How to record a video of what is seen on the device
 

Hello,

is it possible to record a video like Snagit on Windows?

Video of what I see on my Jolla screen.

Thanks

You mean a screencast?

You might able to use VNC on Jolla while connecting on the PC. So you can see the screen on Windows. And use any capture program on Widows to record the screen. But the framerate will be a bit slow though..

Yes.
And on SailfishOS is there any application? to record video on screen.

I kind of doubt there'll be a whole lot of new Sailfish apps at least in the near future. However, you could probably use GStreamer to perform video (and audio) tasks. I posted an example of the GStreamer command I'm using in the Maemo app Orecchiette in this post:

You should probably be able to do something similar in Sailfish...

You can use my app SailCast (linked above) with VLC media player to record the screen.

oh.. thanks... and from what I understand, we can record video only on pc over wifi (address provided by this app). I'm right?

Instructions (tablet version needs fixing, resolution is too high... so it won't work, but... I just came from post office with my brand new Jolla tablet so I may have a look at it that I have now the actual hardware):

1. Connect your Jolla phone into a wifi network
2. Start SailCast and press start
3. Connect a device which is capable of running VLC to the same network
4. Open VLC
5. Click Media -> Convert / Save ...
6. Select network tab
7. Write the stream address to the field (e.g. http://192.168.2.14:44534)
8. Click convert/save and provide a filename
9. Press start

This application displays your cellular network IP adress when WiFi is turned off and 3/4G is on. Does this mean that it's also possible to stream over an USB network connect?

what the problem to save on device?

Re: How to record a video of what is seen on the device
 

The app is just a fast hack to stream mjpeg over http. USB network should work too. Cellular network latency might be too big to stream reliably. Saving directly to the phone requires likely gstreamer and that's not implemented.

Thanks for explanation! Waiting for tablet version ;)

Re: How to record a video of what is seen on the device
 

Did you installed the harbour-sailcast-0.3-1.i486.rpm package on your tablet?

Re: How to record a video of what is seen on the device
 

No.. because of this:
I tested on the phone on 3/4G + tethering to tablet. On tablet via Firefox I can see screen of my phone :)
Phone get hot quickly :)

Re: How to record a video of what is seen on the device
 

Also installed VLC on the tablet and tested. I can see screen of my phone here, but I didn't find option to save it....
