You need to additionally have `cuda` installed when you run `gpu-screen-recorder`.\ Recording monitors requires a gpu with NvFBC support (note: this is not required when recording a single window!). Normally only tesla and quadro gpus support this, but by using [nvidia-patch](https://github.com/keylase/nvidia-patch) or [nvlax](https://github.com/illnyang/nvlax) you can do this on all gpus that support nvenc as well (gpus as old as the nvidia 600 series), provided you are not using outdated gpu drivers. # How to use diff --git a/install.sh b/install.sh new file mode 100755 index 0000000..0d73bf7 --- /dev/null +++ b/install.sh @@ -0,0 +1,10 @@ +#!/bin/sh + +script_dir=$(dirname "$0") +cd "$script_dir" + +[ $(id -u) -ne 0 ] && echo "You need root privileges to run the install script" && exit 1 + +./build.sh +install -Dm755 "gpu-screen-recorder" "/usr/bin/gpu-screen-recorder" +echo "Successfully installed gpu-screen-recorder" diff --git a/install_ubuntu.sh b/install_ubuntu.sh index 768475d..edc02ed 100755 --- a/install_ubuntu.sh +++ b/install_ubuntu.sh @@ -20,7 +20,7 @@ libs="$(pkg-config --libs $dependencies) -ldl -pthread -lm" g++ -c src/sound.cpp -O2 $includes g++ -c src/main.cpp -O2 $includes g++ -o gpu-screen-recorder -O2 sound.o main.o -s $libs -install -Dm755 "gpu-screen-recorder" "/usr/local/bin/gpu-screen-recorder" +install -Dm755 "gpu-screen-recorder" "/usr/bin/gpu-screen-recorder" echo "Successfully installed gpu-screen-recorder" [ "$cuda_missing" -eq 1 ] && echo "You need to reboot your computer before using gpu-screen-recorder because cuda was installed" |
