Alternatives to Cheese





.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}

I am running Ubuntu GNOME 15.04 and I find Cheese very basic, are there any alternatives (I have already read this Anything better than Cheese for video capture?, however that is only really on video recording, and I would like a balance)?



Specifically, I would like an application which can:




  • Record from the webcam

  • Take pictures

  • Record audio

  • Take screencasts (audio recording included in that as well)


Is there a program that can do all this?

    I'd say this is rather opinion based and has no 100% good answer

    @DavidCole: Well, there are many questions like this on the site, and they tend to find at least a good collection of alternatives, so I don't see why this one shouldn't.
