Adds gpu-screen-recorder and its official frontend gpu-screen-recorder-gtk; a hardware accelerated video recorder for capturing high quality footage in a variety of codecs. It is a commandline tool but the author hosts a GTK frontend that sees equally active development.
As well as screen recording, gpu-screen-recorder also offers a replay buffer feature, capturing the last N number of seconds of footage in a buffer. This is useful for gaming where you may want to have this running so you can effectively capture snippets.
gpu-screen-recorder and gpu-screen-recorder-gtk are FOSS (available git.dec05eba.com, licensed under the terms of the GNU GPLv3 license (gpu-screen-recorder license, gpu-screen-recorder-git license)
NOTE: I was unsure about the naming, as most places including most of the README for the official project refer to it as "gpu-screen-recorder", the only exception I saw was the title for the main repo that calls it "GPU Screen Recorder." However the GTK frontend repo then refers to the main tool as "gpu-screen-recorder." Let me know if you have any preference on naming. 🙂
