  • Capture screen and mic input using FFmpeg and ALSA

    Yet another x11grab using ffmpeg. I also added mic input to the capturing video stream using alsa. Yet I need to find out how to capture audio which is currently playing. Show Sample Output

  • Capture screen and mic input using FFmpeg and ALSA

    Now we can capture only a specific window (we have to chose by clicking on it) ffmpeg complains about "Frame size must be a multiple of 2" so we calculate the upper even number with (g)awk trickery. We remove the grep, we are already using (g)awk here ....why losing time with grep !!! ;) Show Sample Output

    a=$(xwininfo |gawk 'BEGIN {FS="[x+ \t]*"} /-geometry/ {print int(($3+1)/2)*2"x"int(($4+1)/2)*2"+"$5"+"$6}') ; echo ${a} ; ffmpeg -f x11grab -s ${a} -r 10 -i :0.0 -sameq -f mp4 -s wvga -y /tmp/out.mpg
