winget install --id=doanduc.MultiScreenRecorder -e Lightweight desktop screen recorder for Windows built with Tauri 2. Records up to 4 screens or windows simultaneously into a single video with an automatic grid layout, live previews, microphone and system audio, webcam overlay, auto-stop timer, standard output resolution caps (720p to 8K) and one-click H.264 MP4 export via bundled FFmpeg.
Record multiple screens at once — combined into a single video.
A fast, lightweight desktop screen recorder for Windows, built with Tauri 2 (Rust + WebView2). Terminal-style UI. No accounts, no telemetry, no watermarks. Free & open source.
Most screen recorders capture one display at a time. If you work with multiple monitors — trading dashboards, live ops monitoring, multi-window demos, game + chat layouts — you normally need OBS and a pile of configuration.
Multi Screen Recorder does it in two clicks: add up to 4 screens or windows, hit REC, and get a single video with everything laid out in a clean grid.
| Feature | Details | |
|---|---|---|
| 🖥️ | Multi-screen capture | Up to 4 screens/windows in one video — auto grid layout (2 → side by side, 3–4 → 2×2) |
| 👀 | Live previews | See every source live before and during recording |
| 📐 | Standard output sizes | Cap output at 720p / Full HD / 2K / 4K / 8K — scaled down cleanly, never stretched |
| 🎙️ | Microphone | Mixed into the recording in real time |
| 🔊 | System audio | Capture what you hear (share-audio picker) |
| 📷 | Webcam overlay | Picture-in-picture in the corner |
| ⏱️ | Auto-stop timer | Set minutes/seconds, walk away — with live countdown |
| 🎚️ | Quality control | Bitrate 1–8 Mbps, VP8 (smooth seeking) or VP9 (smaller files) |
| 🎬 | MP4 export | One-click conversion to H.264 MP4 (faststart, seek-optimized) with progress bar |
| 🔁 | File converter | Convert existing WebM/MKV/AVI files to MP4 |
| 📁 | Custom save folder | Pick where recordings go — remembered between launches |
| 🖤 | Terminal UI | Phosphor-green, CRT-scanline, keyboard-culture aesthetic |
Small footprint: the app binary is ~10 MB (plus bundled FFmpeg). No Electron, no Chromium bundle — it uses the WebView2 runtime already on your Windows.
