Patrick H. Laukesneak peek at a little something i'm working on at the moment... mainly as a reminder to my future self ... all will be revealed soon enough #a11y
TetraLogical...and here we go, scratching my own itch here (as i keep forgetting this wrinkle when i get back to Android): getting a screen recording on vanilla Android that includes TalkBack (in short: can't currently be done on device, at least not cleanly) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvnjA4HkR4I #a11y #accessibility #android #barrierefreiheit #accessibilita
a post-release sneak peek at the video editing project, for the three people who care... main difference from the (already quite far along) timeline from the other day is that everything's been tightened up (a good 30+ seconds shorter), and a lot more micro-edits on the audio to get rid of unnecessary pauses and noises, a retake of a few lines of voiceover, and everything normalised/compressed/processed
Vayia M@patrick_h_lauke My screen recording on Android captures TalkBack audio 🤔
@vayiam what phone, what version of Android? (and you 100% sure it's not just recording it via microphone?)
@patrick_h_lauke OnePlus, OxygenOS 13.0
@patrick_h_lauke yes, 100% sure it's capturing system sound
@vayiam so OxygenOS, rather than Android (vanilla)
@patrick_h_lauke yep, skin for Android 13, apparently
Adrian Roselli@patrick_h_lauke Yeah, still an open bug so old I don’t even know where it’s tracked anymore. I have to mic it.
Eric Eggert@patrick_h_lauke YouTube doesn’t allow me to post this comment for some reason 🤷‍♂️
scrcpy is definitely the way to go. you can also directly record the source audio and video through it using scrcpy --record=file.mp4 (other, non-mp4 formats are available) which saves you the step of syncing the recordings.
While the screen output on your device can have compression artifacts, with the scrcpy recording, image and audio is recorded on device and combined on PC/Mac. See: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/blob/master/doc/recording.md
floris 🍉@patrick_h_lauke Oh amazing, I tried this three weeks ago and couldn’t find anything to make it work. Thanks for sharing!
Gerard K Cohen@patrick_h_lauke I recently found this out the hard way at the worst time. I ended up doing screen recording on device while holding it up to the mic to record audio. It was pretty easy to sync after that.
