Contains a patched VNC viewer that allows record (-record), playback (-play), and video export (-movie) of VNC sessions. The license is GPL (LICENCE.TXT). > VNC server - you need to have a VNC server on this or other machine to be able to use vncrec. GPL Examples: TightVNC http://www.tightvnc.com/ RealVNC http://realvnc.com/ x11vnc http://freshmeat.net/projects/x11vnc/ OSXvnc http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=64523&filename=VineServer2.1.dmg To build vncrec, do: % xmkmf % make World Set up the VNC server so you can view with VNC viewer. Then you can record a VNC session "video": % vncrec -record sample.vncrec Later, you can play it back by: % vncrec -play sample.vncrec Encode the session quickly into a 4:2:0 Y'CbCr YUV4MPEG2 video stream to stdout (this format can be played directly by mplayer, encoded into lots of formats using transcode, or encoded into Ogg Theora using the example encoder in libtheora): % vncrec -movie sample.vncrec The sample rate of the movie is 10 by default or overriden by VNCREC_MOVIE_FRAMERATE environment variable, or 10 if not specified. Some formats (MPEG) don't have 10 so you must supply some more common number (24, 25,...). > No sound: remove the $1.wav mention from the following scripts > Sound: download Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/ plug the microphone in at the same time you start vncrec (synchronizing click), then cut the track off on the click, export into *.wav > Encoding into Theora: download libtheora http://www.theora.org/ Example encode line for Theora: vncrec -movie $1.vnc | \ /home/user/libtheora-1.0alpha7/examples/encoder_example \ -o $1.ogg $1.wav - > Encoding into MPEG4 ASP ("DivX"), Real Video, WMV: download transcode http://www.transcoding.org/cgi-bin/transcode?Download Example encode script for MPEG4 ASP, MSMPEG4, MSMPEG4v2, MPEG4, Real Video 10, WMV 7, WMV8: pipe=$1.y4m rm -f $pipe /home/clock/vncrec-0.2/vncrec/vncrec -movie $1.vnc > $pipe transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y xvid -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o $1_mpeg4_asp.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F msmpeg4 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o \ $1_msmpeg4.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F msmpeg4v2 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o \ $1_msmpeg4v2.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F mpeg4 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o $1_mpeg4.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F rv10 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o $1_rv10.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F wmv1 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o $1_wmv7.avi transcode -x yuv4mpeg -y ffmpeg -F wmv2 -i $pipe -p $1.wav -o $1_wmv8.avi rm $pipe -- Yoshiki Hayashi -- Karel Kulhavy (replaced the original XPM output with yuv4mpeg2) ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ================ This distribution contains public domain DES software by Richard Outerbridge.
