Vokoscreen: Yet Another Screencasting Tool for Linux

Hello everybody, today I'd like to write a post about a brand new screencasting software called Vokoscreen. Vokoscreen can be used to create how to videos to improve understanding of visitors. As we all know, there are many Linux tutorial videos published on YouTube, so if you want to create such videos, you might want to give Vokoscreen a try, although there are some Linux software who can do that for you like Kazam and Record-My-Desktop.

• Zoom function
• Support for avi and mkv format.
• MPEG4 and H.264 compression
• Set the frame rate
• Images can be viewed immediately.
• Indicator application support, so it can be controlled from application icon.
• Sound: alsa and pulse. Devices are automatically detected
• Sample rate of the microphone is automatically detected
