Async: Share my screen

« To Async recording: Overview

When you use Riverside to record yourself, you can share your computer screen during the recording. The person who invited you to record will also get a video file of the shared screen when you finish.

These steps are for recording without a host or producer in the studio. If you are recording with other people, follow the steps here instead.

  • If you are using a Mac and have not shared your browser's screen before, enable it in System Settings. You may have to quit and reopen the browser. Set this up before you start recording.
  • Screen shares do not appear on the recording preview but are included in the final recording file.
