Hi!

First of all, the idea is presented in the following youtube video, in the comments section:

So first of all you need a linux distribution to do this, as I'm not aware of such software that records an X-server on windows . And then a microphone is useful too (the youtube video doesn't have any audio, although recordmydesktop supports it). But the most important thing is to have some kind of X-server (I used xephyr in this), an Internet Tablet and a network connection.

So in steps:

1. Install Xephyr and recordmydesktop (ubuntu gutsy has both as packages, Xephyr's package is xserver-xephyr)

2. Start up Xephyr:
The following example is also available from maemo.org

3. Start up an application you want to record in your Internet Tablet/SDK emulator:
Replace themachineip with the IP-address of the computer that has Xephyr running. Also make sure that you execute the code in a terminal, otherwise this won't work.

4. Then start up the recordmydesktop with:
5. Start demoing it and then press CTRL+C to terminate recordmydesktop .

6. Stop the app running in Xephyr via pkill or anything else via terminal in the Internet Tablet ( there will be no window manager, thus no closing X in the upper right corner).

7. Close the Xephyr window.

8. Convert the myvideo.ogg with ffmpeg if you want to display your video on youtube (or any other video hosting service):
9. Upload your video to youtube or something else.

Thats it for my part of the tutorial, feel free to ask any questions.
