Enable/Disable Screen Recordings Upon Sound Alerts Feature #7402

Open fixck opened 7 months ago

Could this feature be implemented?

Have ShareX trigger random lengths recordings at random times based upon specific audio signals. For example, when the PC plays the "Switch On" audio signal, ShareX starts a recording. Then after some random time interval elapses, the computer plays the "Switch Off" audio signal and ShareX stops the recording.

ShareX would simply "listen all day long to" the computer for the said audio signals, and auto start and stop recordings (for example for a 10 hours period, ShareX would record at random times between 10 and 200 clips based on the audio alerts it hears from the computer).

I looked at this Reddit related AHK macro suggestion but I'm not sure how this could work with ShareX.

I am looking for the same feature: to start screen recording when audio is heard in the compure. I imagine to select the region and be ready to iniare to record the screen and audio, instead of pressing the START button or the chosen key combination, it would be most convenient to start recording when ShareX hears the audio.
