A long time ago (2009) I had success with recordmydesktop: https://shallowsky.com/blog/linux/recordmydesktop.html I haven't tried recently, but it's a fairly simple app so with any luck it hasn't changed much. Back then, it was by far the easiest screen recorder I tried. ...Akkana

Unfortunately it hasn't seen any development since then, and I've seen it removed from some package repos due to lack of maintenance. It might still work if you try it though. If you run GNOME, it should come with a screen recorder built-in. But I haven't used it and can't speak to its usability. https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2018/06/gnome-shell-screen-recorder-ubuntu Personally I use ffmpeg for this. It's very powerful, if you don't mind digging through some manuals. E.g., ffmpeg -video_size 1680x1050 -framerate 30 -f x11grab -i :0.0 \ -c:v libx264 -qp 0 -preset ultrafast output.mkv For webcams I use a program called video(1) that comes with OpenBSD. But it isn't available for Linux; I'm not sure what you would use there. https://man.openbsd.org/video.1 -- Anthony J. Bentley
Thanks for all the response, I found a "straight forward" web install instruction for ffmpeg using Debian 10. i wish to use the program for recording zoom events as a guest, does anyone rebut?, Thanks On 9/18/20 7:35 PM, Anthony J. Bentley wrote:

A & NMGLugers, I found that site correct and clear. A - you already are sudo privileged. I think you and I walked you through a sudo update. Best to get your desired ffmpeg from Debian to start with. If it is not new enough you can try the external repository later. Give it a try. You can call me later. I'm going out for a walk just now. Thank you, Ted P On Sun, Sep 20, 2020, 9:32 AM a <a@kaluta.us> wrote:
