spyder-screencast

screencast plugin for spyder 5

spyder-screencast is based on QScreenCast

Installation

conda/mamba (preferred)

(myenv) me@mybox:~$ conda install -c conda-forge QScreenCast 

Note: that QScreenCast needs pyqt >= 5.12, conda-forge has this (eventhough semi-broken) hence the -c conda-forge. The anaconda channel still only has the 5.9.2, but that version doesn't have the Qt Multimedia backend, and QScreenCast needs that, so until pyqt 5.15.3 is out, pure anaconda users are left in the cold 😭

pip

me@mybox:~$ pip install QScreenCast

Note: The pip installation is not tested so much, we test the conda installation, but as the project is released to PyPi and a conda-forge feedstock 'monitors' the Python Package Index, it should work (if pip can resolve the dependencies that is)
