@lockergnome I've only seen screencasts on Windows and OS X, are you accepting Linux screencasts?

[lockergnome]

@Awesomeman552 If someone records a high-quality screencast about Linux - something others will want to learn/watch - then it would absolutely go on the channel.

WMV's are tiny but have terrible quality

[lockergnome]

@8thWeekday Tiny? Not so. One screencaster sent a 4 min video in WMV format the other day. It was 241MB. :)

I thought the title was "How to Record a Screencast" not "Requirements and How-To Submit a Screencast to Lockergnome"

Bleh.

So there are no duplicate videos on YouTube...? :O

@WindowsGuru84 Cool thanks, the problem I have is, I use camtasia as well, but when I record my screen, it always plays back with such a terrible frame rate and it only exports as an avi (no other options) - and it also doesn't look clear, it looks compressed. I have toggled with settings, and even when i record at 25fps it seems to play back at like 5fps or something equivalently terrible lol.. help me please?? =\

4shared.com is the best file host site for me - i use it all the time. it's not the most known website but i find the speeds and no ads great!

[dekaband]

@WindowsGuru84 no problem, keep up the good work.

[WindowsGuru84]

[dekaband]

[WindowsGuru84]

@dekaband YOUR desktop is over 720p assuming you're using a decent card and monitor. Also, this video is 720p and looks great. How can you not tell that this is recorded on Windows?? I expected better from a linux user...

[MoviesandTVShows2010]

What do you mean YouTube doesn't allow duplicate uploads? There are plenty.

[iLikeYourFayse]

Filemail.com doesn't exist.

[Zackary210]

[TheMizDog]

What program do you use to screen cast?... I was hoping you would answer that in the video...

[laithsrc]

@bleachzeldakid yes .... you can choose the format you want

[renegade8164]

The most screencasts made by Windows and Linux users just using software that suck ass in framerate.... Compare to all mac users, they have awesome screencasts software with high freamerate

[bleachzeldakid]
