hi vecio,

first of all thanks for your app and the efforts you put into!

i encourage and appreciate anyone in android development, bringing benefits to our community! :highfive:

but i have to admit i'm not a fan of your distribution form as it is also not conform with the xda forum rules:

excerpt:

i dont want to sound like a smartass or something but i dont think your google+ community meets the above criterias to use it as a distribution medium.

the easiest (and also most preferred) method would be to include the apk in the first post, so any xda member would benefit :good:

again i want to make clear there is no offence meant in my post and i wish you all the best for the future mate! :fingers-crossed:
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Thanks, I've read through all these rules.

Many famous others have been distributing app through Google Play at XDA. And I'm distributing through the Google Play too.

I hate the Google Play testing mechanism, but I cannot change it, users must join the Google+ community or a Google group to opt in as testers.

However I don't think join the community is a kind of registration, because installing from Google Play is not treated as registration, while it requires the user to have a Google account.

Finally, I actually hate the Google+ community mechanism, it's difficult to use, and I have to teach many users to join it at first. But I just cannot change it if I want to distribute testing apps at Google Play.
[Android Apps and Games] Khameleon:
Is there an APK for this? I tried downloading but it told me my device is not supported. I wanna try running the APK to see if it works.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Try this to get the latest version https://shou.be/d/Shou.apk
[Android Apps and Games] Khameleon:
Ok got it. The airplay is not working for me though. Is there something i need to do to get it to work?
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Then what's the problem?
[Android Apps and Games] Jovistyle:
The app is not working form me on Optimus 4X HD with CM11 (I'm using dalvik). It's start the record but don't stop and I can't reproduce too.

[Android Apps and Games] johnnydj:
this is THE BEST android screen recorder ever.

Will it ever have a feature to mirror your screen to your computer screen?
[Android Apps and Games] marianop89:
LOL! It already have that feature. Try "AirPlay" with "AirServer" for Window 7, 8 and 8.1. Works GREAT!

Hello, what's the optimal settings for nexus 5 in screen recording?

source engine?

encoding engine?

thanks ^____^
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Phantom and Hardware, leave others default
[Android Apps and Games] drigz08:
Perfect, I tried that and it is buttery smooth..
[Android Apps and Games] Droidlover123:
[MENTION=5441957]vecio[/MENTION] is phantom engine not available on all devices?
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
It should be available for all 4.2+ devices.
[Android Apps and Games] clubtech:
Any idea when audio is coming to airplay mirroring ?
[Android Apps and Games] drigz08:
Here is a sample of Order and Chaos Online PvP arena gameplay recorded using Shou on my Nexus 5, Android 4.4.2

Settings: 720p, 2mbps bitrate, internal sound recording, I could use a higher bitrate, but this is just a sample, so 2mbps for this one!

Please watch in HD :)

another amazing pinoy's work. will try on my GNex running PA4. will report back soon.
[Android Apps and Games] jarylc:
Hello, I may have a little bug.

Whenever I start recording/screencasting, all audio from my speakers/earpieces will be completely muted while having the internal audio (mic works normally, but I personally dislike recording from mic) recorded at 192kbps and 48000 (44100 doesn't allow the recorder to start for internal). HOWEVER, upon checking the recording, there is apparently sound. It is as if the recorder is a connected earpiece itself and directs sound outputs only to the app and does not also direct it to at least one of the physical outputs of the phone.

Here are my phone details:

Galaxy S4 LTE (i9505)

Android KitKat 4.4.2

KOT49H ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2557353)

KT-SGS4 24/02/2014 Kernel (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2297379)

Xposed Framework, GravityBox, Viper4Android​

If you would require my settings for video section it would be:

MKV

Phantom

Hardware

Auto

720P

30 FPS

4 Mbps

Unchecked

Checked​

I was thinking that Viper4Android or FauxSound (in-built in the kernel) causes some conflicts. It's just my assumption though. I tried disabling Viper4Android by killing it and changing the Music Effects settings in the sound settings back to the stock MusicFX and it was still the same. I haven't tried uninstalling Viper4Android drivers though.

Any help on this issue would be appreciated, thanks!

Oh, and a random question, does this app use the in-built screen recording functionality in KitKat if we are on 4.4+?

Also, I have just sent the logcat over to shou@0xa7.com.
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Got it, I will try to release a patch today to fix this problem. Thanks for the feedback.
[Android Apps and Games] billy_cater:
waiting ....... :D
[Android Apps and Games] ezknives:
Installed recorded about 60sec to test it stopped it chose open get an error saying that it cannot be played.. file in the folder is 1kb and cannot be played on stock video player or MX player... now I can start recording but not stop it the settings button will work the "x" will just no response from the pause button... this was my last hope as screen cast and SRC doesn't work... even paid versions... on stock deoxed 4.1.2 xt907 RAZR m...
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Thanks for trying Shou. I think your problem is an known bug. You may try to reboot your device and try it again, or try to change the Output format to MPEG2/TS.

Most important, if you can post some logcat output it will help a lot.
[Android Apps and Games] ezknives:
Thank you kindly for your reply... I have done what you suggested yet I am unable to see if that works as I am unable to stop and save the recorder... I've also disabled hw overlays and force GPU rendering but again can't stop it to test... I have also uninstalled and reinstalled... idk

I just read a walkthrough on logcat... I still have no idea on how to get you that...
[Android Apps and Games] megasoft78:
I'm using a Galaxy Nexus and it's lagging a bit. I imagine is the device too slow.

Could you please explain the meaning of source and target engine? Any difference in performance?
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Thanks for the feedback. I've included some explanation at the official FAQ page https://shou.tv/pages/faq

I've tested Galaxy Nexus too, it's too slow. I don't know why yet. It's even much slower than my old Galaxy S I9000.:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] megasoft78:
It's probably a mix of the speed and high resolution screen. :(
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Try to use Memory source engine, and Native target engine. Choose lower frame rate and resolution.

I'll borrow my friend's Galaxy Nexus to see if the performance can get substantial improvements
[Android Apps and Games] Reenee:
Thanks for sharing. Really appreciate your work. I tried this on my note1717m. It does work much better than some of the screen recorder apps available in store. Only issue i had is that my phone becomes a little laggy. I was trying to record candy crush game and it seems a bit laggy.

Is there a anything i can do to get rid of lag?

Altogether, great job and best part is that you shared this for free. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Thanks for the feedback. The performance should get a bit improvement in the future.
[Android Apps and Games] r4v3rr:
Some inverted color on 720p and broken video on 480p. Share to instagram failed. Closing in notification doesn't close app. But awesome idea can't wait for future releases. Just what I've been looking for.

(Using i9300/AOKP 4.2.2/googymax)
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Thanks for the feedback. This information is very important to me. I need something to confirm:

1. Could you provide a screenshot or upload your recorded video to youtube?

2. You mean the 720P can work, without any other issues besides the color problem? Can you try several more times to confirm this?

3. The broken video on 480P, what broken? I think you may encounter a known bug, so the video can't be played, and the close doesn't work then.

If so, I guess you can record video until you reboot your device.

Really thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] r4v3rr:
480p playback

720p (working but blue and yellow inverted)
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
The 720P should be easy to fix, but have no idea to the 480P issue yet.

Any other issues? What about the performance?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] r4v3rr:
Playback is a bit choppy. But all in all for a 0.2 this is a good app. The UI is nice and simple. Quick, to the point and hopefully after some fixes very effective. One tiny suggestion: a pro version that Start only in status bar there is no need for the home screen apart from adds. I don't think it would be an issue for the service to be started upon opening the app with a toast maybe? Just my 2 cents :). Cool app!
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Great idea, indeed Shou is designed to start the service directly at first. But to make user clear what's happening, just add an activity.

I'm considering add an option to bypass the activity in settings.
[Android Apps and Games] WhiteNeo:
Working great on my Xperia V :)

Didn't notice any bugs except for the internal sound recording (doesn't work despite having stereo enabled)..

Video recording however works even while playing MC4, but the game is a little laggy while doing so. Perhaps you could make the app a little less cpu consuming.. :)

However, thank you anyways for a great app that I have been looking for for months! :)
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Really appreciate your feedback.

I've confirmed the internal sound recording bug, wish I'm lucky enough to fix it today.
[Android Apps and Games] balamu96m:
Thanks for keeping it ad free! Great app!
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Hi bro, sorry to reply late, been busy to write code. This is not a bug, at least I can't fix it in the near future.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] jarylc:
Is it a ROM, kernel, or KitKat issue or my phone is not supported?

I doubt its my phone because I saw someone with i9505G saying that it works.

Or is it meant to be that way?

Thanks for the reply though. I'll try and troubleshoot it myself if I can do so. I'm planning to swap ROM again soon anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
No, it's not your issue, it's meant to be that way right now
[Android Apps and Games] jarylc:
Oh okay. Thanks anyway haha.

Well, there goes my hopes of recording rhythmic games with clearer sounds not recorded using the mic :P
[Android Apps and Games] Droidlover123:
hey bro....

sorry i dont know if it has been explained before...

when i try to use mirroring it just shows a ip address in status bar without port number!and when i again click on mirror to browser option it says :"connecting to wifi network" ....

pls if u can help! thanks

TW i9505 record stops halfway

Hey [MENTION=5441957]vecio[/MENTION]

I've reverted back to TW i9505 lately due to some reasons, now recording seems to stop halfway with the same settings. Internal audio recording seems to be the cause as disabling it makes the recording work fine.

I've found this line in the logcat that may be of use. I'll send in the "full" one to your email in awhile.

W/ServiceManager( 277): Permission failure: android.permission.CAPTURE_AUDIO_OUTPUT from uid=10161 pid=4523
E/ ( 277): Request requires android.permission.CAPTURE_AUDIO_OUTPUT
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
It seems not this issue, and your logcat doesn't include the crash information.
[Android Apps and Games] jarylc:
Hmm it doesn't really crash, like it doesn't show the app has crashed dialogue. Just the daemon stops by itself but the recording notification shows that it's continuing just that the file size freezes until I start the daemon again. Basically it just stops recording.

I'll see when I have more time to send a full logcat to you.

[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Try hardware encoding?
[Android Apps and Games] spk_xda:
First things first, thank you for sharing the app. Screen mirroring feature without any additional hardware is an awesome idea and that is the main reason for me to try this. My device is a AT&T Samsung galaxy s3 I787, rooted with CM 10.1.3 android 4.2.2.

I downloaded the app, granted root permission and without changing any settings and with the daemon service running, I tried the screen mirroring option with an DLNA enabled TV. In the notification bar, I see the service running and the timer running with the pause button, but I don't see anything in the TV.

I rebooted the device, tried changing the video output format as mp4 but I think these settings are for video recording and playing back the same.

Please let me know if DLNA mirroring will work and any settings to be modified. If needed, I can capture the log cat and send it to you. Thanks you op.
[Android Apps and Games] savvas_sid:
I am pretty sure that I ve tried every possible settings combination including hardware encoding. So answer is no it doesnt work on my gti9105p even with this setting. :| kepp me informed

[Android Apps and Games] jarylc:
Hey man, I've downloaded the latest version recently. However I still have the same problem... I've tried to install the audio drivers but it gave me a failure message. Could it be clashing with Viper4Android? I'll give u a logcat once I'm free. Now having work haha.
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Now with the latest version, software encoding should work too.

How can I mirror from my phone to my tablet via BubbleUPnP and Shou?
[Android Apps and Games] raze_da_noize:
Umm wth...

I used this to record game plays on my android. Successfully recorded. One problem. Why do the files save as mkv files instad of mp4. Mkv doesnt even work on android. You would have to get another video player. Also No im not being lazy and complaining because I dont want to get another video player. Im complaining because my editing app doesnt play mkv. So after I edit and watch the preview the screen is just frozen.
[Android Apps and Games] SPIDERTECH:
Use on NVIDIA Shield

So I downloaded this on my nvidia shield yesterday and it sort of works. No audio at all will record. If you set the audio to anything other than mute it will kill the system audio and crash the app. I have ONLY been able to record with muted audio. I was really hoping the OS audio recording would work :(
[Android Apps and Games] vecio:
Sure, have fixed this bug, will release it soon, or please send mail to hello@shou.tv to get it early
[Android Apps and Games] fox_river:
ok waiting for the update :) you should put it on google play
[Android Apps and Games] Oxious119:
Sadly screen mirroring doesn't work. I tried all kind of settings but it doesn't show anything on my Samsung TV. The daemon runs, I can select my TV, the notification says it started mirroring but my TV stays the same.

Nonetheless great work so far. Keep it up.

Edit: just tested on an apple TV box and it works great with my nexus 4 running 4.4.2. Just audio didn't work on the TV and instead still played on my phone.

Hello vecio,

thank you for your great work. :good:

I have a question, with the software BubbleUPnP I am able to stream music and video to my in car entertainment system Audi MMI 3G+.

I gave a try to use Shou to mirror the android screen to the MMI 3G+, but the MMI does not recognize Shou as an UPnP Server.

What is the difference between Shou and BubbleUPnP? :confused:

With BubbleUPnP I can browse through directories and play videos and music from my mobile phone.

Best regards

This is the best app for recording your android screen ! Best framerates and best quality you could imagine. All that for free ?!?!

And a stupid question : Where can I find logs so I can send them to you (if you need them of corse ). Thanks :)
