For screen capture use Camtasia it’s the best commercial ap, but for FOSS Use CamStudio http://www.camstudio.org.

i took a Video out from the PC (VGA S-Video) and use my DVR to recode it, then transfer the mpeg2 file to Vista and use the Windows Movie Maker to add/edit the file and uploaded the final one to youtube.

did try to find few screen capture programs, some we have to pay, some had virus (spyware) didn’t find any thing good.”

It’s very unpleasant to here these kind of words from this blogger “didn’t find any thing good” while there are best open source software like CamStudio. I’m pure linux guy and using
gtk-recordmydesktop in ubuntu jaunty 64x in my notebook.

Don’t miss lead viewers..

For Debian 5.0 (Lenny) and Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid) now you don’t have to modify ‘sources.list’ since sinhala support is finally merged in to Universe repository.

But I think ‘sinhala-gnu-linux’ meta package is not there so you have to just type

“apt-get install ttf-sinhala-lklug scim scim-gtk2-immodule im-switch scim-m17n m17n-db m17n-contrib language-pack-si-base”
