I'm trying to record our software in Chrome's mobile device emulator. The resolution for the hypothetical device is 1080 x 1920 (vertical orientation). I would like to be able to just record the emulation screen at full resolution. I know I could record my entire screen and just crop for the window showing the software, but then it does not record at the proper 1080 x 1920 resolution and looks blurry. Does anyone have any methods for recording just the emulation screen at full size?
Essentially, I want to record the red boxed area in full resolution (which should be 1080 x 1920) Chrome Screen Emulation Window
Thank you in advance!!
well, you can't "record" it in 1920/1080 because it literally isn't in that resolution. those pixels don't exist.
A few ideas come to mind -
Record on a 4k (or higher) monitor, the same area will have more pixels.
Literally rotate you display and record it in the correct orientation ("portrait"). it will be able to occupy MUCH more screen area, and the cropped-out area will be significantly smaller. therefore, the video dimensions will still be large.
Verify you're recording (and editing and exporting) in the highest resolution possible. that's how it looks like in obs studio:
Maybe use a Virtual Machine if you don't wanna mess up your desktop environment?
