I am not sure what you meant by "downloaded."

If you download tarball you must make sure it's not the tag (they are for releases, the patched x11grab has been in release yet) but the latest tree.

If you clone the git repo, it is there, but you need to turn it ow at configuring.

For example:

./configure --enable-gpl --enable-x11grabYour distro package has taken care of that part for you, but if you want to compile from source, you need to turn it on on your own.Moreover, some video/audio formats are not enabled by default. Run ./configure --help for more detail.

Hey dude i have downloaded the ffmpeg from the git source - but you mentioned you forked this part off - how can I get your forked version and install it, so I can use this very useful feature?

yep, I understand now. I am using the SVN outdated repo, cause it's working well with 8.04

Thanks for introducing me key-mon looks nice, but yea, having builtin on ffmpeg. I hope you find this enjoyable to work on. :-)

I should be more clear, it's in git tree, but not yet released as a new version.

That's good idea, but may I introduce you key-mon,
it has similar feature.

I think this is still worth to be added into x11grab. I might try to add this. (Just "might" ;)

I was thinking, drawing a semi-transparent circle on a click of the mouse, would give this all the features a screencast recorder needs :-)

Would be reading your code to see if I can do it, could it be a nice weekend project :-)

Thanks for the patch.

I was cropping my videos in blender after doing the screencast, this is so much better. It's working really well.

Hope this feature is merged into the ffmpeg trunk branch, this deserves it.
