Video, when done properly, can explain a lot more than text. And video can overcome some of the language barriers by SHOWING people what to do and their expected outcomes.

==Possible errors you may encounter==

<code>[root@localhost liveuser]# gtk-recordMyDesktop

/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/recordMyDesktop/rmdMonitor.py:10: DeprecationWarning: The popen2 module is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.

  import popen2

/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/recordMyDesktop/rmdSimple.py:223: DeprecationWarning: os.popen3 is deprecated.  Use the subprocess module.

 +
The program 'gtk-recordMyDesktop' received an X Window System error.
 +
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
 +
The error was 'BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)'.
 +
  (Details: serial 3927 error_code 11 request_code 53 minor_code 0)
 +
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
 +
  that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
 +
  To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
 +
  option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
 +
  backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

* No known workaround for this yet.
