The stim-buff-api is Linux DRM/KMS. The provider is Linux itself. This provider
|
|
|
|
|
enables direct capture of frames at the kernel level, so it works for both X11
|
|
|
|
|
and Wayland. There is a program called GPU Screen Recorder that can use this
|
|
|
|
|
API to capture specific windows on X11, but window-specific capture does not
|
|
|
|
|
work with Wayland. However, whole-screen capture works on both graphics
|
|
|
|
|
servers.
