I spent about 10 minutes on ChatGPT getting that name.
- Allow Apple TV to be connected to Mac.
- Record the contents of the Apple TV (as well as any audio from the microphone and Apple TV).
- Support screen sharing to Discord (to stream the class).
- Compress any recordings using HandBrake.
- There isn't much to it
- It's a button to start/stop
- A file name field
- A sidebar spamming logs so you know how badly (or well) things are going.
Yeah, do that. I personally use a Ugreen one that seems to be working pretty well.
As the executable path is hard-coded as "/opt/homebrew/bin/HandBrakeCLI"
, it has to be installed via Homebrew.
brew install handbrake
Download here (paid).
It isn't strictly necessary but it makes it possible to pipe multiple microphones into the app's microphone, as well as to stream that over to Discord.
Download here (free, kind of, but you might need to pay).
Once again, not strictly necessary but it comes in handy when teaching in a noisy classroom.
