  <title>Record a video</title>

  <p>To record a video using your webcam:</p>

  <steps>
    <item>
      <p>Make sure that you are in <gui>Video mode</gui>. If you are, the button
      in the middle of the window will say <gui style="button">Record a
      Video</gui>.</p>
      <p>You can switch to <gui>Video mode</gui> by clicking the button in the
      main window or by selecting
      <guiseq><gui>Cheese</gui><gui>Video</gui></guiseq>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>Click <gui style="button">Record a Video</gui>, or press the
      <key>Space</key> key. <app>Cheese</app> will start recording a video
      using your webcam.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
     <p>To stop recording, click <gui>Stop Recording</gui> or press
     <key>Esc</key>.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>

  <p>Videos are saved in the Ogg Theora (<file>.ogv</file>) format.</p>

  <p>After you have stopped recording, the video will automatically appear in
  the photo stream at the bottom of the <app>Cheese</app> window. From there,
  you can <link xref="photo-view">play back the video</link>, upload it to a
  social network, post it on your blog or YouTube channel, or share it with
  friends by <link href="help:gnome-help/net-default-email">email</link>.</p>

  <p>If you have problems sharing a video with people using other operating
  systems (like Windows or Mac OS), you may need to
  <link href="help:gnome-help/video-sending">convert it to a different
  format</link>.</p>
