Green-recorder screencast utility in Python
Posted: Thu 03 May 2018, 04:35
Tried green-recorder in XenialDog64. Worked fine - requires python2.x. I'm biased so prefer weX over all others since includes webcam support and more versatile overall, and just tiny since bash/gtkdialog/ffmpeg only. Still, each to their own.

To install green-recorder on XenialDog just need to add the repository and install, here as root user, with:
I'm not sure of overall install size, a few MBytes on my system - certainly much less than Qt-using SSR, but weX dotpet is only 35kBytes (and size used to be an important quality in Pups).
If anyone wants green-recorder in Puppy someone would maybe have to make a dotpet, (or maybe the ppa can be added to PetGetManager Ubuntu-based repositories or with sc0ttman's package manager?) or just manually add the required python files.
Green-recorder does have an interesting/simple way of selecting screen capture area: it just draws a dummy window, which you can resize over the area you are interested in - but that does hide the background whilst doing it - wex scrox method shows what you are capturing...
