If you download the packaged .exe file from the Releases section, you do not need to install Python, FFmpeg, or any additional libraries. Everything is included in the executable.
But if you want to test on the Windows script (miniscreenrecorder.py) first install the latest version of Python and then run these packages in the CMD:
pip install pillow mss numpy opencv-python screeninfo
You need to have Python 3.x and FFmpeg installed on your system, beside the additional libraries.
As you suspect, the main file to run the app on Linux it's miniscreenrecorderLinux.py.
For Linux (Debian), run this in your terminal:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install python3
sudo apt install python3-pip
pip install pillow mss numpy opencv-python screeninfo
sudo apt-get install python3-pil.imagetk
- Update the package index:
sudo apt update
- Install FFmpeg:
sudo apt install ffmpeg
- Verify the installation:
ffmpeg -version
To prevent Windows UAC prompts from interrupting recording, you should select the second-to-last option, which says Notify me only when apps try to make changes to my computer (do not dim my desktop). Or, if you want, completely disable it.
Well, there are several experimental settings in the application, but the configuration that gives the best results is with the libx264 codec and the mkv format.
Just activate the Stero Mix in the sound settings (in the Recording tab you can find it).
