Using the source Argument

Desktop

Use the desktop parameter to capture the entire Desktop (Default). Works with both captura-cli start and captura-cli shot. This is the default option, so is as good as not using this option.

e.g.

captura-cli start --source desktop

Region

Use Left, Top, Width and Height resp. as comma separated values to represent the region to capture. Works with both captura-cli start and captura-cli shot. The dimensions of the region must be even. If not, they are decreased by 1 as required.

e.g.

captura-cli shot --source 100,100,300,400

Screen

Use screen:<index> as the argument. index is a zero-based index identifying the screen.

Works with both captura-cli start and captura-cli shot.

You can use captura-cli list to check screen indices.

e.g.

captura-cli start --source screen:1

No Video

Use none for No Video.

Available only with captura-cli start.

Can be used for audio only recording.

e.g. Record only the speaker output.

captura-cli start --source none --speaker 0

Window

Use win:<hWnd> as the argument. hWnd is handle of the window.

When using with captura-cli start, the window handle must be in the captura-cli list output.

You can use captura-cli list to check visible window handles.

Webcam

Use webcam as the argument to capture only the webcam. Can only work with captura-cli start.

Use the --webcam argument to set the webcam. You can use captura-cli list to check available webcams.

e.g.

captura-cli start --source webcam --webcam 0
