I was hoping to make a few nice videos of Ubuntu 9.10 (similar to what you're describing) only to find that the output videos of gtkRecordMyDesktop don't work correctly with PiTiVi or Openshot. It seems there may be a problem with libtheora in Lucid: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/recordmydesktop/+bug/578397 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=525155. Does anyone know if these bugs are fixed in Maverick and/or are there easy-to-use alternative gui-based screencast recorders somewhere that I don't know about? I would love to help create great videos of Ubuntu, but I wonder if the above video was created on Ubuntu using available apps. If not, it should be a goal to get Ubuntu to that place with apps that are readily available, work as they're supposed to, and are easy to use.
