Lets enjoy capturing your screen

Where is the screenshot? :O
And I was planning to write a tutorial about XVidCap in ubuntu :p

But in most cases, gtk-recordmydesktop is a better choice.

I thought that it is to easy to install and use. So, I didn't find anything to take a snap.
However, it would be better if I gave some snaps. But still I am confused, in which step I should take a snap

gtk-recordmydesktop may be a better choice but I found XVidCap easier and its an alternative video capturing software

when you posted a snap about terminator, did you do that because it was hard to use?
You give screen shots to show people how the software looks like.

Thats right!
Ok I will add some snaps here

yeah, I am right. But I do not get anything for providing constructive feedback
You are welcome.

I have added a video in my title post using flash option and gave the link of youtube there. But why its not visible?
Can you see that?

No.
and you need to use the video tag, not the flash tag when you are sharing a video.
You need to use the full editor to see the buttons though.

Thanks.

I have edited and now the video is visible

You are welcome.

edit:
That video hardly helps.
It shows what you are doing on screen. Not how you started taking video/use the software.

I know. But I didn't find the idea to capture a video on how to start taking a video

Good idea!
I will try to give a video on "how to start taking a video" replacing the first one

Can't get your point

Are you talking about adding the new video on "how to start taking a video" ?
