A simple screen recording tool built with Python and OpenCV (`cv2`). This recorder captures screenshots at a specified frame rate, includes a duration counter, and saves the output as an AVI file in a designated recording folder. The application features a graphical user interface (GUI) built with Tkinter.

## ✨ Features

-   📹 Records screen at a configurable frame rate

-   ⏲️ Duration counter

-   🎞️ Saves recordings in AVI format

-   📂 Outputs videos to a `recordings` folder in the current working directory

2. Install the required Python packages:

    ```bash

    pip install -r requirements.txt

    ```

## 🚀 Usage

1. Run the screen recorder script:

   `python main.py`

2. Adjust the frame rate by modifying the constructor parameters in the `main.py` file.

3. The output video will be saved in the `recordings` folder within the current working directory, with a timestamped filename.
