When opening the "Take Screenshot" program the user should be able to switch between “take a screenshot” or “take a video”. The other option should be the same as they are right now, except a menu in the video mode to regulate the video compression rate.
The video should be saved as ogg. This function would give the user a function that a lot of people are missing in a basic installed operating system – taking a screencasts.
Maybe add the “Audi-Recorder” to the same program dialog, so that we have only one program for all three needs.

On the other hand I'm thinking that this could also be a way to add more open source material into the main stream (Firefox 3.5 will support ogg).
