Take a look at scripts/twitch-stream.sh to see an example of how to stream to twitch. ## Replay mode -Run `gpu-screen-recorder` with the `-c mp4` and `-r` option, for example: `gpu-screen-recorder -w screen -f 60 -r 30 -c mp4 -o ~/Videos`.

All other output from GPU Screen Recorder is output to stderr. ## Finding audio device name You can find the default output audio device (headset, speakers (in other words, desktop audio)) with the command `pactl get-default-sink`. Add `monitor` to the end of that to use that as an audio input in gpu screen recorder.\ You can find the default input audio device (microphone) with the command `pactl get-default-source`. This input should not have `monitor` added to the end when used in gpu screen recorder.\ -- cgit v1.2.3
