Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xvidcap
When trying to record video from a Firefox window which contains an embedded flash video Xvidcap fails after the "Start recording" button is clicked with this error : " The program 'xvidcap' received an X Window System error. This probably reflects a bug in the program. The error was 'BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)'. (Details: serial 1808 error_code 8 request_code 139 minor_code 4) (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously; that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it. To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.) " I've tried the latest version of Opera so this is not a Firefox specific issue.
