I’m using Ubuntu, and I’d like to try and record the development of my entry as a video, but I’m finding it difficult to find a program to do it.<\/p>\n

It looks like XVidCap is the best thing available, but it crashes a lot. I want something that will work without using lots of resources, but I’m not gonna pay for it.<\/p>\n

Anyone have any suggestions what I should use?<\/p>","time":"December 16th, 2010 2:51 pm","title":"Screen Cast"}
