I created Shadow Cast after becoming disillusioned with the lack of simple, performant display recording utilities for X11. All feedback welcome.

    Shadow Cast: GPU accelerated screen and audio recording…

    Thanks for sharing your work at Lemmy! I say this because although I don’t use Reddit, I’m sure that logically because there are more users there and being more famous, it is the preferred platform for developers to share their work.

    Think you’ll implement a replay feature in the future? I love that feature.

    And is there any chance of porting your job in the future to Wayland? Currently there is no program (only OBS, as far as I know) that allows recording in Wayland, it would be great to have more options.

      Thank you for your kind words!

      I haven’t made the jump to Wayland yet. I basically live in the terminal (when I’m not playing games!) so haven’t been in any rush. I definitely want to support Wayland going forward because it seems everyone has switched but me!

      I absolutely plan to support team red/blue GPUs. I just don’t have access to the h/w right now

      Just by “eyeballing” the two, there’s very little, if any difference on my setup.

      I’d be surprised if it doesn’t do something similar. I haven’t used OBS so I can’t really comment to it’s performance

    I like how happy the dood is on the repo profile pic. Like he beat the final boss in Sekiro in one try. 10/10 project.
