CANVID provides two recording options: display capture and window capture. Select the one that best suits your needs:

Canvid's Recording Selection Window
  1. Display Capture:
    • Choose this option to record everything visible on your screen.
    • Ideal for capturing multiple windows, the taskbar, or any other visual elements.
  2. Window Capture:
    • Use window capture to focus on a single window or program.
    • Use this when you want to highlight specific content without accidentally including unrelated visual elements.

Choosing any of the two options takes you to CANVID's Recording Preview to check the screen, microphone, and webcam before you start recording.
