Hi I'm trying to capture a screencast of a jack2 client (renoise), but it seems recordmydesktop and jack2 doesn't work well together. Anything I should do different? Any alternative to recordmydesktop that I should try instead?
For me screen-capturing with jack seems terribly broken at the moment... jack capture with (gtk)-recordmydesktop is broken since at least 1 year, and seems related to the funky width and height values reported when you use it with jack.
I had an ffmpeg (and newer avconv) script which worked very well until a few months ago which is now also broken on my system (debian wheezy):
ffmpeg -f jack -ac 2 -i ffmpeg -f x11grab -r 30 -s 1280x800 -i :0.0 -acodec pcm_s16le -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -threads 0 output.avi
Adapded from some blog online I can't recall. Actually it seems the X11 grabbing part is broken there, as recording a wav file through jack works.
I had tried gstreamer, but couldn't really get it to work (audio was stuttery).
