In xvidcap (screencast capture on Linux), is there a shortcut to stop recording?
It is not convenient to have to switch to xvidcap's window and click on "Stop", as it is recorded too.
You can use methods exported via DBUS to control Xvidcap:
$ qdbus net.jarre_de_the.Xvidcap /net/jarre_de_the/Xvidcap net.jarre_de_the.Xvidcap.Start
and
$ qdbus net.jarre_de_the.Xvidcap /net/jarre_de_the/Xvidcap net.jarre_de_the.Xvidcap.Stop
There are some more, but these are what you need.
All you have to do is bind them to a global shortcut. In KDE you can use inbuilt KHotKeys for this.
