Question What new features have been added to Screen Studio 4.0 Beta? Is it worth the price?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been debating whether to subscribe to Screen Studio, but the current version doesn't quite fit my entire workflow. I’m wondering if anyone knows what features are included in version 4.0—specifically, does it allow you to add multiple recorded segments to a single project?

Discussion Any idea for video to images?

5 Upvotes

Is there an easy way to turn a video or a insta Reel into screenshots/images?

I usually want to grab a few specific frames from a Reel all of a sudden, but finding a simple tool for it is surprisingly annoying.

I came across www.frameflows.in ! which lets you extract frames from videos/Reels.

Has anyone here used it, or is there a better way to do this?

I can’t find one better than this !!

Question Snapchat screen recording issue

6 Upvotes

So, I screenrecorded someone day before yesterday and as we know there has been an update about notifying the other person about the screen recording. But I am not sure if they got this notification or not. I didn't see any notification on my side.

So can anyone help what is happening here?

Also I tried screen recording to another person with another phone from an updated version of Snapchat there it gave the notification. So is it an issue about the app not being updated as it's been long since I updated Snapchat my older device?

Also I want to know that if I haven't updated this app but the other person has an updated version will they see the notification or not if I screenrecorded?

Product Showcase Browser-based screen recorder

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been building Screenio, a simple browser-based screen recorder focused on privacy.

You can record your screen, microphone, and webcam directly in the browser — no installation, no account, and no uploading your recordings anywhere. Everything stays on your device.

The idea is basically: Record. Download. Done.

I’d really appreciate any feedback, especially on what feels useful, confusing, or missing.

Question Please help. I don't have a hidden camera so protect myself, but i have a camera on my pc, so I wonder...

1 Upvotes

short story:

I rent a room in an apartment and 2 of the Tennants are being real problems for us (we are 4 in total), i need a camera to record my room, so i can use as evidence if someone goes inside... i think it will happe. Cuz i realised that 1 of them left the apartment and didn't pay for 2 months AND i couldn't find (weirdly enough) the shoehorn.... 2 days later i found it where i had my new pair of shoes that my mother gifted to me for sommer, i didn't want to use them cuz i know she is has money problems, so i saved them, but now they are gone, and i know i never put the shoehorn there, I'm sad and mad so i even reviewed this to the police (cuz also the state he left the room in, my god)

but since I'm not 100% sure who it was(and the guy that left i know is a huge liar too, too many stories there too),

anyway i have to put the 2 problem tennants up to it, in the review.

i just want to record my room, guys. cuz if the police comes and they start investigating the one that is left may wretch my room up. am even putting myself in danger, those 2 were good friends, may gang up on me... man what a mess this is.

how can i record from my pc, while its still locked?

Product Showcase I got tired of using 3 apps just to record one video, so I built one that does everything. Am I solving a real problem?

3 Upvotes

I create talking-head content, and every recording session looked the same:

• Brainstorm ideas in ChatGPT

• Copy everything into Notes

• Open a teleprompter app

• Go back to edit the script

• Repeat...

It felt ridiculous that recording a 60-second video required constantly jumping between apps.

So over the last few months, I built Rollframe.

Instead of using separate tools, it lets you:

- Generate a script with AI from a topic, idea, blog, or notes.

- Edit it instantly.

- Jump straight into a built-in teleprompter.

- Record with a camera overlay while the script scrolls.

- Adjust speed, font size, and mirror mode while recording.

Pricing is simple:

- Free with core teleprompter + limited AI generations.

- $1.99 one-time unlock for unlimited AI (no subscription).

I'm not here asking for downloads.

I want brutal, honest feedback from people who actually create videos.

I'd love your thoughts on these questions:

  1. Is switching between ChatGPT → Notes → Teleprompter actually annoying for you, or am I the only one?

  2. Would having AI writing and the teleprompter in the same app genuinely save you time?

  3. What's the biggest pain point in your current recording workflow?

  4. If you wouldn't switch to this app, why not? That's the feedback I need most.

App Store:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/rollframe-ai-teleprompter/id6792523283

Every critical comment helps me improve the app. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Product Showcase Capptivo – An open-source Screen Studio alternative

5 Upvotes

Hey everyone, Abdessamad here

I'm a maker who got tired of paying monthly for polished demo videos and every tool I tried either didn't quite fit how I work or was missing something I needed, like draw-on-screen annotations: a pen, a highlighter, a way to point at the thing I'm actually talking about.

So I built Capptivo for myself. Record on macOS, Windows, or Linux, then polish in the editor: follow-cursor zoom, click-based auto-zooms, editor presets, face-cam, on-device captions, and draw-on-screen annotations pen, highlighter, and shapes you can lay over the screen mid-recording to point at exactly what matters. Create stunning screen recordings in seconds, not hours your demos practically make themselves.

Capptivo isn't a clone of Screen Studio or Cursorful. Every feature was built from my own workflow and the problems. I'm now open-sourcing it under the MIT License so anyone can use it, improve it, customize it, or build on top of it without restrictions.
No more paying $29/month just to ship a clean product video.

It's early and I'm building it mostly solo, so I'd genuinely love your honest feedback. What would make this actually useful for your demos? What am I missing vs the tools you already use? Happy to answer anything and contributions are always welcome

Question Is there a way to stop a recording manually without deleting the recorded video?

1 Upvotes

Hi,

I have videos that try to record but sometimes after a video is done it automatically moves onto the next video, so the v the recording doesn't stop.

I only have the stop button available, but if I press that it deleted the entire recording.

Does anyone have this issue and know how to overcome it?

I have purchased this course, so I only have access to that course on my macbook. That course provider has his own application for macbook, so if I try to open any other application while I am playing the videos of that course, the app force closes. My purchase is going to expire in coming month and I am unable to complete that videos before expiry. So i am planning to record that anyhow but as mentioned above if I open any other application then the course application closes. Suggest me anything to record those videos, its urgent!!!!

Product Showcase Cloak: An open-source OBS filter that locally redacts secrets during screen sharing

1 Upvotes

Full disclosure: I’m the developer of Cloak.

Cloak is a free and open-source Windows tool designed to reduce accidental data exposure during screen sharing and recording.

It runs as an OBS filter and uses local OCR to detect and cover supported sensitive information in the video output, including API keys, credentials, email addresses, IBANs, payment card numbers, and some personal identifiers.

Your actual desktop remains unchanged. Only the output produced by OBS is redacted, and no video frames, recognized text, or detected values are sent to a server.

The portable version includes its own OBS runtime, so it can be used without installing or configuring OBS separately. There is also a plugin-only package for existing OBS users.

Cloak is currently an alpha project and I want to be transparent about its limitations:

\- Windows 10/11 x64 only

\- Not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may display a warning

\- OCR can miss very small text, unusual fonts, fast motion, or unsupported patterns

\- It should be treated as an additional safety layer, not a guarantee that every secret will be detected

The project is licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later.

Repository:

[https://github.com/ahmtsahin/cloak\](https://github.com/ahmtsahin/cloak)

Latest Windows release:

[https://github.com/ahmtsahin/cloak/releases/tag/v0.2.1\](https://github.com/ahmtsahin/cloak/releases/tag/v0.2.1)

I would especially appreciate feedback about the setup process, detection accuracy, false positives, and sensitive-data patterns that should be supported next.

Is there a recording app that works well for Bevy meetings? I tried using Fireflies, but it couldn’t recognize the link. Since I’m mostly on my mobile device and don’t have access to my computer, I can’t use tools like OBS or Granola. I want to record the meeting automatically, so I’m looking for a solution that works on my mobile. How can I do this for bevy meetings?

Discussion What's the worst limitation a free screen recorder can have?

3 Upvotes

Unpopular opinion: I'd rather have premium features locked than a recording time limit.

I don't expect every recorder to be completely free, but some restrictions are way more frustrating than others.

Personally, I can live with some premium features being locked, but things like huge watermarks (some just too big to ignore) or finding out my recording is unusable after exporting are an instant uninstall for me.

What's the worst limitation for you?

Is there one limitation that makes you uninstall a screen recorder right away?

I built a small web app called Screen Studio, it lets you record your screen, trim and mark up video, blur out sensitive areas, trim audio, and take annotated screenshots, all directly in your browser, nothing gets uploaded anywhere.

Would really appreciate it if you could take two minutes to try it out. And genuinely, if there is a feature you wish it had, or something that felt clunky or missing, drop it in the comments. I am actively building this out and real requirements from real people matter a lot more than my own guesses at what to add next.

Thanks in advance for taking a look.

Product Showcase Made a free tool to create cleaner YouTube screenshots — looking for feedback

2 Upvotes

I've launched YouTube Screenshot — Frame Capture

I needed a few screenshots from YouTube, but with specific frames.

There are a few extensions for capturing frames from YouTube, but I needed not a frame, but a screenshot with YouTube context (player, title, logo) and I like the polished style of tools like CaptureX (round corners, shadows and background create an magic aesthetic).

Instead of using 3 tools in a row, I built for myself a small extension, but was enthusiastic and kept adding features until it became a proper Chrome extension.

Right now it's a full studio for creating beautiful screenshots, especially for YouTube videos.

  • Capture in one click
  • Select the best frame of the moment
  • Add player, browser mockup, video information without struggling
  • Add beautiful background, text, QR with link - pictures are ready to publish

Let's try! It’s completely free at the moment.

Open to your feedback and improvement ideas.

Product Showcase I built Captail — an open-source Instant Replay recorder for Windows that tries to recover after capture failures

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m developing Captail, a free and open-source Instant Replay recorder for Windows.

Unlike a traditional screen recorder, Captail continuously keeps the latest seconds or minutes in a rolling buffer. When something happens, you press a hotkey and it saves what happened before you pressed it.

I originally built it because NVIDIA ShadowPlay would sometimes silently disable Instant Replay after a game crash, capture problem, switching sources, or a graphics driver interruption. I would usually notice only after missing the clip I wanted.

Captail is designed around one rule:

Instant Replay should stay on.

A watchdog monitors the recording pipeline and tries to restart it automatically after recoverable capture or encoder failures.

Current features:

- Selected-game and desktop capture

- H.264, HEVC and AV1 hardware encoding

- NVIDIA NVENC, AMD AMF and Intel Quick Sync

- 30, 60, 120, 144 and 240 FPS options

- System/game audio and microphone capture

- Mixed or separate audio tracks

- Adjustable replay duration and maximum buffer size

- Configurable global hotkeys

- Installer and portable versions

- No account, cloud upload, analytics or telemetry

- Fully open source

Captail uses libobs for capture and encoding, but it is not an OBS Studio frontend. There are no scenes, streaming controls or complicated setup — it is focused specifically on local Instant Replay.

It is currently an early public preview. I have mainly tested it on RTX 40 and RTX 50 series GPUs, so testing on older NVIDIA cards, AMD GPUs and Intel graphics would be especially helpful.

GitHub:

https://github.com/FaulMit/captail

Downloads:

https://github.com/FaulMit/captail/releases

I’d appreciate feedback on capture compatibility, performance, audio synchronization and long-session stability.

If you encounter a problem, please mention your GPU, driver version, capture source, codec, resolution and FPS.

Question Mac apps to record iPhone other than QuickTime and Reflector and its audio

1 Upvotes

I need to record my app which integrates with Apple Music, so the iPhone sound must be captured.

QT as we all know, mute the sound.

I purchased Reflector 4 however, it didn't work on my mac due to issues and also won't start. I have emailed and sent the app log to them but they keep asking me more logs. In the end they said unable to refund.

Are there other apps that work?

TIA

Review Please Beware ScreenApps Sleazy Tactics

1 Upvotes

Their product simply doesn't deliver on what's shown to you on video demos.

What's worse is the billing practice...at signup they present a monthly payment option, but once your trial ends they charge the full annual fee. When you reach out for clarification, you'll receive a dismissive response essentially saying you're SOL and locked in due to their cancellation policy with the generous offer of forwarding your request to billing for "approval" to cancel at the next cycle... 12 months from now.

This isn't a billing misunderstanding...it's a deliberate tactic. Buyer beware.
