- Mac OS Catalina. I have two menu apps (Bartender 3 and Default Folder) which are asking that the screen recording preference be set in order to operate.
- Since QuickTime is 100% compatible with M1 Macs like MacBook Air, Pro, or Mini, it’s 100% working to free record screen with sound on those Macs. When I was running Mac OS X El Capitan, I saw we could free record our screen and upload it to YouTube for sharing or put it into PowerPoint or Keynote presentation. However, there was no sound.
- So, if you’re using macOS Catalina and macOS Mojave then you have to use this feature to record screen or video on Mac. With macOS Catalina and macOS Mojave, press Shift + Command (⌘) + 5 on your keyboard to see all the controls you need to record video and capture still images of your screen.
Ever since macOS Mojave (10.14), Soundflower, the go to free sound plugin that overcame Apple Quicktime’s inability to include audio to screen recordings has ceased working with subsequent macOS’.
Enable Screen Recording for YuJa Software Capture on macOS Catalina. Enable Screen Recording for the Software Capture for Apple Application. On your Mac, open. With macOS Catalina (10.15), Apple introduced new security and privacy features for your Mac. In order to capture screen recordings with the VidGrid recorder, you have to grant it access to the Screen Recording permission.
There’s now a fix for this in the form of Existential Audio’s virtual audio driver that allows applications to pass audio to other applications with zero latency.
Mac Os Catalina Support
You first need to download the BlackHole.vx.x.x.pkg from Existential Audio and follow the install process detailed at their BlackHole web site.Once you’ve successfully installed the BlackHole audio driver, all you then need to do is select “BlackHole 16ch” as the output device from your System Preferences > Sound > Output tab:
Alternatively, you can also toggle it from within your Volume menu in your macOS menu bar:
Once you’ve done that, please note that your system will no longer produce any sound output from its ordinary output device, so during your screen recording the system will be mute.

Launch Quicktime and start a New Screen Recording:
Select your recording area and then in the Options menu on the control pane, select BlackHole 16ch under the Microphone preferences:
Click Record to begin your screen recording.
