Add to Chrome — record screen, window, or tab with mic

When Chrome cannot share a surface

Chrome’s share dialog decides what you can record. Some surfaces never appear, or the picture stays black. That is usually the browser or OS policy, not a missing button in the extension.

What to try

  1. Switch source: tab instead of screen, or window instead of tab.
  2. Reload the page and start again so the picker refreshes.
  3. Check that another app is not already capturing the same display.
  4. On multi-monitor setups, select the display that actually shows the UI.
  5. Avoid restricted URLs such as chrome:// pages when you expected a normal site.

Still stuck?
