Good alternative for wf-recorder, I like it 😃

Possibly requires ffmpeg 6.0 though, which is still in progress.

I can build the package with the template but it shows error when I execute it. Maybe it is missing some runtime dependency:

03:35:11 [WARN] there is a known vaapi codec (h264_vaapi) for codec H264, but it's not available. Using a generic encoder...

03:35:11 [ERROR] failed to create encoder(s): Failed to load vaapi device: Cannot allocate memory. This is likely *not* a bug in wl-screenrec, but an issue with your vaapi installation. Follow your distribution's instructions. If you're pretty sure you've done this correctly, create a new issue with the output of `vainfo` and if `wf-recorder -c h264_vaapi -d /dev/dri/renderD128` works.

The runtime dependency is indeed vaapi drivers. I built it with mesa-vaapi for my AMD laptop and it fixed the error. For Nvidia, it should be nvidia-vaapi-driver, but I don't have one with me to test.

Try working with that if you're still interested.
