What problem does it solve?
Recording from multiple capture sources (screen, webcam, microphone, and system audio) can be platform-specific and brittle. This skill provides a unified FFmpeg-based workflow to capture high-quality video and audio across macOS, Windows, and Linux.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Cross-platform capture using FFmpeg backends (macOS avfoundation, Windows gdigrab/dshow, Linux x11grab/kmsgrab) for screen, region capture, webcam, and audio.
- Includes a small Python wrapper (scripts/capture.py) to enumerate devices, assemble commands, and run captures, plus a reference guide (references/devices.md) for deep options.
- Use cases include screencasts, tutorials, product demos, and archiving live sessions with reproducible outputs.
Quick Start
List devices and start a capture with the appropriate ffmpeg-capture command.
