RecordItNow is an Linux application similar to RecordMyDesktop, but for KDE, designed for recording your desktop. It has more features than qt-recordmydesktop, thus if you are using KDE, you should really give it a try. Another great thing about RecordItNow is that it supports plugins.

Among the RecordItNow plug-ins are two which you will really like: ffmpeg and mencoder. These two plugins can automatically encode your videos in a desired format. Another interesting plug-in allows you to upload your videos directly to YouTube or blip.tv.

Other options include a timer, manually enter the FPS rate, sound recording, and include mouse clicks with different colors into the video.
