# screenrecord

## Usage

The script is split into two parts, recording and transcoding. You'll usually want to record into a .mkv file and then transcode that into .mp4. This is because you can interrupt the mkv recording at any point without corrupting the output file.

To start recording, run the `screenrecord` script with the following argument format:

```sh

screenrecord -s 1920x1080 -r 60 -o 128,0 -f ./video.mkv

```

To get the full list of available options, run the screenrecord script with no arguments.

You can transcode mkv files to mp4 with the following command format

```sh

screenrecord-transcode ./screenrecording.mkv ./transcoded.mp4

```

## Installation

To install screenrecord to /usr/local/bin, run the following

```sh

make install

```

You can customize the installation prefix with the PREFIX variable like so

```sh

make PREFIX=/usr install

```

## Uninstall

```sh

make uninstall

```
