Failure to do so will probably get your threads deleted or worse.
xvidcap is in the backtrack repos so you can just type apt-get install xvidcap into terminal just as archangel said.
Or they can just type in syanptic in the konsole, and look for xvidcap in the Synaptic pakage manager GUI. I personly like using the apt-get install {pakage_name_here} as archangel and dex1218 suggest.
