Describe your suggested feature

Currently when sample rate is configured to auto default sample rate and default encoding bitrate is used for the actual recording.
When disabling auto and entering sample rate value manually it may not fully respect that configuration.

On my device Xiaomi Redmi 9 with Android 12 AOSP it's working like this:
When configuring recording format to opus, sample rate to auto, the resulting recording is samplet at 48 kHz with audio bitrate about 32 kbps.
When configuring recording format to opus, sample rate to 44100, resulting recording is sampled at 48 kHz with audio bitrate about 280 kbps. The system encoder won't apparently accept any value for opus codec than the default. I have tried 44100 and 16000 so far. The bitrate 280 for 48 kHz recording is an overkill I think. The opus codec is tuned for low bitrates and I'd prefer 32 kbps or 40 kbps bitrate for casual recordings, up to 128 kbps for high quality recordings.
When configuring recording format to AAC, sample rate to 16000, the resulting AAC file is sampled at 16000 Hz with audio bitrate 96 kbps thus it's not accepting very high bitrate of 16000 *32 *2 at all.

Most likelly the best way to move forward would be to add an ability to configure bitrate and number of audio channels too so we would be able to make stereo recordings. Now many devices do support stereo recording.

Consider using HE_AAC encoder as it supports higher quality recording than AAC.

Also for stereo recordings without applying the default compression and limiter processing it would be nice to configure recording source. This is device specific but I think at least these should be selectable:
MediaRecorder.AudioSource.DEFAULT, MediaRecorder.AudioSource.MIC, MediaRecorder.AudioSource.CAMCORDER, MediaRecorder.AudioSource.UNPROCESSED,

Since API 29 there are some new microphone related settings. I haven't seen a device which I might be able to make some good use out of with but that might become important in the future as well.

I might be able to work on this however I'd like to know your opinion on this first.

Record You doesn't prompt you to enable the Notification permission when you launch the app, or at any point, which leads you to not seeing the notification that pops up when you do a screen recording.

It should prompt you on the first launch, or, if that's possible, when you first attempt a screen recording.

Steps to reproduce

open settings

Expected behavior

normal

Actual behavior

A gray stripe appears at the bottom, which is not pretty. The settings menu has risen to the middle of the screen and should be at the bottom.

EDIT_01:
I can do it with Open Camera with "Unprocessed" as an audio source, but I need audio only.
You may look into how Open Camera implemented the feature.

it is the same as wav but more open source friendly

Currently, just like with audio recording, a screen recording will be saved in the app's internal storage by default. This is a great feature for audio recordings if you don't want to expose them to other apps with the storage permission.

That said, by virtue of the fact that Record You doesn't have a built in video player to be able to view actual screen recordings, it currently doesn't make sense to save a screen recording there.

This can be a significant issue if someone doesn't realize that and they record their screen, only to realize that the screen recording is "trapped" in the app's internal storage, where they can't view it or export it.

Hey @IzzySoft,
you probably didn't see that one coming ;)

Yet another app that would like to be included in your repo, this time it is about recording audio. It might get support for recording the screen too in the future, so it'd be possible the descriptions will need to be updated one day (if they don't update automatically, not sure anymore).
There are no screenshots yet, I'll probably add them within this week (adding changelogs is not planned).

Thank you in advance!
Cheers

Describe your suggested feature

now you can only "end" the video recording.
But it's not comfortable

example of use:
Let's say that during a long recording I wanted to have some tea. I have to stop recording. I press the pause button. when I come back, I have to continue the existing recording. Otherwise it will have to be stitched together for a long time with proprietary video editors (if I completely stop recording and the app saves it as a file). this is a totally bad alternative to pausing. i can also think of lots of reasons to ""pause" and then continue the previous recording". for example just tired of recording and need a rest to continue recording. You get it. I need a pause. To be able to turn it on from the notification and from the app. There will be a "pause" button. And during the pause, in place of the "pause" button would be a "continue previous recording" button. The "stop recording" button should be near.

Hello,
Please consider implementing android.provider.MediaStore.RECORD_SOUND intent so it's possible to start audio recording directly from supported apps. This should output uri to the recorded file when successfull.
I know Markor and FairEmail are examples of apps that are calling this intent in order to record sound.

The value of this app would increase if the above mentioned feature (trim start and/or end of recording) was added.

Also, a feature to automatically record all phone conversations (although unlikely and I'm not even sure if technically possible), would be awesome.

When you record audio, and you haven't granted the microphone permission to the app, or have set it to "ask every time", it prompts you to allow it.

When you try to do a screen recording, however, it doesn't seem to prompt you.

Would make it easier to test without deleting app data

please add "no template issue" or add preset text to the issue. But to be able to open it in the github app. I have to go to the browser, register there, get acquainted with the new interface, this is VERY inconvenient.

I haven't been able to narrow down a root cause for this yet (still looking), but it seems that Record You doesn't consistently start a screen recording. When the screen recording is successful, you'll see the screen recording notification on the top bar, as well as the full blown notification if you've granted the app the notification permission. However, a lot of the time when you start a screen recording, you get neither, and when you stop the screen recording, no file is generated (possibly because it never started recording in the first place).

it records on a regular microphone in the phone
