Hey!

I *would* use SimpleScreenRecorder as it works perfectly. However, I cant record my microphone and speakers at the same time using it. (I use a USB headset) Thanks!

I recommend you simply record your own voice using another sound recorder like Audacity and then sync the game audio and your voice afterwards in a video editor.

Here's a video showing how I record gaming videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSg8IMkrLPo

Alternatively you could use OBS as your recording software, but it's a bit alpha at the moment, so you can expect some crashes etc.

I'm thinking of waiting with OBS until it gets a stable Debian repository :)

Thanks! I'll report back later. I was thinking of this too actually, but Audacity didn't seem to recognize my shortcut key when not focusing on the window.

if you know how to use JACK server through pulseaudio you can capture both at the same time as well :)

I had some trouble using it, it just stopped all other input and as far as I saw only had the option to choose one audio unit. Can you give some instructions please?

I'm looking for a Linux alternative for FRAPS simply for seeing a games FPS. Any suggestions ? Not trying to hijack the thread.
