Hi arian.
First, I would recommend FRAPS instead of gamecam. The quality of the video is *much* better and its much easier to use.
I downloaded and tried gamecam after you mentioned it. When you install it, you have to go through many different screens and install extra codecs. Then its not explicitly easy to figure out how to start recording. I figured out how to setup the profile for Second Life after a few minutes. On the positive side, it doesn't seem to have too much overhead on my machine. I have a strong graphics card but only 512mb of RAM so my performance is a little above average for most people.
I was not happy with how the keys were setup to start and stop recording.
Use FRAPS. Just install it, then hit F9 to start and stop recording. It also tells you what your FPS is. Much better video quality.
Im not sure why you want the mouse to be recorded in your video. When recording machinima, its best recommended to do control-alt-1 to hide and show the interface.
