Video recording in Wayland (Gnome) is giving me all sorts of problems.
Kooha, no matter what setting i change, gives me a recording with frozen images, i opened an issue in their Github, but it's been a week and no support https://github.com/SeaDve/Kooha/issues/242 And looking at the frequency of updates, the project looks unmaintained.

Thanks, I'll figure out how to set all that up eventually. Going to try out Kooha for now.

cursor is stuck on the left top side of the screen when recording under xorg (it doesn't happen on wayland) anyone know how to solve?
And, just to be sure: there exist "Kooha" simple screen recorder. Are you sure that you don't use it and instead use built-in gnome recorder that you can access at top panel? If you don't use it and bug still exist, but need to share screen record, then you can use Kooha https://github.com/SeaDve/Kooha (as flatpak from flathub) flatpak install flathub io.github.seadve.Kooha

Tried Wayland again, solid enough that I might actually switch (Kubuntu 22.10, NVIDIA)
Kooha works for me.

XWayland 22.1 Planned For Release Next Month
The spec is designed to be minimal and it's expected for compositors to work together and add additional features, for example here is the tool for screen recording on wlroots compositors (sway and what most wayland WM's use) https://github.com/ammen99/wf-recorder, even though most people claim wayland doesn't support screen-recording/screenshotting. We just don't have a universal tool for that that works on all compositors, pipewire however seems to be coming to fill that niche.

This is my "Sway is fantastic" post
As for screen recording, I’ve used wf-recorder (IIRC, not at PC atm) several times the past couple of weeks, works equally well.

Think Twice Before Abandoning Xorg – Wayland Breaks Everything
A workaround for sharing the whole screen is to use wf-recorder [1], which supports capturing the whole screen, and feeding its output to a virtual V4L2 device using v4l2loopback [2]. Software that is able to capture from a V4L2-compatible webcam (i.e. most) can them capture from the virtual device without knowing anything about Wayland. It's not exactly the most CPU-efficient way of doing things, but if you can afford the cycles it works very well!

ffscreencast – a screencast CLI-tool with video overlay and multimonitor support
You want to use wf-recorder. This is in my sway config:
> set $screenrecord wf-recorder -g "$(slurp)" -f ~/screenshots/mov-$(date +"%Y-%m-%d--%H-%M-%S.mp4")
> bindsym Shift+Control+F6 exec $screenrecord
> bindsym Ctrl+Shift+BackSpace exec killall -s SIGINT wf-recorder
Hitting shift-control-f6 will spawn slurp which lets you click and drag to set the area you want to record. This will then launch wf-recorder and record the selected area, saving to ~/screenshots/mov-${date}. You can use ctrl-shift-backspace to kill the recorder and end recording.
