Re: Capture video from camcorder

I use vlc to record anything I can view. To use the record button, go to View>Advanced Controls and click the box. Very useful for editing out the trailers, etc. and get down to the actual movie.

I played around with Mandrake with limited success before I found Mepis 3.4.
