Thanks for the kind words.

I haven’t yet tried using Damien’s screencasting.el, but skimming
through it, near the end we see:

(defun screencasting-setup ()
  "Setup keybindings."
  (interactive)
  (bind-key "C-. q s" #'screencasting-start)
  (bind-key "C-. q k" #'screencasting-stop))

Hinting that the main commands of the package are `screencasting-start'
and `screencasting-stop', defined earlier in the file.  You could either
invoke them like M-x screencasting-start RET, or using the defined key
bindings.  Of course, feel free to change the definitions to invoke the
programs with the correct arguments for your setup.

P.S. The two key bindings there are defined using the `bind-key' macro
from use-package [0].  You will want to make sure you have use-package
installed; or alternatively, change `screencasting-setup' to define the
bindings using one of Emacs’s own facilities, like `global-set-key'.

Hope this helps.
