Re: [Screenkast-devel] capture size and categories

Hi Jason,

I'm going to disappoint you; no scaling features yet...
However, it's in the todo-pipeline, together with some basic editing features 
(delete pieces, copy/paste functionality). The only problem is: because I ran 
out of beer-money to work on this project, I had to take a full-time day job 
to pay my rent, so expect this to happen in weeks (perhaps month(s)), not 
days.
To scale the recording (live), I use x11vnc with the -scale flag (don't have 
the exact command here at hand, but I'm sure it's an easy google-job) to 
dynamically downscale the 1024x768 to 800x600. Sadly enough, this means the 
tutorial needs to be re-built, I'm sorry.

Regarding the GIS-section; I'll create one as soon as I get home.

Thanks for the compliments!

Bram
