How can I record a video of my simulation?

[stephane-caron]

For a quick and dirty solution, you can record your whole desktop using e.g. kazam. However, with this approach the video time will be your system time, potentially slowed down by all other processes
running on your machine (including kazam itself).

To record a video synchronized with your simulation time, call sim.record("filename.mp4"). This will schedule an extra CameraRecorder process that takes a capture of your simulation window after each step. You can then run your simulation as usual. Once your simulation is over, call the make_pymanoid_video.sh script created in the current folder. It will reassemble screenshots into a properly timed video filename.mp4.
