[SOLVED] xvidcap

is xvidcap no longer in repos?  i tried to install after running sudo pacman -Syu

used pacman -S xvidcap

came back with

~]$ sudo pacman -S xvidcap
error: target not found: xvidcap

is it under a different name?

It is in the AUR.  If it used to be community, perhaps it had to be moved.  There are various reasons this could happen.

Typically either AUR or package search help here:

Also I would recommend either ffmpeg or glc for recording. They are better in my opinion. Though needs a little work.
