Record a Window on Wayland
Record a Window on Wayland
Hello. Im trying to figure out, how to record a Window on wayland and i need your help. I know there is such a thing in X11, but none of screen recorders ive tried on wayland support it. I could just go with full screen recording and edit it later, but i want background be transparent, and dont want to make extra job every time.
You're viewing a single thread.
Works fine with OBS Studio (Flathub) for example.
Add a "Screen Capture (PipeWire)" source and a window should pop up asking for which screen or application window you want to capture.
Works with KDE and GNOME, not sure about other desktop environments.
Interesting... I use Hyprland. I have to check it out.
For hyprland, make sure you're using xdg-desktop-portal-hyprland since otherwise you won't get window sharing
