I have head of that. never really used anything, but I have done this: ffmpeg -f x11grab -s 1024x768 -r 29 -i :0.0 -target ntsc-dv -y foo.dv You can also use vnc with one of these: http://www.unixuser.org/~euske/vnc2swf/ http://www.sodan.org/~penny/vncrec/ I have tried to do the vnc thing, but didn't put much effort into it, got bored, moved on. I would like to get back to that someday, so let me know if you get it to work. -- Carl K _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list PLUG@lists.pdxlinux.org http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
