Another option is to invest in some screencast software
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screencast) and simply capture what's going on in
the Jmol window.
Some of these programs (like ScreenFlow) also have editing capabilities that
allow you to annotate and smooth things out a bit (for example remove long
loading times).
An example:
