Will definitely try recordmydesktop. Though Kwin’s pretty nice and all like I have posted earlier

Resolution doesn’t matter much. Check out the videos in the Adobe Flash bug post (linked in this article too). They’re 1280×800 resolution videos running into a minute or more, and yet they’re only 3-4 MB in size! That’s possible only because of the Ogg Theora format – anything else such as FLV would have created huge files at that resolution.

I’ve tried Istanbul on Hardy Heron, and its brilliant. Only problem is that I had to set it to 640×480 resolution, as 1024×1028 would be HD stuff. But Istanbul – except for the “wacky name” is great!
Maybe not on 8.10. I’ve hardly used anything on it except, Brasero.
