Record

Record without the extension

The studio records through the browser's own screen capture, with manual zooms.

Without the extension, pressing Record in the studio opens the Record your screen dialog; /studio?record=browser opens it directly. It uses the browser's own screen capture, so it works outside Chrome too.

The Record your screen dialog in the studio
  • Pick a tab, window or full screen in the browser's picker. Tick Also share audio there to capture sound.
  • Microphone is a switch and a device select, Default unless you pick one. If the permission is denied, the take records without a voice track.

Press Start recording. While recording, the dialog shows a timer and reads Recording. Come back here to stop, or use the browser's Stop sharing bar. Press Stop to keep the take or Discard to throw it away. The studio then shows Preparing your take and opens it.

Recordings run up to 30 minutes. This recorder captures no cursor data, and auto-zoom needs it, so the take edits with manual zooms; see Add and delete zooms. For auto-zoom, record with the Chrome extension.

A browser that cannot capture the screen says so: This browser can't capture the screen. Record with the Chrome extension instead.
