-===== Optional Xephyr script  =====
+Nice Nice Record. I really loved your rcored. Youtube can be a fantastic asset for you. If you need any help getting your rcored exposed, check out this site called tubeviews [dot net] It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 Channels up with videos at top in position and this is my forth channel i'm vacant to working on.Be Blessed!!!
-Set up a Xephyr nested X server with a resolution of 1280x720 as this resolution yields the best result when uploading the final video to a webservice like YouTube. I use a little script for this:
-<code>#!/bin/bash
-# Set up nested X server
-Xephyr -keybd ephyr,,,xkbmodel=evdev -br -reset -host-cursor -screen 1280x720x24 -dpi 96 :2 &
-sleep 3
-export DISPLAY=:2.0
-/etc/X11/Xsession &</code>
-As you can see I set up a session by calling /etc/X11/Xsession. In Ubuntu >= 9.10 this starts up a new fresh Gnome session and because I use IceWM for my main session in which I run Xephyr this works very well. If you're using Gnome as your DE using /etc/X11/Xsession won't work properly so in that case you will have to resort to a different start-up option. This also holds for distributions that don't use /etc/X11/Xsession.
-TODO:other distros
-After you ran this Xephyr script, you should run the above screencast script, taking care of making the following changes to it:
- * add the line "export DISPLAY=:2.0" after the TIME line
- * change -i 0:0 ffmpeg option to -i :2
- * add the -display 0:0 option to the xterm line (so it won't appear in your screencast)
-Within the Xephyr session I also use a [[http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Basic?content=126559|plain cursor theme without drop shadow]] because ffmpeg doesn't capture the drop shadow properly. As of [[http://git.ffmpeg.org/?p=ffmpeg;a=commit;h=191a50db964768ca4418bdf00b26159a77879b9c|FFmpeg revision 25690]] this has been fixed.
