Can anyone please suggest any working screen recording software that works well? I tried XvidCap and Istanbul both crash.
I am using ubuntu 8.04 and the xvidcap I got from the repositories crashes for me as well. Downloading and installing the .deb from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=81535 worked for me.
Another potential issue causing the crash could be you are trying to export to a video format that your installed version of ffmpeg doesn't properly support - try exporting to .ogg - if that works, then try installing the ffmpeg package from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu and exporting to proprietary video formats should work.
Another software I use to screen capture that works well is Gtk-recordmydesktop , available on ubuntu repositories .
