He goes into much more detail if what I used doesn't work for your system

I used the following command in the terminal for ffmpeg

ffmpeg -f pulse -ac 2 -i default -f x11grab -s $(xwininfo -root | grep 'geometry' | awk '{print $2;}') -s 1366x768 -i :0.0 -threads 0 output.mkv

I used the following command in the terminal for mplayer

mplayer -tv driver=v4l2:width=240:height=120: -vo xv tv:// -geometry "99%:95%" -ontop
