Indicator when reccording?

Open harshadgavali opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

Hi, App doesn't show any indicator when recording is on. I've gnome-shell-extension-appindicator installed from fedora repos. Is there possibility of having indicator even when appindicator is not installed? Like what GNOME's default screen-recorder does.

Hi.I can send a notification about the beginning of the recording, will this be enough?

Benefit of indicator of would be

  1. as an Indicator that recording is on.
  2. Stop recording without searching app to stop.
  3. Start recording, useful if want to take multiple recordings.

I tried adding indicator using guide

But I don't know all dependencies for python libindicator for flatpak, so can't actually test if it works or not.

On Wayland at least, GNOME displays it's built-in indicator in the top right when you record your desktop… :thinking: (tested with fedora 32)

Using built-in gnome shell video recorder should also give an indicator in x11 (if it didn't use gst-launch as a backend)
