💖 vokoscreenNG 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the vokoscreenNG manual page, section 1 of the Unix man pages (that's the "user commands" section, iykyk) 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

vokoscreenNG — user friendly Open Source screencast 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so here's literally the whole invocation, she's simple like that:

Usage: vokoscreenNG

no flags, no args, no drama. you just run her and she goes 💅

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so vokoscreenNG is an easy to use screencast creator, and when I say easy I mean easy, bestie. she records videos from your computer screen, your webcams, external cameras, etc. like, the whole buffet 🌈

this graphical tool can produce educational videos, live recordings of browser navigation, tutorials of installations, record videoconferences, etc. you can capture an alone video or video and sound — so if you just want the visuals, she'll do that, and if you want the full audiovisual experience, she does that too 🫶

this program can save files in some formats and use some codecs for video and audio:

  • Video: x264, VP8, H.264 (Intel GPU) and MPEG-2 (Intel GPU).
  • Audio: vorbis, flac, opus and mp3.
  • File : mkv, webm, avi, mp4 and mov.

and here's the lore, because it's giving main character energy: vokoscreenNG is a modern full replacement for vokoscreen, and both were written by Volker Kohaupt. the main difference is that vokoscreen uses ffmpeg as base, while vokoscreenNG has been rewritten from scratch and is based in GStreamer. glow-up of the century fr fr ✨

🎀 FILES 🎀

settings are stored under $HOME/.config. (yes, bestie, that's where your config lives, no cap)

  • ~/.config/vokoscreenNG/vokoscreenNG.ini — Configuration file stores audio settings, standard player, video path.
  • ~/.config/vokoscreenNG/log/vokoscreenNG.log — Log file stores information about the last execution of vokoscreenNG.
