I wrote a post a little while back explaining how to use the built-in screencast tool on Fedora 20.

I’ve just noticed that the latest Fedora release (21) limits the screencast length to 30 seconds.

Nooo!

It’s okay. If you want to record for longer than 30 seconds, you can change the time using gsettings.

View the existing time with:

gsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys max-screencast-length

And set a new time (0 for unlimited) with:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys max-screencast-lenth
gsettings

Nice and easy 🙂

A little something I made

When I’m not writing about code, I design geeky mugs. If you’d like one for your desk, or know someone who would, take a look at my designs.
