Hi there I guess I may be behind the curve here, but this may help someone: I got the Cam Studio thing that Steve suggested working, and it produces about 500 mb of avi video for one Tater class. I've been fiddling around with this and you can then pretty much do whatever you want with it - all with Freeware - so that you can relive every embarassing second of your lesson, or even work on the difficult bits:
There's a program called 'Handbrake' which will convert the avi file into a file suitable for putting on your video compatible ipod, and there's a program called 'Switch' which can convert the avi file from the lesson into a wav file. Once you have the wav file, you can use 'Audacity' to edit out the nasty bits where you are utterly failing to get the intro to Roanoke, or talking about the dodgy behaviour of some Bluegrass Boys, and just keep the meat from the class. Once you have done that, and 'normalised' it to get the volume up a bit, you can use 'Switch' again to convert your edited wav file to an Mp3, and get it onto your ipod, or use the Windows Media Player to slow it down. If you then add a backing track from a Hypnotherapy Practitioner you will be able to put the essence of Taterbuglesson on repetition all night and wake up knowing it all... I think all these programs are easy to find and use, but if anyone needs a hand, please shout. Also this is all for Windows. Probably on a Mac you just plug in your mandolin and it learns it for you..
