Simple Screenshots & Screen Recording - Why You Should Use ShareX

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

Comment any questions you have about ShareX! Did you know you don't even need to have it as an "open" window for it to work? Just as long as it's running in the background, you can use your hotkeys to take screenshots that auto-save. Lifesaver.

[@mikeandersen5]

I went to Google and typed open source screen recorder. It recommended share X, then I took share X and put it in KZbin. Your video came up. I am downloading share X when I get home. I am sold

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

Nice! I'd also recommend OBS Studio. I have a video on that too. 😊👌

[@rvalens2]

Joe, you have produced an excellent video. Your voice is well suited for narration. Others would do well to listen to your vocal delivery. I actually watched the entire 25-minute video, which is something I don't do all that often. I'll be downloading ShareX in a few minutes. Thanks, Ritchie

Hey Joe, what software do you use to show the viewers the screen of information and you croped around without showing anything else???

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

I edited it to do that! You could look up PointerFocus too

[@1000kennedydk]

Thank you for all. I finally found a way to put my warm up text into the lesson. I make a word document with the script I want them to use. I open it and use sharex to capture that screen on my laptop display. Then I crop that sharex capture to the size I want and save that copy. Then I "add a blank page" into the it lesson. Then on that page, I select and add the png image I saved. I have used this 20 times this week and it saves typing the scripts over and over into the lesson. Thank you for your assistance in all things iT.

Joe: Great video ... I learned a lot and completely enjoyed your humor. Had I come across this a week ago, I could have saved the US$100 that I spent for a nice screen capture with audio to mp4 "pro" app. It's nice and does what I want but this app you have introduced me to is free and in some ways I already can see even more. Including the animated GIF creator, the variable delay to capture start, and of course the whole automatic uploading (which I don't need currently). I am absolutely blown away by your narration! Your tone of voice and diction are super and easy to follow. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. You are truly a gentleman and a scholar.

@@JoeMilneEnglish thanks will try!

[@ajaym6795]

The problem with Share X is that it only allows you to record from one audio source. You can either record the audio coming from your system (example: a KZbin video that's playing) or you can record the audio going into your microphone(you talking). It doesn't allow you to do both. Have you found a way to record both audio sources at the same time using ShareX? I know that OBS allows you to.

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

I don't use ShareX to record my screen, GeForce or OBS is best for that.

[@Hackanhacker]

you want to separate all your audio channel Of your desktop and softwares : use Voicemeter Banana free version (not demo) Its is actualy use by a lot of creator on twitch and youtube Take and redirect audio(input or output) from wherever you want to whereever you want

When i recored my game using obs why it lags? Any fix? Sir?

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

@@nyubix2673 try opening OBS as an administrator, also you might want to look at some OBS game recording guides on KZbin, and how to set your bitrate to optimize performance and record in 60+ fps.

I just tried the screen recording and did not get any sound I have windows 11 google chrome browser

HELLO SIR I AM FELIX HERE.........SIR AFTER I RECORD IT SHOWS THAT VLC CANT RECOGNIZE THE VIDEO

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

Try setting the format to mp4.

[@ChitraPhilo]

@@JoeMilneEnglish Sir can you make a special video for that.......i don't know how to do it......

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

I recommend using OBS to record your screen honestly. I don't use ShareX, only for screenshots.

[@carlingtonme]

Share x is telling me I have to save to "dropbox"! Also do you get that grey area in the screen recording?

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

Hmm. I've never been asked to save things to Dropbox.

[@carlingtonme]

@@JoeMilneEnglish It also seems to be having issues b/c my print screen button is associated with a screen shoot program

[@dragonhunter3816]

Thanks man thats really help :)

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

Cheers!

Where can I change the Screenshot-Folder?

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

You should be able to find it if you check destination settings in ShareX.

[@najmieshak2735]

Can sharex stream webcam while recording?

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

I don't think so.

[@nataliaruden5489]

Thank you for the great tutorial, Joe! Just to add to what you have said, ShareX can actually upload videos and screenshots on DropBox too, which is super useful if you run out of space on your local drive

[@JoeMilneEnglish]

So true! Thanks so much for adding this, Natalia!

[@andrewc7451]

Happy to help!
