Automatically minimize application before starting recording

Open tronta opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

It would be great, if the application would automatically minimize (option?) itself before starting the recording, as the recording app is mostly not of interest when recording the screen.

Hi. Great idea, I'd like that too. I hope that will soon return to developing RecApp. I want to add some cool new features(remove slop from dependencies, record microphone, select monitor for recording) and improve support for wayland

A problem with this is that, it will be hard to tell how to stop the recording, unlike with screenshot apps.

Maybe a solution is possibly a notification in the shell (unideal in gnome philosophy), or leave the recapp window but don't capture it on the recorded video.
