Recording a video of PlaneShift

[potatoehead64]

Does anyone know of a good open source video package I could get that will record game play of PlaneShift?

I'm running the game on Ubuntu Gutsy 7.10.

I want to record some play to upload to YouTube.

Thanks.

Nothing comes to mind... i'm sure if you get creative you can find a way.

xvidcap is one program you can use, but you can also use VLC media player to capture\save the screen.

could try graps a dirty fraps alt for linux  from here http://blog.smr.co.in/category/linux/

You can compile psclient yourself and use Crystal Space's movierecorder plugin.  In my opinion this is most ideal.

xvidcap achieves framerates <10 here for me (for 1440x900-fullscreen capturing with only mouse-cursor movement), furthermore it seems capable only to capture windowed applications, capturing fullscreen applications resulted in a black screen for me.

i tried xvidcap 1.1.7~rc1-0.0 (debian unstable/sid), used the gui and with default settings (recording in mpg4-format, though set the wished framerate to 30fps). also, i find the handling of that app pretty unhandy. i would prefer having it sent into the sys-tray and started/stopped by hotkeys.

perhaps i missed some way to make it work the way i wish? lol

EDIT:
No way xvidcap will work. Tried to capture from windowed PS, which only resulted in a long still image.
