From cbf4cba5a97ed7ed9303627ceb644aff9c1fbf4e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: dec05eba Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2024 19:09:40 +0100 Subject: Allow recording app audio with -a, deprecate -aa and -aai Use -a "app:brave" instead of -aa "brave". Use -a "app-inverse:brave" instead of -aai "brave". This now allows merging audio devices and app audio into the same audio track. --- README.md | 9 --------- 1 file changed, 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'README.md') diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 8982bdd..559e0db 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -129,15 +129,6 @@ The replay buffer is stored in ram (as encoded video), so don't use a too large To save a video in replay mode, you need to send signal SIGUSR1 to gpu screen recorder. You can do this by running `killall -SIGUSR1 gpu-screen-recorder`.\ To stop recording send SIGINT to gpu screen recorder. You can do this by running `killall -SIGINT gpu-screen-recorder` or pressing `Ctrl-C` in the terminal that runs gpu screen recorder. When recording a regular non-replay video this will also save the video.\ To pause/unpause recording send SIGUSR2 to gpu screen recorder. You can do this by running `killall -SIGUSR2 gpu-screen-recorder`.

The videos are saved to `$HOME/Videos`. You can use these scripts to start replay at system startup if you add `scripts/start-replay.sh` to startup (this can be done differently depending on your desktop environment / window manager) and then go into -- cgit v1.2.3
