What it does
Blue Recorder records desktop video and audio using GTK4 and FFmpeg, with documented Windows, Linux and FreeBSD build routes.
Blue Recorder uses GTK4 and FFmpeg to record desktop video and a selected audio input. It lists AVI, GIF, MKV, MP4, NUT, WebM and WMV output and saves chosen interface settings for later sessions.
The repository offers Snap, Flatpak and source-build routes, with FFmpeg, GStreamer, libadwaita and PipeWire among the dependencies; X11 area selection additionally uses xwininfo. Its stated Wayland support is for GNOME and KDE, so check the session rather than assuming every Linux compositor works. Windows and FreeBSD build instructions are also documented.
Strengths
- The repository provides platform-specific build dependencies.
