Feature suggestion: Support recording portrait mode screen

Sat Sep 18, 2021 7:58 pm

Hi,
today I observed that I cannot record my portrait screen monitor (1080x1920) in a proper scale.

Generally, the software works fine for my landscape monitors, but it has troubles recording my 1080x1920 screen (1920x1080 in a portrait mode). The recorded video is missing information at the top and bottom, and it adds black bars to the left and right side. This bug only occurs for the "Screen" and "Area" mode, but it records "Window" in the right scale.

Here are the screenshots to picture my description: The same problem was described by someone in another forum thread, and I did manage to record the screen in a right format using the suggested OBS Studio; however, I would love to see Action! being able to do the same.

Hello. You can record in portait mode using Window recording mode. Switch to Window recording mode and click "Select application to record".
On top of the window picker select "Share your display" and select disaplay you wish to record.

Hi Piotr,

Thank you for the answer, and sorry for a late reply, but I did not receive a notification.

Indeed, the solution you suggested is what I was looking for!
