Screen recorder app (with sound!) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've been searching around for awhile for a screen recorder and haven't found any great ones. The best I tried was Screencast, but I couldn't figure out how to get it to record sound as well.
I'm trying to record myself playing a game I developed, so it needs to have very high framerate (Screencast does this well) and also record the game sound.
Using the simulator isn't an option due to the way the game is controlled.
Can anyone recommend something for this?

You will try Z-ScreenRecorder ... search for this in market

The free version didn't record sound either, does the paid version include sound?

Do you have to set it up somehow? I just downloaded it and ran it with the game, it recorded the video perfectly but it never had any audio with it.

It only records sound by using your microphone so not ideal for in game sound though great for tutorials etcetera.
Go to its settings screen and its about half way down the page, a check box saying record audio. When ticked it records via the microphone.

Oh yeah I saw that. I'm looking for something that can record the game sound in a "what u hear" style, so the final video will be more professional.

i've tried z-screen recorder but i cannot get sound recorded either. im looking for pretty much the same thing this guy is after and cannot find anything that will record sound properly. has anyone found anything that works for this purpose yet?

There is nothing that does it. Looked into it myself though the developer of screencast is trying to do so as far as I know.
For now only workaround would be record video, send audio via headphone socket to an external recording device (pc line in maybe) then use virtualdubmod on pc to dub the audio over the video.

You would connect your phones headphone socket to your pc's line input with a cable (usually both will be 3.5 mm jack plug connections) and use a recording app like audacity on your pc.
Press record then all the audio will be recorded by the pc. When finished you can trim the audio to make it start at the same place your video does and use virtualdubmod or a similar pc program to dub the audio over the video.

Did anything come of this? I'm trying to do a commentary + in app sound mix, and you think that the mic would be fine for that. But no, it's all tingy and i'm really after an in app sound recorder.
Although this PC line in seems like a valid idea, I could use record mic sounds on screencast for the voiceover and the pc line in for the app audio[assuming they work in tandem]

Are you sure you mean the screencast on play store needing root access?
Nothing else comes even close to competing with it so surprised you find it crap. Perhaps your phone specs are low or you need to change screencasts settings?

It might be easier to record your video seperately then dub your audio on after using a pc.
Virtualdubmod can add audio to video, and audacity can be used to record or edit audio and so you could mix your audio with that then dub onto video with virtualdubmod. Both programs are free.
There's a free audio app on market called virtual recorder (its icon is a cassette tape) which records high quality audio on an android device. You could try that for your audio recording.

I doubt any app can record smooth while playing a cpu intensive game like that. In such a situation only smooth way to record would be hook phones video output to a dvd recorder and do it that way.

[Q] Audio Input Level in Video Recording?

Hi Guys. I seriously looked into this question, but couldn't find the answer anywhere.
...
I was in a music festival in Latvia, called POSITIVUS, and I was photographing and filming the living hell out of this festival. Afterwards, I was watching the filmed material and the sound by filming the bands perform, was... one word - terrible. I was thinking - yeah, it was loud, so, no wonder. But then i saw the same band in practically the same footage filmed next to me, with my friends iPhone 4 and in his footage the sound was great. No noise, no speakers blasting horrible sounds.
...
SO, i was wondering... maybe someone knows how to limit the sound input in video recording so it wouldn't sound like the speakers are about to blow up.
...
Please dev's... could you look into this?

DEV's I am hoping for your help... Please, Devs...
I have the same problem. I've recorded a live concert and the sounds are terrible. I'm sure it is possible to fix that.
For sound recording only, I'm using Hi-Q MP3 recorder. This app allows to control volume input levels. The result is much better.
If there was a way to link the Hi-Q recorder to the video app as the default audio then we would be one step closer.....
Any Solution for this ???????????/
I have the same problem? Anybody can help????/

Audio lags behind Video stream

Not sure if it's just me, but when I'm watching video streams, anything from ESPN, YouTube, browser embedded videos, or HTC Media Streamer based content, Audio stream noticeably lags behind. About half a second actually.
Has anyone noticed this behavior, and what's the solution?
Thanks.
i've noticed it lags on the videos that you record. the audio is a little quicker than the video.
Yup that's exactly the case. Audio lags behind video in pretty much anything that's using HTC's native "Streaming Media Player". Massive and consistent lag.
Netfilx, WatchESPN, and similar third party apps don't lag as much though.

I'm talking anything, not only your camera content. If you get TubeMate and download any YouTube video onto your phone, and then play it with the default player, you'll notice a massive lag. Doesn't matter if HD or SD content. The phone is definitely NOT struggling to keep up.
The issue has to be within the actual OS settings.

interesting. wouldn't surprise me. do me a favor, go try MX Player. I've been using that on my Nexus 7 and love how it works. maybe that'll fix it? what does the stock app have that that doesn't, besides the ability to take a still shot picture?

Actually all the third party players seem to have the same issue. Used MX, VPlayer, Dice, BSPlayer, VLC.
This is clearly OS wide issue (at least on my unit). Has anyone experienced similar behavior on your DNA?
i dont see this on my DNA. i tried youtube and TWit live and voice and video is spot on.

In YouTube app lag isn't as drastic, but if you download the video and then watch, we're talking over 250ms. I also restored recently, same issue.
Am I the only one having this issue?!
i haven't downloaded any videos on to this thing so i really can't say lol
so wow, I was just watching a youtube video and yeah... the audio was slower than the video. I bet it has to do with the full HD screen.. what else could it be? ugh pretty damn annoying. this sucks because I'm anal as hell when it comes to audio and video lag...

I haven't experienced any of these issues. Sounds like an issue with TubeMate. I mean, you said streaming from YouTube was ok, but downloaded videos had lag. That, to me, sounds like a problem with your download program.

The nexus 10 has the same lag due to the screen resolution.

Even when streaming within YouTube app, the lag is present, it's just not as evident. However, when playing any content loaded onto the device, the lag is north of 250ms which is major!
Another example is my subscription to Futubox which has two ways of delivering HD content, browser flash based, and m3u8 where HTC MEdia Streamer handles the content natively. Flash plays perfectly in sync (although drains more battery), but m3u8, or rtmp/rtsp lags terribly.
I've tried the same exact m3u8 stream on an iPad 3 and a PC, no lag whatsoever, even when AirPlayed.
I simply mentioned TubeMate because it's the easiest way to grab video content onto the storage. Besides that, TubeMate downloads whatever the digital source is, could never be the cause if the issue.
This is OS level issue, and it's real.
so it seems screen resolution is the culprit. btw guys I've reported this to htc, and sent the link for this thread. They're in contact with me. I suggest you report it too

Finally! MIUI v8.11.15+ Builtin Screen Recorder has System Audio Recording!

Hi i'm here to ask why we still can not record internal audio for android 7+ versions? Is it hard to hack it? Android 6 CAN RECORD why from nougat to latest 8.1 we can NOT record internal audio? Is it still possible? Thank you!
I hope one day devs will look into it! It really helps while recording gameplays and streaming using just a phone!
Edit:
I have found the app that can record internal/system audio here
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.nick.app.screencast
BUT. . . it need ROOT access and Xposed framework and can only record for 30mins also you wont be able to hear sounds while recording and it has crackling sound for oreo! After installing the app goto xposed installer and enable the module then reboot check record audio and in audio source choose r_submix.
Video example
https://youtu.be/YX7GHkAc1ko
I hope someone fix this issues like be able to listen while recording and extend the recording time. Here's his github
https://github.com/Tornaco/ScreenCast
https://github.com/Tornaco/ScreenCast/releases
I don't know if it's open or closed source. Thanks!
Edit:
Finally Xiaomi added System audio/internal audio recoeding in their built in screen recorder app!
Only on MIUI 8.11.15 Above!
the strange thing is that in samsung devices this is possible (record only internal audio). -Galaxy C9 Pro with nougat. You could buy mobizen headphones to record internal audio ... or buy a samsung cell phone.

As far as my knowledge goes (not too far) currently there is no app that can record audio for android above than ,5.1.1 so my suggestion to you is just use a 3.5 mm audio jack and connect it to the source and receiver!

Try using Rec Me Screen Recorder from the playstore and download the app called internal audio plugin from the playstore as well.
With this app you can record internal audio while you can still hear gameplay..
Works with ANDROID NOUGAT AND OREO!!?
ROOT REQUIRED!!!
However the recorded internal audio is high quality but the audio that you hear while recording is very poor.

Install this app as system app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fooview.android.fooview
Then go to fooview settings developer settings and enable "internal audio recording"
This will set internal audio recording for all apps what use the android capture api, systemwide.

There are people who are so much stupid, that they do not understand and do not try to understand why such a price. Look at what functions there is in the appendix D*V Screen Record and compare with those functions that are in applications for 3 - 5 dollars, and then write. D*V Screen Record really records the video with the sound inside the device, without any speakers, microphones, bluetooth .......... Before I wrote my post, I tested 30 apps from the Play Store and they don't record video with internal sound. So who's here the fool? You or the guy who made the really necessary and working application? D*V Scrien Recorder can make a printscreen - but in other applications there is even no this function! D*V Scrien Recorder records in excellent quality and can immediately rassharivat this video for various services including YouTube and much more - so do not talk nastily without any facts and grounds! In occasion of greed - greedy you and same as you who want all for free. You know what can buy for $ 13 ??? one dish in a cafe or even half a dish for that money ........... So who's an idiot? So, here you greedy idiot.

+1 to this one, noted you need root like but been using this year's even purchased it twice
I use Advanced Audio Recorder from the Play Store. Uses both top and bottom mics and with a couple of settings changes, it sounds absolutely fantastic and can record to FLAC. Unprocessed sounds really clean, benefiting from good preamps (like in my old Samsung S9). https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pk.aar&hl=en_GB&gl=US
