Screen cast on linux with ffmpeg

Few days ago I was happy to found the link with 10 useful Linux commands at http://www.catonmat.net/blog/top-ten-one-liners-from-commandlinefu-explained/.

The last one command was the most interesting for me, as it helps to make screen casts quickly and easy with only one command:

ffmpeg -f x11grab -s wxga -r 25 -i :0.0 -sameq ~/out.mpg


Moreover ffmpeg helps to setup video quality, convert it to FLV format, so you can publish video online with a few clicks!
