XVidCap Screen Capture Closes When I Hit Record

[Eviltechie]

I just installed XVidCap Screen Capture, but whenever I click record, it closes.

sudo apt-get install libavcodec-unstripped-51

and try again !

This worked for me.

Thanks anhvu2875, for posting.

I get package unknown on that one, but I have the same problem.

Hey thanks! Though, you can no longer do this through the terminal, you have to use Synaptic package manager.

I started Xvidcap in terminal as seen below, then i hit the record button to see what it was coming up with cause the program was disappearing on me. I did sudo just to see if it made a difference, i know you can run it without it but i just gave it a try.Any help on telling me whats wrong by looking at this read out would be very much appreciated.

**I tried doing the fix in the forum above by installing that lib file in synaptic but its still doing this**

Through a little more research i found another thread that had a fix it was this below
the person said it was an old linux c++ error and said "Some programs might try to free a space through delete that has already been unallocated. That command suppresses the error by switching off checks for this activity."

Thank you very much they worked for me.
