When I was in Brazil last, there was some talk about making outreach videos; perhaps this is a good option for an open source tool!

Found a nice screencasting application for ubuntu - eidete
Though the gnome 3 has its inbuilt screen recording app using crtl+alt+shift+r it can record only video, not the audio.
I was looking for a decent screenrecorder with voice.
gtk-recordmydesktop is good. But, we have to configure the parameters to get video without any scattering effects.
Tried eidete. It is so good. Video is stored as webm format. video/audio quality is fine.
Check more about it here: https://launchpad.net/eidete http://www.ubuntubuzz.com/2012/01/record-your-screen-activity-with-eidete.ht...
Recorded a sample screencast - "intro to gnome 3" in Tamil. check it here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eg5h1-YgoJI
Now, you can create screencasts easily with Eidete.
