Release list
Easy Screen Recorder 0.1.0
First development release. Records screen and audio on Linux, on Wayland and
X11, with region selection, audio-only mode, pause and resume, a global
shortcut and an environment check.
Install
Flatpak — recommended
flatpak install --user https://flatpak.solucionesconscientes.es/es.solucionesconscientes.EasyScreenRecorder.flatpakref
Updates arrive with flatpak update, from a signed repository. Use this and not
the .flatpak file below unless you have a reason to prefer a single file.
Debian and Ubuntu
easy-screen-recorder_0.1.0-1_amd64.deb, installed with sudo dpkg -i or by
double-clicking it.
One limitation worth reading before you download it. The package was built
on Ubuntu 26.04 LTS against Qt 6.10.2, and it depends on that exact version
(qt6-declarative-private-abi (= 6.10.2)). It will refuse to install on any
release that ships a different Qt. That is not a packaging mistake: the app uses
a Qt private ABI, which is versioned strictly on purpose. On any other
distribution, use the Flatpak.
easy-screen-recorder-dbgsym_0.1.0-1_amd64.ddeb is only the debug symbols. You
need it to file a useful crash report and for nothing else.
It needs gpu-screen-recorder on the host
The capture itself is done by
gpu-screen-recorder,
which is not bundled. Easy Screen Recorder drives it as a separate process and
never links against it.
Install it system-wide, not with --user. A --user install is not
reachable from inside the Flatpak sandbox, and that is the first thing that goes
wrong for people trying this.
To see whether everything is in place:
easy-screen-recorder-cli --check
What it does
- Records any monitor, a region you drag, the focused window or a camera, with
the encoding done on the GPU. - Audio-only mode, to Opus, AAC, FLAC, WAV or MP3, without turning on video
capture at all. - Pause and resume mid-recording, and a global shortcut to start and stop.
- Picks the audio device for you — system audio, microphone, or several tracks
at once. - Tells you what is missing before you press record, instead of failing halfway
through. - Interface in English and Spanish, chosen from the system language.
Developed and tested on a 2015 laptop with integrated graphics, which is the
point: the encoding is on the GPU, so the CPU stays free.
What it does not do yet
Said here rather than discovered after installing:
- Screen and webcam in the same recording is not implemented. You can record
a camera as the only source. The overlay is designed and measured in
docs/ROADMAP.md, including the finding thatoverlay_vaapidoes not work on
this hardware, so composition costs CPU. - The command-line help is in Spanish. The graphical interface is
translated;easy-screen-recorder-cliand the library's error messages are
not yet. Tracked indocs/ROADMAP.md. - The global shortcut and the tray icon are native on KDE Plasma. On other
desktops everything else works the same. - This is a
0.1.0marked as a development release. It has been used for real
recordings, not audited by anyone else.

En español
Primera versión de desarrollo. Graba pantalla y audio en Linux, sobre Wayland y
X11, con selector de región, modo de solo audio, pausa y reanudación, atajo
global y comprobación del entorno.
Instalación recomendada, con actualizaciones:
flatpak install --user https://flatpak.solucionesconscientes.es/es.solucionesconscientes.EasyScreenRecorder.flatpakref
El .deb de aquí abajo es para Ubuntu 26.04 y solo para esa versión: está
construido contra Qt 6.10.2 y depende de esa versión exacta. En cualquier otra
distribución, el Flatpak.
Hace falta gpu-screen-recorder instalado en el sistema —no con --user—,
que es quien hace la captura y no va incluido. Para comprobar qué falta:
easy-screen-recorder-cli --check.
Lo que todavía no hace: grabar pantalla y webcam a la vez (sí la cámara
sola), y la ayuda de la línea de comandos sigue en español. Las dos cosas están
en docs/ROADMAP.md.
