If something is working and there is no obvious reason to do any changes to it, I would not consider it dead just because there is no constant development.

Disowning Kazam. Seems to be kinda dead upstream :(

For anyone else looking for screencast software with webcam overlay support, take a look at the community/obs-studio package.

I am still working on this FredBezies.....right now I am getting only this output... INFO Indicator - Unable to import Keybinder, hotkeys not available. ../kazam/app.py:169: Warning: value "((GtkIconSize) 32)" of type 'GtkIconSize' is invalid or out of range for property 'icon-size' of type 'GtkIconSize' self.builder.add_from_file(os.path.join(prefs.datadir, "ui", "kazam.ui")) (kazam:5303): Gtk-WARNING **: Can't set a parent on widget which has a parent (kazam:5303): Gtk-WARNING **: Can't set a parent on widget which has a parent Traceback (most recent call last): File "../kazam/app.py", line 677, in cb_record_clicked self.run_counter() File "../kazam/app.py", line 1010, in run_counter self.countdown = CountdownWindow(self.indicator, show_window=prefs.countdown_splash) File "../kazam/frontend/window_countdown.py", line 92, in __init__ rect = cairo.RectangleInt(0, 0, 1, 1) AttributeError: module 'cairo' has no attribute 'RectangleInt' This seems to indicate cairo hasn't got the RectangleInt attribute anymore. I do not think that is the case, I ran a test program where I used RectangleInt and it seems to work on my manjaro linux system (using python3) I will keep working on it...I really want this thing to work.

Okay...I think I have something that will work. I have fixed the main issues to at least get it running. I can at least run it locally on my Manjaro box. I would make a new one called "kazam-git" but I haven't done any packages yet and don't think this should be my first one. Here is the git repository where I have it working at least on my box. https://github.com/chrisfair/kazam.git So give that a go and see if we can get a working 1.5.4 version. I guess I will begin developing this since it looks like the original has lost support. At the very least I can fork it and begin debugging.

Or a least if you can provide a patch... It could be great :D

I was afraid you were going to say that....I agree I am getting the same thing when I try to run the program from the downloaded tar ball, or from the bzr most recent branch. I am thinking about forking it on my git hub account then try to fix the issue because I REALLY want/need this fixed.

I will look at this version as soon as possible. Cannot get kazam 1.5.3 - which is a development version - to run using desktop file.

Any chance that Kazam could be updated to the 1.53 version? That version makes it an excellent replacement for cheese which is just awful.
