[Hampshire] recording a webex seminar

2011-12-08 Thread Edward Beckmann
Hi

I want to listen to a webex webinar session and also record it, but am
struggling to find a recent posting on forums about what to record with.
Anyone had success with this please?

Currently on ubuntu 10.04 netbook, mint 9 fluxbox and mint 11 lxde.

Thanks

You want to record the audio only or the video too?

I'd use a screencasting tool/script to do it myself. it's horrid but
it means you can capture the window/desktop and audio to a file and
use later.

Sorry - mainly interested in the audio only but knowing both would prevent
a future posting.

Only screen grabbers I have tried is krecord, which was naff (for me). So
I'm starting with zero knowledge I'm afraid. Has one of your blog postings
done it?

Thanks

I wrote a script called ffscreencast.sh which I uploaded to launchpad.
Take a look at that for video+audio.

I ripped out the video bits and made it audio only here:-

Just tested on my machine and it works okay. Needs parec and sox if
you don't already have them.

Cheers,
Al.

You can use ffmpeg w/ the x11grab indev (usually needs recompiling with 
support) and will happily record anything pushed to any monitor from your PC.

Example command (just for video)

ffmpeg -f x11grab -s 1152x864 -sameq -sws_flags lanczos -flags mv4 -i :0.1 -an 
milkdrop -pass 2

Where -an exists, you need to find the relevant /dev/snd/* entry and use -i 
/dev/snd/pcm### and vary audio rate with -ab (128k) -ac (1/2/3/4 etc)

I been using ffmpeg do record anything that occurs on your screen (even games  
movies) and generally being a geek.
