Fix a recording that won’t start
If nothing happens when you press record, check the message under Recording controls: permission, disk space, or no display are the usual causes.
Where to find it
Studio sidebar → Recording controls
How to do it
Open the studio. Any problem shows in orange under Recording controls and on the Screen recording page.
For a permission message, allow Screen Recording or Microphone, then quit and reopen FrameCast.
For “Not enough disk space to record”, free up space on your Mac and try again.
If ⇧⌘R does nothing, check Hotkeys in the menu bar is on, or press ⌃H.
Good to know
- When disk space runs low during a take, FrameCast stops and saves it before the disk fills, so you keep what was recorded.
- A team owner or admin can turn recording off for a team. Switch to your personal account to record.
