问题:

What's a good program to record videos or screencasts being played on screen?

回答1:

I've had success with Camtasia / CamStudio. Check out http://showmedo.com for tutorials. It's a little recursive though - it would be better to capture it from source.

回答2:

On Windows, you have CamTasia (commercial), CamStudio (GPL), FRAPS (commercial with free trial).

FRAPS will definitely do your job, it was designed to capture videos of 3D games. CamTasia might, it has a low-level custom codec (TechSmith Capture Codec). CamStudio probably won't, at least not smoothly. CamStudio has issues on Vista, I don't know about FRAPS, CamTasia is fine on Vista.

On the Mac try ScreenFlow, their example video makes it clear it can capture live video streams.

On Linux you'll be in a bit of trouble. If you recompile ffmpeg you might get it recording video. I think recordmydesktop won't do the job.

If you're using Vista the latest version of Fraps might also do what you need. I haven't tried it for that, though, just games

DemoCreator could be an good option. It is easy to use, and there are powerful editing features with it.
