Record Your Screen Effortlessly for Tutorials, Meetings, and Presentations

The Online Screen Recorder can capture system audio for quick tasks directly in the browser. However, system sound recording depends on the browser sharing settings, not only the recorder interface. After clicking Start Recording, the browser sharing pop-up will appear, and you need to enable “Also share system audio.” If you can’t enable this, the recording may capture video only without application or browser sound. This is commonly required when recording videos, meetings, tutorials, or audio from browser tabs. If you need more stable audio-source control for longer recordings, Aqua Demo is the better option.

Start by preparing the application or webpage you want to demonstrate before recording. Since you want to make a product demo or tutorial, you need to use Aqua Demo. It includes annotation tools, cursor highlighting, and mouse effects that are important for creating tutorials. Also, enable recording the screen and microphone together so viewers can clearly follow both the visuals and your explanation. Keep the target window focused during the recording to avoid unnecessary distractions or accidental notifications.

MP4 is usually the best format for screen recordings because it works well on most devices, browsers, editing software, and social media platforms. It also provides a good balance between video quality and file size. Both the Online Screen Recorder and Aqua Demo support MP4 for easier sharing and playback. If your editing software or device requires a different format, you can use Video Converter to convert the file afterward. Converting the recording may also help reduce compatibility issues during editing or uploading. For most tutorials, meetings, and presentation recordings, MP4 is the practical default choice.

The Online Screen Recorder is best for quick browser-based recording without installing desktop software. It works well for short tutorials, simple demos, and quick screen-capture tasks. Aqua Demo is more suitable for long recording sessions, repeated workflows, and projects that require advanced controls. It provides features such as custom recording regions, stable system audio control, annotations, screenshots, scheduled recording, and post-recording editing. It is also useful when you need more consistent performance for tutorials, presentations, or production-style recording tasks. If your workflow involves more than basic browser capture, Aqua Demo is the better choice.
