    Voice recorder

    Is there any voice recording program that would record directly into mp3 or any other more compressed format?

    Do i need antivirus/firewall in linux?

    Audacity records to vaw file i belive. You can then export to mp3. is there a setting maybe to record directly to mp3? is it even possible to encode directly to mp3?

    i am just checkign a screen recorded and while you can set that the end product is in mp4 file i wonder if it also creates it first in soem raw format and only exports it to other type when yone finishes recording (i am talking about opensource CamStudio).

    Is there an actual GUI program for it? I haven't heard of one. (Doesn't mean one doesn't exist, though) But if you are comfortable working in the terminal, you could write a shellscript that uses parec, and pipes it to ffmpeg.

    Record from the system's sound or the mic? (since you said voice) For system sound output try audio recorder. https://launchpad.net/~osmoma/+archive/audio-recorder

    if you try to record screen with voice over I find kazam to be the best tool. Works great in Unity, probably broken in gnome shell, not sure about kde.
