Ask Ubuntu Asked by 5th Wheel on February 8, 2021
I’m on Ubuntu 14.04. I used Kazam to record a video of my desktop (a Hangouts chat) After I was done, I clicked “finish recording” and I did not get the pop-up asking me to rename and save file. So I hit “quit” , and still did not get the prompt. Now it seems the video is gone. I can’t find a Kazam folder on my file desktop, and it’s certainly not in video folder, but is it possible that it could be stored in a deep folder somewhere? I haven’t shut down my computer yet, hoping it’s somewhere temporarily cached, at least. I used Kazam yesterday, for this exact same purpose, and it worked perfectly. Perhaps because the screencast today was over an hour?
I’m not very familiar with Kazam. I just started using it last week.
EDIT:
It appears after much googling, that there are a number of bug reports concerning this exact behavior( no pop-up window, asking how to save) I still can’t find if there is a tmp file location that may have the video sitting somewhere. I’m trying to find if I can resurrect the file, before shutting down my computer, because I’m sure once I reboot, the possibility of saving it will be gone ( if not already)
This worked for me:
VLC can't read the mp4 but youtube can upload and read it
