so … the last LGC howto for android was in 2012… if this is defunct/no longer updated; perhaps they should diaf or make a archives to throw it and others in? otherwise, i’d like to know how to do stuff in android…
I watched the screen capture tutorial and it is outdated indeed!
I’ve successfully recorded Android games (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xd7McKqgtFg) using the screenrecord command (http://developer.android.com/tools/help … reenrecord) but this command has a hardcoded time limit of 180 seconds, which is stupid and does not record sound (I recorded the sound separately then mixed it back together). I can’t even use this command anymore on my Nexus 7 since I downgraded to Jelly Bean but so far it’s the only method I’ve tried that produces good results. I’ve tried a few capturing apps from the Play Store and they were all crap.
I feel the only way to do proper screen capture on Android is to get a Chromecast and a HDMI capture card, which is not the cheapest solution. There is also the Twitch streaming feature Pedro uses for Heartstone but I don’t think that’s available on other devices than the Shield. Final option, for the bravest: recompile Android without the stupid time limit (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2193 … oid-kitkat) but that still requires recording sound separately…
