This software provides a screencasting library for recording screen activities to create videos or tutorials.
Castro is a Python library that offers automated screencast recording through a simple API. With Castro, screencast recording is effortless, and anyone can generate a quality video effortlessly. To get started with using Castro, users need to install and launch a VNC server. Installation is easy, and it involves running a command to launch the VNC server.
After installing and launching the VNC server, users can proceed to install Castro. The installation process is straightforward, and all that is required is running a command to install Castro. Once installed, users can proceed to test the application by running another command in the terminal.
The video generated by Castro is stored in the default_temp_dir, from where users can view the video. Users can view the video on most platforms, including Linux and OSX, by entering a command into the terminal. Castro is licensed under the GPLv2, and users can access the application source code via a Git repository on Github.
Castro is a minor improvement of pyvnc2swf, which enables users to use pyvnc2swf as a regular python library for screencast recording. With Castro, users can start and stop recording programmatically using a simple Python API. To stop recording, Castro uses a file-based IPC to communicate with pyvnc2swf. This improvement is significant as pyvnc2swf typically expects users to stop recording by typing "Control-C" manually, which is not consistent across all platforms.
Finally, Castro is an excellent tool for cross-platform video recording, and its biggest strength is its ability to record VNC video on any platform from any platform. If you need a simple way to automate screencast recording, Castro is an excellent solution to consider.
