recordMyDesktop is a free and open source desktop screencasting software application written for Linux.

The program is separated into two parts; a command line tool called recordmydesktop, licensed under GPL-2.0-or-later, that performs the tasks of capturing and encoding, and front-ends that exposes the program functionality graphically.

recordMyDesktop also offers the ability to record audio through ALSA, OSS or the JACK audio server.

RecordMyDesktop only outputs to Ogg using Theora for video and Vorbis for audio.
