What is SimpleScreenRecorder FOR LINUX?

SimpleScreenRecorder

SimpleScreenRecorder is a simple, free, and open-source software that makes it super easy to record programs and games on your GNU/Linux system. Think of it as a cool alternative to Fraps, which is popular for Windows users who want to capture their gaming sessions or record full-screen 3D applications.

Why Choose SimpleScreenRecorder?

As the name suggests, SimpleScreenRecorder is designed to be really user-friendly. But don’t let the name fool you! Over time, it’s packed in some awesome features that have turned it into a powerful screen recording tool for Linux desktops. Plus, it's way faster compared to using FFmpeg/avconv or VLC.

Key Features You’ll Love

This software comes with an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) that makes navigating a breeze. You can choose to record just a part of your screen or go big and capture everything on your main window. If you're into gaming, it supports recording OpenGL applications too!

You won't have to worry about syncing issues because SimpleScreenRecorder does that for you when capturing video and audio streams. It even lets you pause and resume recordings whenever you need. Plus, there are useful stats like bitrate, actual frame rate, total recording time, and file size right at your fingertips!

Performance Like No Other

This software is fully multithreaded, so if you've got a computer with multiple CPUs, your video files will come out smoother than ever! And don't stress if you're running on lower-end machines; just dial down the video frame rate and you'll still get great results.

Behind the scenes, SimpleScreenRecorder is built entirely in C++ and uses the cross-platform Qt GUI toolkit. It also relies on some runtime dependencies like ffmpeg or libav (including libavcodec and libavformat), among others.

Compatibility with Linux Distributions

You’ll be happy to know SimpleScreenRecorder works with many popular Linux distributions like Ubuntu, Arch Linux, Debian, Gentoo, Fedora, and openSUSE. It's also available as a source tarball so you can easily set it up on any other GNU/Linux operating system as long as you meet its requirements. Both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures are supported too!
