Common questions

Can I record a specific browser tab or window instead of my entire screen?

Yes. When you click "Start Screen Recording", your browser will display a permission prompt allowing you to pick an Entire Screen, a Specific Application Window, or an Individual Browser Tab.

Does this tool upload my recording to the cloud?

No. The entire recording and encoding pipeline runs completely inside your browser using the HTML5 MediaStream and MediaRecorder APIs. No video or audio is ever transmitted over the network.

What video file format is produced?

Recordings are saved as high-efficiency WebM (VP9/VP8 with Opus audio), which can be played natively in any modern browser, VLC, or uploaded directly to YouTube and Slack. MP4 is supported on compatible browser configurations.

Is there a recording duration limit?

There is no built-in time limit. You can record as long as your computer has available system memory (RAM) and local disk space to save the file.
