Simple Screen Recorder Updated, Recording & Live Streaming Made Easy On Linux
16 July 2014 at 7:22 pm UTC

Quoting: GuestYes, I tried it. I assume it’s recording some input, not the output.

Edit: I don’t blame the author because ALSA configuration is far from simple. I managed to capture audio of a game once by creating a “loop” device and telling the (SDL) game to use that device, but then you don’t get to ear the audio that’s being recorded. And IIRC I had to use two different tools to record the video and the audio.

thatswhy you dont use ALSA.
its just too complicated to set stuff up as a normal person who wants simple things done and different volume sliders for different apps.. configuring dmix is pretty hardcore if you need something like that.

im not saying ALSA is bad.

i myself use pulseaudio for regular desktop use (no issues with slightly higher latency for me)..
When i create music, im using JACK anyway.

also i thought SSR 0.3 has been out quite some time...

but i checked..i had git version installed :)
