Screencam that records sound (2014)

Question

It's 2014.

What's the best tool for recording a session on my computer that includes internal audio?

Answer 1

Try vokoscreen:

1. Install it

   sudo apt-get install vokoscreen
   

2. Check Settings

   

3. Start

Answer 2

I personally use this command in terminal

   avconv -f   pulse -i default -f x11grab -r 15 -s $(xdpyinfo  | grep dimensions | awk -F ' ' ' { print $2 } ' ) -i :0.0+0,0 -acodec libmp3lame -vcodec libx264  $(date +"%m%d%Y_%H%M%S_$HOSTNAME")_screencast.mp4

If you want a sophisticated one try this http://www.maartenbaert.be/simplescreenrecorder/

It's open source and looks nice.

EDIT:

For inline audio try this

pavucontrol

then switch to output devices then click on green check mark with tooltip Set as fallback

Answer 3

Try Kazam:

I've never used it thoroughly (it didn't work on my computer, but that's probably because I have a special audio setup), but it looks like if you check the "Sound from Speakers" option, it will record what you're looking for.
