[Bug 1388327] Re: Screencasting on desktop can not capture many Unity Elements like dash & default compiz effects (scale) on Vivid

 

No. My video driver is Intel GME965. I never required a separate video driver installed.
Here is the output `lshw -c video`.
  *-display:0             
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: Mobile GME965/GLE960 Integrated Graphics Controller
       vendor: Intel Corporation
       physical id: 2
       bus info: pci@0000:00:02.0
       version: 0c
       width: 64 bits
       clock: 33MHz
       capabilities: vga_controller bus_master cap_list rom
       configuration: driver=i915 latency=0
       resources: irq:45 memory:e8400000-e84fffff memory:d0000000-dfffffff iopor

** Description changed:

  Desktop Recording tool used: gtk-recordmydesktop, kazaam
  Ubuntu releases used for testing: Vivid & Utopic
  
  Problem:
  
  1. Unity elements are not visible in the video like dash & sometime right
  click menu.
  
  2. Sometime the windows (any) are not visible & appears transparent.
  
  3. It failed to capture any default compiz effect like scale (Super+w)
  
  4. Sometime after completing recording it saves the previously recorded
  video! (until I run "compiz --replace").
  
- 
  For example, in this video (http://youtu.be/JQT6LTUXIe8), I opened dash,
  searched for terminal & opened it. But in the video nothing is visible.
  
  However, recording works very well in *NON-Compiz* session, i.e.
  gnome-flashback (metacity).
