Effortless OpenBSD Audio and Desktop Screen Recording Guide

  Fork of recordMyDesktop X Window System desktop recording abandonware, much bug fixing and general cleanups/rewriting has been done. (by recordmydesktop)

  

recordMyDesktop[0] should work on any *NIX w/OSS+X, and it defaults to a cached mode with deferred encoding so there's less load on the system during* the recording.

In my experience using Linux+XOrg+ALSA on an X220 ThinkPad it works pretty well, at least in its current form.

Disclaimer: I'm the maintainer of the linked fork, prior to this fork it was ~useless.

  ffmpeg wrapper to facilitate screencasting/recording on OpenBSD

There is also the very useful project fauxstream which encapsulates this knowledge.

I was testing a stream over ipfs proof of concept. and the trickiest thing for me was figuring out what ffmpeg arcana was needed to grab the desktop and audio. And fauxstream proved very valuable in providing a known working config.
