Hi,

I have an problem while using gtk-recordMyDesktop Version: 0.3.8-3 with
my desktop environment, Xfce 4.6.1. Both these applications are from an
up-to-date Sid laptop.

What happens is when I go to record a session; the recordMyDesktop
application disappears as it's supposed to so the screen isn't
cluttered; but there isn't any icon showing the stop button when in
record mode. From what I've read on various searches for this problem
it seems that in other desktop environments the record button/stop button
appears in the menu bar when one is recording, so when finished one
can stop the recording and have the video saved.

That's my problem. So I don't know if the bug resides with
gtk-recordMyDesktop or Xfce. I trust this all makes sense ...

Can anyone confirm if this behaviour is shown while running Gnome in
Sid with the recordMyDesktop version from Sid?

Or else advise me as to whether I should file a bug and against which
application?

Thanks.

Mmmm... the "record/stop" icon should fall under "notification area",
inside panel.

Can you add a "notification area" in XFCE? :-?

Hi,
I was just try on my Sid-KDE and it works.
When you start it from shell do you get some errors?

Hi, Yup I added a second one; just in case the first one not working
was an anomaly and it still doesn't show up in what Xfce calls a tray.

I used the 'recordMyDesktop' back end from my term and it ran
successfully and converted the video when finished. The picture was
screwed up; but that's a different problem. So it appears to be a
problem only with the gtk front end, and possibly only with Xfce ...
Not sure yet.

Goran, when I run the front end from a shell, yes I get a bunch of
warnings. The backend runs without any errors before launching.

I ran the gtk front end just now from my term and get warnings on ...
guess what? The friggin widget set. Deprecated warnings such as;

I thought I was already using the latest widget gtk tool kit.

Any ideas?
