Yes, this would have been my immediate response. I think it’s been around since 
at least Sierra (corrections invited!).

Re: [WAMUG] Recording a video of my screen

[Tim Law via WAMUG]

Hello Walter,

I’m using VLC Version 3.0.18 Vetinari (Intel 64bit) on an iMac running Ventura 
13.2.1

I don’t often have a need to use it, but it’s worked for me today with good 
conversion from a big sized .mov to a much more emailable .m4v with 
consequential of loss of quality. 

Regards

Tim

 Good morning,
 
 I am wanting to record what I am seeing on my screen. I can do a 
 screenshot using command shift 4 but that is a single moment. 
 
 The context is that I am an admin of a Facebook group and want to show 
 other admins how to find various things. 
 
 I could set up my iPad and point it at the screen, but this seems rather 
 cumbersome. Does anyone know of a way of doing this?
 
 Thanks

Re: [WAMUG] Recording a video of my screen

[Tim Law via WAMUG]

Mike, like you,  I took a while to find the Stop button up on the Menu bar at 
the top of the screen so wanted to Trim the movie. I found it was easy to do 
without using iMovie by selecting the movie in the Finder. Then the preview 
pane on the right side has some options down the bottom, including Trim. Using 
that I was able to move the slider along like you do in an iOS, to remove the 
extra shots. 

I will see if my recipients can view the .mov file. If not, I know iMovie can 
Export at .mp4 and other formats. 

VLC Player also exports as .m4v

Regards

Tim

Thanks Mike,

I’ve found command shift 5 works too.

Re: [WAMUG] Recording a video of my screen

QuickTime Player…"new screen recording" Various options include full screen, 
parts of the screen. Make sure you check save on desktop. Stop recording by 
finding the tiny little ’stop’ button that appears in the menu bar (took me 
gaes to work out how to stop). Saves on your desktop as ’screen recording 
..time”. Edit in iMovie. 

Cheers
Mike
