Show HN: I made a free web alternative of Screen Studio

[xviniette]

Hello HN,

I've always found Screen Studio recordings superb.

Unfortunately I'm not on a Mac, so I've developed my own tool that works in the browser for all OS.

I hope you'll find it useful, and I'd be delighted to hear your feedback.

I could not figure out how to use it: - How I can stop recording? - Where output file is located?

+1 does not seems to work. For me its showing stop button but nothing happens if i click on it.

[xviniette]

The output file is in your download folder. If not, can you tell me what browser you're on?

[steelcm]

This is very impressive. Is the playback frame accurate? What are you using to retrieve the sub titles?

[xviniette]

Thanks !

For the subtitles i use the speech recognition JS native api.

It's not the use cases, but it works pretty well

I also created something web-based last year called ScreenRun https://screenrun.app

It really works best in Chromium-based browser which have WebCodecs.

Nice job dude! The app works well.

[xviniette]

Thanks you !

Browser compatibilities seem to be an issue as of right now.

[xviniette]

Yeah it should works well on Chrome. There is still some issues on Safari.
