, what would i have to do? i've played around with the audio setting in ubuntu and audacity 1.3.9 but i couldn't get it to work.
I just got a Hauppague HVR-2250 in the hopes of being able to watch and record tv on my computer. I followed this guide to install the drivers: [URL] It seems to have installed alright I cannot tell if it worked. I am not using MythTV, nor am I interested in MythTV. I just want a simple application to watch ATSC channels. Me-TV seems like an application that fits the bill. It says there are no digital tuners detected though. I don't know if the drivers did not install or if the card isn't supported by the application.
I am running Slackware -current and am using kde as my desktop environment. I'm not sure if this is a feature that I turned on my accident or a bug but its really annoying. When I start any program on the computer and it goes into the Task manager bar. If I click the bar to maximize the program or window it goes to the kde log on window. I am running KDE version 4.5.4.
I was running 9.04 and could, through some magical sequence of toggling options that I was unable to figure out, occasionally get recording from the mic to work in audacity. Ardour worked more reliably, but is kind of over-featured. Audacity is simpler and I know how to get things done. For a while, I was doing basic recording in Ardour, saving it to wav then editing in audacity.
Well, I noticed a howto on getting audacity working in 9.10... so I upgraded ("what could possibly go wrong?"). I still can't record audio in audacity and ardour is now ALSO unable to record audio. They start recording samples but nothing comes in but silence. I've got audacity set to ALSA/default/default and when I click monitor, the stream appears in the pavucontrol app. I've moved it to the input device and that doesn't seem to affect the results at all. Everything looks like it should be working fine except there's some invisible mute button, or something. Under alsamixer's Capture section, Mic has a red "CAPTUR" with no bar to adjust.
I want to record a line-in source Using the Audacity program. but the wave trace in the app is not symmetrical about the zero axis. This is not what I would have expected and I wonder if it will show up as poor quality recordings when I transfer to my hifi.
Is it possible to automatically run a program on a USB Flash drive upon plugging it on a computer?the program should create a text file inside the USB flash drive as i plug it on the computer? Is this possible? how can i do this? autorun.inf doesn't work. Are there any solutions? by the way, i am using kernel 1.0 on my computer...
Were we are we are now getting dinged by the gigabyte were up till now it was just a monthly cost for unlimited use. I guess they are fishing for more profits anyways I need a program that will record/track my monthly usage is their anything available like this for ubuntu?
For some reason, I cannot record video with cheese. I cannot record video and audio on ....., just video. I can record audio on sound recorder. Why can't I get both? I have an e-machines (acer)em-250, 2g ram, 2ghz intel atom processor. Using Moon Os 4 neak (ubuntu 10.10 variant). I have downloaded and installed ffmpeg, and all other codecs. I can also get video on google voice and video, but no audio. Obviously I have a built-in webcam and mic. I've had this problem with every ubuntu distro I've tried since Oct. of 2010. This netbook came with Win. xp, and I had no problems with this issue then. I would just REALLY like to be able to use my webcam and be able to record video and audio.
I have many video files that I'm trying to convert from *** to .mp4..Currently I'm using Handbrake which does a good job but getting it started is very tedious. In Handbrake I need to confirm and add to queue all of the files. When there are over 200 files at a time it takes way too long. If there is a way to not confirm all of the files please let me know.What program can I use to just add a folder and have it automatically add all of the files to my queue?
