Title: Lights, music, camera! Post by: folderol on July 28, 2014, 07:26:46 PM For some time now I've wanted to find a way to really promote Yoshimi.
While quite a few people have have produced youtube vids of both Yoshi and Zyn, these (while having commendabe enthusiasm) have defintely lacked polish. Usually they are cam-corder recordings. What I want to do is directly record the desktop, live, while playing one of my most complex productions providing the audio and video together, and opening closing various windows - so no question of authenticity - then add some captions in the form of bubbles. Ideally, for the last part I would like to have an overlay of scrolling acknowledgements. It seems Oren has provided the answer to the last part of this, but I'm still searching for a reliable desktop recorder that can handle both the video and audio, without taking up so much processor time that there is insufficient bandwidth for Rosegarden and Yoshimi. ... as if I don't have enough to think about already ::) Title: Re: Lights, music, camera!

http://www.maartenbaert.be/simplescreenrecorder/ Seems to be the most recommended software. Regarding processor capacity to manage Yoshi, Zyn, and SimpleScreenRecorder simultaneously: this dilemma may help you justify that shiny new 8-core computer displayed in the shop window! ;) Title: Re: Lights, music, camera! Post by: folderol on July 29, 2014, 06:17:55 PM Hi Oren,
I did try SSR but it isn't available in the debian repositories, and trying to compile it it failed with a confusing missing library error - the library is there, and used by other programs! Nope not going 8 core, I only comparatively recently went quad core :P Title: Re: Lights, music, camera! Post by: Oren on July 29, 2014, 07:13:17 PM Yup - 2 cores are still doing it for me, but a new build is in the works to accommodate digital video.
