I agree wholeheartedly -- "doing a video" might be great fun once in a
while, but as soon as it becomes "a job that must be done", all the fun
drains out of it...  [yes, speaking from experience here...]

Now, having said that, I noticed at the SOCALWUG meetings that Frank has
a system that streams the meeting "live" as it captures it, which cuts
out the whole after-the-fact portion of the labor (i.e., the "boring"
part)  I think you've tried to accomplish the same thing with your
laptop, but ran into problems now and then.
