Greetigns ladies and gentlemen:

I've used recordmydesktop to make a tutorial; it works well but it encodes in ogv. It shouldn't be a problem but kdenlive and openshot video editors don't work well with ogv and the Pitivi version in Trisquel is extremely unstable and it is imposible to work with it.

Suggestions please.

If you're using Gnome Shell then it has a recorder built in.
Press Ctrl, Alt, Shift and R to start and stop.
The file is saved as webm in the Videos folder.

Also I have found OpenShot to be much better than Pitivi.

Oops just read that you tried OpenShot, but I had success with it even with the .MOV files that my camera takes.

I will try kazam. It seems to be able to record on avi and I think it is compatible with every video editor.

SimpleScreenRecorder. Ever since that came out, I haven't used anything else. You can find it here:

Thank you very much onpon4. I've been watching your videos and I was curious about what did you use to make them because of their quality. And that solves another issue: record internal sound.

I now have everything set. Thank you everyone.

Greetings a_slacker_here, I have also struggled with Pitivi. I recently installed Belenos with a 4GB swap partition, and the performance improved considerably. Keep in mind that video-editing is one of the most resource intensive jobs a desktop PC is called on to do, and every little thing that improves the stability of your system, or frees up resources (esp. RAM) will likely help.

Greetings strypey.

Are you saying that all my crashes are possibly fault of the lack of ram? That is a possibility, I've should have enabled the swap monitor to see if that is true.

Thank you very much, I will have that in consideration the next time I edit a video because I like pitivi but no its crashes.

Have you tried OpenShot or Kdenlive? Blender can do video editing too, even though it has a steep learning curve.

You haven't read the beginning of the post, do you?
Well, perhaps my English is rusty enough to be difficult to understand (It wouldn't be the first time).

Yes, I used Kdenlive for my first published video and it was very good, but Vokoscreen had problems with the amount of FPS and I had to switch to another video recorder: RecordMyDesktop. Unfortunately, that piece of software only records in ogv and Kdenlive and Openshot do not work well in editing videos with that format (at least, the versions included in Trisquel's repos do not).

I have to thank you because I didn't considered Blender to do my video. I don't know if it can work with ogv though but I will record on avi from now on.
