Tibesti Screencaster is a program for Ubuntu that allows you to record your screen and your microphone and/or audio out sounds. It allows you to record to multiple output formats, such as WebM, Ogg Media, Flash and several types of Matroska based formats. In addition, Tibesti will log your screencasts to Zeitgeist in case you forget where you saved the file. If you need a simple program to record your screen, then Tibesti can be your program.
I used Istanbul Session Recorder as an inspiration, but no copy pasting, just similar underlying techniques. i.e. we both use Python, Gstreamer, Cairo, and PyGTK.
The suggested way to install the program is to use the ppa, which you can add by running
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ackondro/
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install tibesti

The current known deficiency is that Gnome Shell is not able to be recorded.
1.2.8 is being rolled out to the ppa's. This unifies the ARB and General branches as far as numbering goes.
New feature developnent is currently on hiatus until I can get the application through Ubuntu's AppReview Board. When that's done, Tibesti 1.3 will start development with the main goals being general code cleanup, full documentation, and multiple backends (planned are a recordMyDesktop for Gnome Shell recording, General (current) and some sort of glc based system for OpenGL applications.
