Is it possible to record the webcam as an independent video? #908

Hi,

There is the possibility to capture the screen with the webcam as a picture in picture. But I would rather record both as a separate video. This would make the editing more beautiful. Is that possible? If so, how and if not, is it possible to do this with the plugin API?

Thanks for the help!

This would probably be an editing plugin. How would you access the recording afterwards? Also if you edit and crop the video how would that match the separate recording?

I was working on a plugin that actually overlayed the webcam over the selected cropper. It's click through and it gets opacity on hover but it still is present in the screen while you record. Was having some permissions issues but I might try to work on it again.

hi @karaggeorge, that sounds interesting. I'm sure I could use it. If you need any help, feel free to contact me! I don't have a lot of time for Open Source right now but I would be happy if I can help

@skllcrn wanted to ask why the issue was closed?

Sorry @snics, that was accidental, thank you for pointing it out! @karaggeorge has been doing some really exciting experimentation related to this.

@skllcrn no problem, just thought I might have missed something and didn't follow the guidelines 😀

Yes, I am really curious, I will help you if I can help!
