vokoscreenNG is a free and open-source screen recording application for Linux (X11 and Wayland) and Windows, written in C++. It records the full screen, an area, or a window, with multi-source audio, webcam overlay, and helper tools like countdown, timer, magnifier, Showclick, and Halo.

Use cases

  • record my screen on linux
  • capture a screencast tutorial video
  • record a single window or screen area
  • record screen with microphone and system audio at the same time
  • record screen with webcam overlay on wayland
  • create an animated gif from screen recording
  • record gameplay or app demos on windows

When to choose

  • you need a free, open-source screen recorder on Linux (especially Wayland) or Windows
  • you want simultaneous multi-source audio recording and webcam picture-in-picture
  • you need helper features like countdown, timer, click highlighting, or global hotkeys
  • you prefer native packages or Flatpak with mkv/mp4/gif output

When to avoid

  • you need advanced post-production video editing rather than plain capture
  • you need macOS support
  • you require streaming/broadcasting features rather than local recording
