It's a great tool. Easy to set up, neat interface, I fell in love with it 10 seconds after I installed it.
Keep up the good work, guys.
Pros:
-Great video quality
-Free
-Dark theme
-Minimalistic design
etc
Cons:
-Over 50% CPU usage while recording
The 50% CPU, isn't that kind of normal for screen recorders, especially with higher framerate settings?

I tested screen recording only.
I'm satisfied with solid recording functionality.
Mouse and click animation need some modification.
In working with MS PowerPoint, recoreded mp4 video needed to transcode.

It captures region,window,full screen. Small and clean interface. It uses ffmpeg for encoding.
Can capture full sreen and Google Sketchup window with Nvidia gpu, where OBS fails. Integrated keystroke and mouse click display. Elegant and intuitive UI.
