This section covers the areas of capturing media from the web or television by the use of recording.
-Access the Record function via \texttt{File} $\rightarrow$ \texttt{Record}\dots The recording application really only does one thing, capture media from some external source, and write it onto a file in a specified way.

-When recording from the screen, a large green-colored boundary box appears to allow you to easily frame the screen area to be recorded when you move it around to where you want to position it. In addition there are \textit{record cursor} and \textit{big cursor} check boxes which allow for also recording the cursor and for making the cursor bigger.

\CGG{} DVB recording/playback can now easily be done in \textit{couch potato} mode using a remote control. This comes in handy when you want to playback on a big TV screen for multiple person viewing. You can use the Application/Menu key on the keyboard to toggle between standard \CGG{} usage or a Dispatcher methodology through use of a remote control, an Android programmed device such as a tablet, or keyboard. The Application/Menu key on most keyboards is between the Alt and Ctrl keys on the right hand side bottom and depicts a menu on it either with or without a pointer (see image below). An ati-x10 Remote Control device (figure~\ref{fig:remote01}) is currently working with \CGG{} and other remote controls may work but have never been tried. The red/orange box on the top left main screen of \CGG{} indicates Dispatcher Method access is activated which allows for keyboard grab which routes all key strokes until toggled off. Below are the currently defined operations.

\begin{itemize}
\item Choose \texttt{Settings $\rightarrow$ Preferences $\rightarrow$ Recording} tab in the Preferences menu (figure~\ref{fig:recordingx}).
\item Choose a \textit{File Format} -- a common suggestion is \textit{ffmpeg} with a \textit{file type} of mp4. In some cases depending on your capture card, the File Format will be set to \textit{MPEG stream} capture. Some formats support MPEG stream capture technique, otherwise the data has to be decoded first and then encoded.
\item Also, \textit{Device path} should be verified to be correct in case you have more than 1 device. In the 2 previously mentioned devices, it should proabably be set to /dev/video0.
\end{itemize}
+\textit{Step 3}: Next use the \textit{File} pulldown to choose \textit{Record} and then the Recording menu will popup (figure~\ref{fig:vhs01}).

\begin{itemize}
\item Click on the Antenna icon ($3^{rd}$ icon from the left on the left side of the right hand screen window).
\item In the popup \textit{Channels} menu, click on \texttt{Add} which brings up the \textit{Edit Channel} menu.
\item Use the down arrow in the \textit{Input} box to display the available options. In the test case, and very likely your case too, \textit{S-Video 1} should be picked.
- \item In the Recording menu, be sure to designate a complete path and filename in the \textit{Path:} textbox which will be used to record/write the playing media. Remember you must have the media on a file in order for \CGG{} to load it on the timeline for editing purposes.

\item Then highlight \textit{S-Video} in the \textit{Channels} Menu. Again, the choice in the Channels Menu might not be S-Video -- choices could vary widely. Start recording in your Recording menu by clicking on the second icon from the left, next to the \textit{Transport} label (it is usually a round red colored button).
\item Next press \textit{play} on your media hardware device. If on the \textit{Video In} side window you see only noise, then S-Video or something else was an incorrect choice and you will have to perform some tests to find correct choices.
