# orginal one line code for fullscreen
ffmpeg -f alsa -ac 2 -i hw:0,0 -f x11grab -r 30 -s $(xwininfo -root | grep 'geometry' | awk '{print $2;}') -i :0.0 -acodec pcm_s16le -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 0 -threads 0 -y screencast_out.avi

# record single window, use mouse to click on the window to start recording
ffmpeg -f alsa -ac 2 -i hw:0,0 -f x11grab -r 30 -s $(xwininfo -frame | grep -oEe 'geometry [0-9]+x[0-9]+' | grep -oEe '[0-9]+x[0-9]+') -i :0.0+$(xwininfo -frame | grep -oEe 'Corners:\s+\+[0-9]+\+[0-9]+' | grep -oEe '[0-9]+\+[0-9]+' | sed -e 's/\+/,/' ) -acodec pcm_s16le -vcodec libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 0 -threads 0 -y screencast_out.avi

# -y = will overwrite output file

#Note: if u have problems with preset errors,
# run 'x264 -h' look for supported presets and replace it, like
# ultrafast, superfast, fast ...etc


#Note 2: If you like to scale down your videos at the same time when recording
# add in for example
# -vf "scale=1280:720"
# The reason this is useful is becuase I have a 16:10 resolution but youtube only supports 16:9
# So I can avoid the black bars on left/right side of the videos with this option

FFX_HW="hw:1,0" 	# alsa; run 'cat /proc/asound/pcm' to change to the correct numbers
FFX_PULSE="pulse" 	# pulseaudio; might have to install pavucontrol to change volume
FFX_FPS="30"		# frame per seconds
FFX_WIN_FULL=$(xwininfo -root | grep 'geometry' |awk '{print $2;}')	# record fullscreen
FFX_AUDIO="pcm_s16le"	# audio codec
