Looking for the right tools is sometimes tricky.
Here’s a list of free software I found useful:
Purpose | Tool | Details |
Screen capture with Audio | ShareX | Easy to use, with excellent video and audio quality. Continues recording even when screen is in power savings mode. Works well for long recordings (>2 hours). Note: after recording is done, it can take a while for the final video to be ready for viewing. |
Cloud storage access | rclone | Enables seamlessly accessing storage from multiple vendors, covering pretty much every big storage vendor (Google Drive, OneDrive, S3, BackBlaze, Alibaba to name a few). Enables two or more simultaneous mounts of different storages (and specifically, Google Drives). |
Download YouTube videos | youtube-dl | Simple command line download of videos, playlists and channels from YouTube |
