I need to take a screen capture while an application is running. The application is a touch screen calibration utility and alt-Prnt Scrn does not work when the calibration utility is active. Is there another way for me to capture the screen while the utility is active?

Im trying to create some screencast videos on Ubuntu. As its a well known fact we dont have a very good screencasting too like Camtasia(only windows) on linux.
After googling extensively I zeroed on Xvidcap for screen capturing and Audacity for audio capture.
According to tutorial [url] first we need to run Xvidcap (do the screen capturing recording first) and then again use Audacity for audio recording .. then mix both video and audio.
I guess this is a pain staking process (running video and audio recording seperately), I thought of running Xvidcap and Audacity simultaneously, if i do this xvicap works perfectly (video capturing happens) but audio capture through audacity does not work.
Note: I even try to run the above tools from seperate terminals/consoles (assuming they are seperate processes)
I even disabled 'audio' in xvidcap and tried to run both at the same time but audacity refuses to work.
I think both the tools are trying to use the same system resources ... and audacity is unable to get hold of the required resources.
Can we run both independently at the same time ?
Anyone knows of a video capturing tool for Linux that can work like FRAPS in Windows? Basically capture a window or full workspace in video.

What Ubuntu Sees:
I have Ubuntu Server Ed. installed (so no Gnome) and was wondering if it's possible to capture screen shot images?
I'm using Subversion, and need to capture screen shots of some merge collisions you see.
Everything is being done via the terminal.
I have installed XVidCap Screen Capture. If I record my screen with XVid Cap Screen Capture there is no sound. But if I record with Desktop Recorder there is sound. What is wrong?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having problems with the screen capture utility in Fedora 11. Everytime i capture a screenshot, it looks like this:[url]
I've tried turning off Compiz, but that doesn't do anything. I suspect it may have something to do with the kms (I have an Intel 82855/855GM, which has had issues in beta).
I wonder if there is the possibility of getting to press any key and the F6 for example, Fedora starts up a screenshot, equal to application "form screen capture image" in the menu acessories .. The problem is that if I want to do this I have to be opening up the application every time .. and I like to do with was fast, just by clicking F6 or printscreen for example ..
View 14 Replies View RelatedOn my Windoze machine, I use Replay Media Catcher 4 which runs silently in the background and captures any videos (FLV, AVI, MPG, WMV, etc) on any websites that I happen to go to, and saves them to a folder on my hard drive. Right now, if I want to save a video that I'm wathing from Ubuntu, I have to go to /temp, guess which file it is, and copy it after it downloads fully but before it finishes playing, otherwise Firefox deletes it from /temp right away. This is a pain.
Yes, there are screen motion capture utilities in the Ubuntu Software Center, but they're just screen scrapers that result in low quality copies without any audio. I want something that will actually capture the video stream and save it as a file. Even if it doesn't save all videos automatically like RMC4, and I have to right click on the video to Save As, that would be better than copying it from /temp at the precise exact moment.
As the title says, I'm looking for a command to resize on the fly as I capture. My desktop's 1680x1050, but I want to shrink down to say 1280x720.. or other.
So far my command is code...
I want to make a demo of a 3d app I'm writing, but I don't know of any good screencasting software like it that runs on Linux.

The sort of add on for Firefox 'download helper' now has a new screen capture thing, in case it won't download the video from a particular site. You click the red button and a purple boundary appears round the video frame. I assume this is the basic function of the thing; it then provides the geometry of the purple frame to the program you've given it to capture the video.
By default the program it uses is 'recordmydesktop'. I've tried using this but get sound from the laptop's internal microphone, not the video. Tried 'pavucontrol' to remedy this but it says (wrongly) that no program is recording, so can't put things right.
So tried using ffmpeg: [URL]
Assume the stuff in curly brackets is what download helper supplies. Sometimes works perfectly but with B.BC. i-player only get the top left hand corner of the video and it is stretched somewhat horizontally.
I look and look and it doesn't tell its name and whom made it so one can go there and install it on Firefox or whatever.
Have tested many of the addons for FF but none is as good as the one in Debian Elive 2.0 the unstable Elive don't have it. Ubuntu doesn't either.
Searched Debian and Elive sites and used google but fail to find it.
Could it be Shutter program that doesn't advertise itself?
Shutter is supposed to be a good screen grabber.
This screen grabber is activated by pushing the PrtScr button and not by clicking a symbol as the others are. So maybe it is built into Elive itself but not mentioned anywhere?
I want to use it on Elive 1.9 Zeitgeist.
I am trying to create a screen capture program with Xvfb server, ImageMagick and Khtml2PNG. I seem to be having some issues and was hoping someone could help me out. I have everything installed and working on a centos WHM/CPanel system and am able to generate the screen shots and save them to root folder from shell with the following commands.
Xvfb :2 -screen 0 1024x768x24&
export DISPLAY=localhost:2.0
khtml2png2 --sw 200 --sh 150 http://www.example.com example.png
It works 100% fine when you run it from shell.

As the thread states, I wonder why my RAM usage is about 56% without any application running. It turns to 58% while opening Firefox (with only one Tab/Page opened) and typing this post. Is there something wrong?
