I am looking for a screen recorder for Ubuntu 12.04,any recorder besides:

  • Ezvid
  • Kazam Screencaster
  • RecordMyDesktop
  • Ice Cream Screen Recorder
  • SimpleScreenRecorder
  • vokoscreen
  • Webcam Studio
  • XSplit Gamecaster
  • ffmpeg

About ffmpeg,I'm not really sure how to install it. I am going to be recording Minecraft, so it should be capable of recording fluently without high resource usage.

Use KAZAM SCREENCASTER

Kazam is a GStreamer-based screen recording and screenshot tool for Linux. The application supports recording the entire screen (with multi-monitor support), a window or an area and features:

  • customizable framerate;
  • option to show/hide the mouse when recording;
  • record sound from speakers and/or microphone;
  • keyboard shortcuts;
  • configurable delay before capturing;
  • automatic file saving;
  • supports mp4 (H264), webm (VP8) and avi (RAW, HUFFYUV and lossless JPEG) video formats.

To Install

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kazam-team/stable-series
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install kazam
  • I already have it somehow it doesnt works on my computer because i got it free from school so it cant do a lot of stuff thanks anyways :) – Emily Shan Oct 12 '15 at 14:47

Although its main use is for broadcasting OBS is still a very solid screen recorder (It is based on ffmpeg).

First install ffmpeg with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kirillshkrogalev/ffmpeg-next
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ffmpeg

And OBS with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:obsproject/obs-studio
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install obs-studio

It basically acts as a front-end to ffmpeg but has some quite advanced features that lets you organised video and audio inputs and such.
