Hi, this sound very strange for me can you say me your vlc version,
I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, 64 bit also

Can you try to run by command line in the source code tree

sh src/scripts/screencast.sh start test.ogv

and attach the log

If you have some skills you can try to customize the script

At the moment I want found a goos command line to record; seems that there are 
some
problem in the audio/video sync also; the next step will be use vlclib instead 
spawn the vlc process

Please contact the ardesia developer to help us to fix the recording issue

Thanks a lot

I did it (i forgot to mention that I'm using the deb version of Ardesia... I 
didn't compile the source) using the script in /usr/local/share/ardesia/script

here the command line:
sh /usr/local/share/ardesia/scripts/screencast.sh start test.ogv

the output is a video file containing the screencast of the desktop.
I tried also on a i386 system with the same problem... so i looked into 
screencast.sh and I tried to change:

RECORDER_PROGRAM=cvlc

into:

RECORDER_PROGRAM="cvlc"

and now it works correctly ;)

Thanks for you efforts and best regards ;-)
