SimpleScreenRecorder als Linux-Alternative zu Loom
Aktualisiert am
Unser Fazit
SimpleScreenRecorder can replace Loom for users who need basic screen recording with webcam overlay and microphone audio, and who are comfortable with a more manual workflow. It covers full‑screen or region capture, live preview, audio from PulseAudio and mic, and export to MP4 or MKV. Editing is limited to trimming; there is no built‑in annotation or easy sharing links, so it suits developers, educators, or anyone who prefers local files over cloud‑based sharing.

Ihre Loom-Dateien öffnen
Loom records in a proprietary web‑based format that is not directly readable by SimpleScreenRecorder. You would need to export the Loom video as MP4 or WebM first, then open that file with a standard media player or editor. SimpleScreenRecorder does not import Loom files.

SimpleScreenRecorder unter Linux installieren
sudo apt install simplescreenrecordersudo apt install simplescreenrecordersudo zypper install simplescreenrecorderHäufige Fragen
Does SimpleScreenRecorder support webcam overlay?
It does not natively overlay a webcam feed; you need to run a separate webcam application and capture the combined desktop, or use a virtual webcam driver to mix streams.
Can I share my recordings directly from the app?
No, SimpleScreenRecorder only saves files locally. Uploading to services like YouTube or Loom’s cloud requires manual steps.
Is it suitable for recording online meetings?
Yes, as long as you capture the meeting window and enable microphone input. For webcam overlay you’ll need an additional tool.
