Works just fine. Does audio - but I suspect just Desktop sounds (teeraw
might work).  If I remember correctly you need to set the name of the

Skreener - takes a series of screen scrapes for low-resource screen
recordings. Output is images. Doesn't do simultaneous audio(, but
Audacity does).


Kind regards
