Comment 1 Rui Matos 2014-11-12 14:43:18 UTC
By default, screencasts have maximum length of 30s to prevent creating too large files without users realizing so. This maximum can be changed with:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys max-screencast-length 120

or any other value in seconds.

Feel free to re-open if this isn't the problem you're facing.
