Ideally, I'd like to take a screen capture recording and bring it into
a video editing program where I can then work it into something that
can be distributed.
We're using Real VNC on a windows computer running 800x600 24bpp
resolution and capturing on an Ubuntu Linux computer. I'd like the
output to remain at 800x600, or maybe 400x300.
The command I run to capture is:
vncrec -depth 24 -record larry-test.vnc 10.0.0.61
An example of one of the many transcode commands I have tried is:
transcode -i larry-test.vnc -o larry-test.avi -y xvid4
Usually the screen is flooded with the following message:
[tcxpm2rgb.c:334] truncated 16 characters
The resulting video plays, but it only shows about 25% of the original
video window zoomed full size. The video is usually truncated and the
colors are weird.
Sorry for late reply. I hope you already solved the problem yourself.

I heard there are problems converting 24 bpp video. You might get
better result with 16 bpp.

There's another way to produce video using vncrec, using the version
by Tilman Kranz.
