FAQs
1. Can I record only a part of my screen online?
Yes. You can choose to record a specific browser tab or an application window. For more precise control like selecting a custom rectangle area with your mouse, we recommend the Bandicam desktop version.
2. Why is there no sound in my online recording?
In the browser selection window, you must check the 'Also share system audio' box at the bottom. This is required to capture sound when recording your Entire Screen or Window.
3. Is it compatible with Mac and Linux?
Absolutely. Since it is a browser-based recorder, it works perfectly on macOS, Windows, and Linux without any installation.
4. Is there a recording time limit?
No. Bandicam Online Screen Recorder allows you to record for as long as you want for free. While there are no time limits, the Bandicam desktop app is recommended for extremely long sessions or high-stability tasks.
