I can appreciate the honesty of that video.

Haha. Maybe related: https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/4378

I wonder if anyone has thought of including screencasting in bug reporting for bugs in guis?

We used to use LICEcap at my old work for that.

For anyone wondering how to do this on linux, I use recordmydesktop and ffmpeg to make small webms (~2mb). Highly recommend it.

    `recordmydesktop --windowid $(xwininfo)`

 and click the window you want to record. 

    `ffmpeg -i out.ogv -o final.webm` 
and you're done! recordmydesktop is available in most distros afaik.

Wonderful, you just make aware of the software that do exactly what I need today :-)
