Re: capturing X to video



Hello Martin

is it possible to capture all that's going on on my X server to video
somehow? I imagine it can't be hard thanks to X's modular
architecture. Does anyone have a pointer or so?

<no better ideas so far, so why not throw in this one...>
There are various programs that can capture the X desktop (screenshot). If you could use such a program in a script that makes a screenshot every second (or longer or shorter), you could assemble these images to a mpeg (or some other movie format, you might have followed the thread about this topic the last few days). Note: I have not taken screenshots before, so sory I can't tell you what screenshooter to use.
