Better Recorder Pro

How do I record my screen and my camera at the same time on a Mac?

Screen and camera picture-in-picture to a local MP4 with system audio.

Better Recorder Pro recording setup

The situation

An indie developer or teacher needs a product demo: the UI on screen, a face cam, system audio from the app, and a separate mic for voice.

What usually goes wrong

QuickTime is limited on layout. OBS can do everything but asks for a scene-building project when you only wanted a finished MP4.

A clearer path

  1. Open Better Recorder Pro → Screen + Camera.
  2. Pick display or window, camera, mic; enable system audio when available.
  3. Place PiP on the nine-position grid, run preflight, record. Stop to a local MP4.
