No such interface “org.freedesktop.portal.ScreenCast”

Then install a package which provides that interface? Pity the strange package system used by this app can't automatically solve dependencies, like apt/rpm does.

Not an expert, but I think xdg-desktop-portal provides this. If not, google the error to find package name to install.

Exactly. I'm not gonna install a bunch of random crap that I'll have to manually keep track of and remove when I inevitably come up short attempting to play FOSS whackamole. I found alternative that's less buggy; it only records 1/4 of my screen when I ask for fullscreen, but it's something, LOL
