I am just a bug triager, and I don't really use ffmpeg (I did some long time ago to convert, but really not much). I have tried: ffmpeg -f x11grab -i :0.0 /tmp/out.mpg but I get: Unknown input or output format: x11grab
But I have found this link: http://www.pittle.org/weblog/ffmpeg-has-x11grab-x11-grab-built-in_77.html where it says that: I figured out sometime now that, ffmpeg has included x11grab (x11-grab) patch, so there’s no need to the Screencasting solution that we came with anymore. And the patch is there: http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg-export-snapshot.tar.bz2 Still trying to figure out why it is an external patch, from where it came, etc. -- ffmpeg is not recording environment X in Ubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/59849 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
