Hi Noel, *,
I might be missing something - but a spreadsheet document is not a
screencast video...
doh!! but obviously I copied the wrong link http://users.freedesktop.org:8080/~noelp/zoom/zoomcast.ogv is what I meant

for me the high bit rate "--v_bitrate  2000000" was necessary to smoothly
capture mouse movements,
Strange that the bitrate has impact - should have been the framerate..
But with low bitrate the image gets "muddy", so maybe that's what you
meant.
no really for me the main problem was it seemed not to pick up fast movements I can't recall exactly now whether it was additionally 'muddy', don't think it was but...
[...]
so.. onto the subtitles lots of google hits make me try 'aegisub' but this
was a waste of time for me, just didn't work,
Works excellent for me :-) - but may need a little time to get used to
on how to define when a subtitle should be displayed (in other words
on how to do timing)
unfortunately aegisub really just didn't work, complained about no video provider ( or some error that sounded vaguely like that ). From looking around it appeared it should use ffmpeg but aegisub didn't see it and didn't provide a way for me to point it at it ( there was a box in the options for choosing a video provider but it was grayed out, there was also a config file I tried to hack all to no avail ) so I just gave up :-(
[...]
My key point is to not use a chain of lossless conversions, but only
to do the lossless one as last step.

as interesting as the arcade of options to the various tools above is ( thanks for posting them :-), sometime I will find the time to look at them more closely ) what I really was after was a way to go from ogv video +.srt file ( or .ass if you prefer ) -> ogv file with re-encoded subtitles ideally *without* the need to download restricted formats [*] not sure if the info above tells me that, I guess I need more time to study what's there more

[*] not that I am not adverse to downloading restricted codecs and the like but I tend to keep my work desktop machine clear of stuff from non-distro ( e.g. packman and the like ) repos that can cause zypper to complain about this version and that version of this and that conflicting etc. when upgrading installing etc.
