Video Recording

antix

Hey everyone. I want to record the desktop player and it would be great if I was able to record on my Android device too. I then want to upload them to a YouTube channel too.

What does everyone use to accomplish these tasks? Are there any free, easy to use programs out there?

I'm not sure about the best way to do this for the desktop player or Android. For Mac + iOS, I've been connecting my device via USB and then using Quick Time Player to record the game being played on the device.

I'm also on Mac, and use Quicktime's "Screen recording" function for the desktop, and "Movie recording" for iOS devices.

Android now has a built-in feature to record the screen bundled with their "Play Games" app, which works well on my Nexus 6 (although I haven't figured out how to remove my smiling face from the recordings).

Darn, I use windows and really don't want to install QuickTime

I found FRAPS but it has a "fraps" logo on everything in the free version.

@pie, thanks. That works but it crashes a lot. I got it to record some things which is cool, but sound recording doesn't work. I suppose for now I can make soundless videos until I find a batter solution.

I ended up purchasing Movai Screen Capture Studio. It's super easy to use

Yiliaaaa

My computer runs Win 10 operating system. However, I don't take the aid of its built-in screen recorder, Xbox DVR, which will regard all desktop activity as game. The one I am using now is a reliable screen recorder for Windows, called Joyoshare Screen Recorder, that can cut recordings to different sections and skip unwanted portions in flexible way.
