Screen Capture with FFmpeg
I generally run into audio sync issues with my video capture in Linux. However today I had a bit of a breakthrough after a little research on YouTube.
I used both ffmpeg and mplayer via the following terminal commands
ffmpeg -f pulse -ac 2 -i default -f x11grab -s $(xwininfo -root | grep ‘geometry’ | awk ‘{print $2;}’) -s 1366x768 -i :0.0 -threads 0 output.mkv
and in another tab
mplayer -tv driver=v4l2:width=240:height=120: -vo xv tv:// -geometry “99%:95%” -ontop
My commands above may not work with your system or distribution but I thought I’d share just in case.
For reference I’m using a System76 Lemur Ultra and Manjaro Linux

His advice didn’t quite work for my system but it did put me in the right direction.

A great watch if you want to hear a debate on the Amazon Unity search controversy.

System76 Bonobo Extreme looks amazing
Lets see i7 processors, massive storage options with 2 bays, backlit keyboard. Only thing it’s missing is an nVidia “fuck you” sticker.
But seriously that thing looks amazing.
