thank you for your informative review! OBS is just an excellent solution for my task (video capture of a working area with overlaying of the pattern of aiming markup) and fine tuning of the webcam logitech brio.

Thanks for your considerate sharing. I used Kazam when I had a Linux, it works great and helps me solve lots of recording problems. Now I have both Windows and Mac, and I begin to use Joyoshare Screen Recorder. It is powerful yet easy to use. I could use it to record online movies and conferences in 720P and 1080P. I could also choose to record videos with system audio and/or microphone. Anyway, both these two tools deserve your trust I think.

Only a few months – but the PPA are not accepted as safe,
Cannot install using this info alone – other info is needed.
20.04 is failing when checking all the PPA during the “sudo apt-add-repository ppa:sylvain-pineau/kazam” step
Your PPA may be okay buy Ubuntu 20.04 is checking a whole bunch of PPA during the step above – and is failing

Sorry to be a PITA – but 20.04 (LTS release from Apr 23rd)

Thanks for taking the time for making this tutorial, really appreciated. I like Macdvd Free Screen Recorder, which could record webcam video,desktop video and upload the video to youtube freely. It could record the video as long as you wish. Not like the other screen recorder, which just let you record one minute or with large watermark on the video.

Very informative! Thanks for showing clearly how to record computer screen.I always create screencast with a web-based software calls Acethinker Online Screen Recorder, free and works fairly well. It’s a cross platform tool, share it here as an alternative to kazam.
